Linping used to be "peace near Zhejiang" in history, and it is a place with a long history. According to historical records, Linping had formed a large-scale residential area in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, and it flourished in the Southern Song Dynasty. However, with the passage of time, Linping's status gradually declined and it was surrounded by Hangzhou for a long time. After years of development, Linping has become an important part of Hangzhou.
Before Linping became Linping District, it belonged to Xihu District. With the acceleration of urbanization, Linping's economy and population are growing rapidly. In order to better promote the development of Linping, from 2065438 to June 2007, the State Council agreed to set up Linping District in Hangzhou, and formally upgraded Linping to a district-level administrative unit. This decision also marks a new step in Linping's development.
The establishment of Linping District not only changed the historical position of Linping, but also injected new impetus and vitality into its development. With the adjustment of administrative divisions, the development of Linping District has begun to receive more attention, and the government will also invest more resources and funds and implement more relaxed policies to promote the development of Linping. In addition, the establishment of district-level administrative units also provides a better opportunity for Linping's investment attraction and cultural tourism industry.
The establishment of Linping District has also brought more opportunities to Hangzhou. Linping District is located in the southwest of Hangzhou, connecting Hangzhou and Yiwu, and is rich in natural and human resources. Therefore, Linping District has also become one of the key points for Hangzhou to carry out foreign cooperation and attract investment.
Generally speaking, the establishment of Linping District provides a new opportunity and platform for regional economic development, and it is also one of the important measures to further optimize administrative divisions and promote urbanization in Hangzhou.
