This was the beginning of the establishment of Nanning, which has a history of more than 1,680 years. In the eighth year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty (AD 634), Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty named it Yongzhou, and the abbreviation of Nanning as "Yong" came from this. In the first year of Taiding in the Yuan Dynasty (1314), the central government named the area "Nanning" in order to bring peace to southern Xinjiang, and Nanning got its name from this. In 1958, the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region was established, with Nanning as the capital of the autonomous region.

Nanning is Jinxing County, Jinxing County, Guangzhou. Jinxing County is located in Jinxing County, which is now Nanning. This is the first time that Nanning has become both a county-level and a county-level government.

Later, the five prefectures of Guangzhou, Guizhou (governing today's Guilin), Yongzhou (governing today's Nanning), Rongzhou (governing today's Rong County) and Annan were subordinated to the Lingnan Five Prefectures' economic envoys, and were named Lingnan Five Governors, with Guangzhou Governor as the governor. In the first year of Tianbao (742), Yongzhou was renamed Langning County. In the first year of Qianyuan (758), Langning County was renamed Yongzhou in the third year of Xiantong (862).

This means that Nanning has become a provincial-level administrative center during the Tang Dynasty. The territory of the Southern Han Dynasty still belonged to Yongzhou and returned to Chu.
After the Song Dynasty unified the whole country, Yongzhou belonged to Guangnan West Road and administered 7 counties including Xuanhua and Wuyuan. Nanning still belonged to Yongzhou and Xuanhua.

In April 1931, the original eighth and ninth districts were merged into the fourth administrative district, and the Office of the Administrative Inspectorate was located in Nanning. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, Nanning City was divided into seven towns: Xingning, Yongxi, Yongnan, Delin, Yongbei, Mofan and Ningwu (the original 10 towns were merged).

Ms. Jumulo Tibaijuka received the 2007 United Nations Habitat Award medal.
Nanning ranked first among the seven award-winning cities in the world in 2007 and was the only city in China to win this honor this year.
“Half city with green trees and half towers” ??is the most prominent urban feature of Nanning. Nanning has a history of more than 1,600 years and is a booming city. In the development of urbanization, Nanning City pays great attention to the living conditions and living conditions of vulnerable groups. Since 1995, the Communist Party of China has invested US$1.365 billion to implement the "Systematic Action to Improve the Living Environment of Disadvantaged Urban Groups", which has directly benefited more than 800,000 people, effectively improving the living environment and allowing disadvantaged groups to have equal opportunities. Enjoy the fruits of urban development. From 2002 to 2006 alone, more than 300 urban construction projects were completed and put into use in Nanning. 80 green space squares and 21 parks have been built, forming a 20-kilometer-long ecological national avenue. A 61.5-kilometer fast ring and an 81-kilometer fourth-ring road greening constitute two major ecological circles around the city.
Since 2002, the urban green space construction in Nanning City has increased significantly, the greening layout has become more reasonable, and the greening grade has been significantly improved. Statistics show that as of 2005, Nanning City's forest coverage rate reached 53.25%, the green coverage rate of built-up areas reached 55.80%, the green space rate reached 56%, and the per capita public green space area reached 12.10 square meters. In 2006, Nanning won the honors of "National Greening Model City" and "China Living Environment Award for Excellent Model City of Water Environment Governance".
Nanning citizens who have lived in green mountains and beautiful waters for generations have always "cherished green as gold" and worked hard to build a "Chinese Green City". First, they focused on "point" greening and built more than 80 green space squares and 21 green spaces. The park has built the world's largest camellia gene bank, the country's largest "Cycad Garden", the "Famous Tree Expo Park" embracing Nanhu Lake, and the "Flower World" garden industrial park spanning 5 square kilometers. The second is to do a good job in "line" greening. Street greening is moving towards "multi-section and multi-level". Tropical rainforests have settled in "clusters" on Minzu Avenue to form an ecological avenue of more than 10 kilometers long. A number of fruit streets and flower streets are full of southern gardens. In terms of appearance, the greening of the airport expressway shows the style of the gateway to the green city. The greening of the express ring road and the outer ring expressway surrounds Nanning to form an ecological corridor. Mountains, rivers, lakes, streams and greenery embrace each other to create a waterfront garden landscape. The third is to do a good job in "surface" greening, and promote the conversion of farmland into forests and forest network projects, biodiversity and forest resource protection projects, and rural ecological projects.
The fourth is to deepen the concept of "planning for greening, demolishing illegal buildings to restore green, opening walls to green, inserting green in every crack, and controlling pollution and turning green" to create garden-style courtyards and communities. The fifth is to advocate "donating money and trees" to create a memorial forest, and local legislation has designated "Tree Planting Month". After the "one belt, two axes, four rings, seven lines and four small" plan that is currently being implemented is fully realized, Nanning's garden ecology will surely reach a higher level.
Nanning is located south of the Tropic of Cancer, with abundant sunshine and rainfall, long summers and short winters, no scorching heat in summer, no severe cold in winter, and the annual average temperature is 21.8°C. Such a superior geographical climate has created Nanning's natural urban features of evergreen trees, blooming flowers and ripe fruits all year round. Starting from the characteristics of the city, we strive to build the "China Green City" brand. The green space rate, green coverage rate, and per capita public green space area in the urban built-up area have reached 55.8, 56, and 12.1 square meters respectively. In 1997, it won the title of "National Garden City" and ranked among the cities with the best landscaping in China.
Today's Nanning is already a garden city with rich subtropical scenery. Watch movies by the waterside of Nanhu Lake, enjoy the refreshing river breeze in Minsheng Square, watch pigeons in Nationalities Square, listen to folk songs in Folk Song Square, and dance gracefully in Chaoyang Square. The streets are full of evergreen trees, flowers blooming all year round, lively pigeons roaming the square, innocent and cute children playing in the meantime, the intimacy and harmony between man and nature, the warm sunshine in winter, and the dazzling lights at night, the soul rests here , thoughts fly here, and pictures of "China's green cities, beautiful homes, and happy lives" are displayed in front of the citizens of Nanning. In the words of Dr. Anna, Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations and Executive Director of UN-Habitat: Living in Nanning is a blessing!
