Luoyang is a famous historical city in China and one of the six famous ancient capitals in China. It is like a bright pearl, shining in the east of the world.

The Yellow River is the cradle of the Chinese nation, and Luoyang is the center of this cradle. Luoyang is easy to defend but difficult to attack, because it is in the world. Therefore, in the long history of China for thousands of years, many dynasties have successively established their capitals here. Luoyang is known as the "ancient capital of nine dynasties" at home and abroad.

The so-called "Nine Dynasties" has two meanings: First, it refers to numerous dynasties. In ancient China, "Nine" was the biggest. The second refers to the nine dynasties. The first statement is inaccurate. The second statement does not conform to historical facts. How many dynasties took Luoyang as their capital? According to historical facts and archaeological findings, I think that 15 dynasties, namely Xia, Shang, Western Zhou, Eastern Zhou, Western Han, Eastern Han, Cao Wei, Western Jin, Northern Wei, Sui, Tang, Wu Zhou, Hou Liang, Later Tang and Later Jin, all established their capitals in Luoyang.
