History

Settlements along the Xinjing River appeared in the early Qing dynasty.[4] After the Boxer Rebellion, foreign powers built various amenities in the area, such as a golf course, gardens, mansions, and new roads.[5]

After the Proclamation of the People's Republic of China, administrative boundaries were redrawn. The area went under Changning district and was named after bridge built across the Xinjing.[3]
