The urban area of Jingmen City has a population of about 400,000.It covers an area of 12,400 square kilometers and has a total population of more than 3 million. The maximum horizontal distance from east to west is 155 kilometers and the maximum vertical distance from north to south is 131 kilometers.[3] Jingmen is so named as in ancient times it was the gateway to Jingzhou, one of the Nine Provinces and means literally Gateway to Jingzhou.
Jingmen is located in the middle of Hubei, overlooking Wuhan in the east, the Three Gorges in the west, Xiaoxiang in the south, and Sichuan and Shaanxi in the north. It is known as the "Gateway to Jingchu".[3]
During the Second World War, the city was occupied by Japanese forces.
History
[edit]Jingmen has a long history. As early as the Neolithic Age, there were human settlements in the three major water systems of Hanjiang, Changhu and Zhanghe.[3]
Dangyang County was established in the Han Dynasty. In the 21st year of Zhenyuan of Tang Dynasty (805), Jingmen County was established and belonged to Jiangling Prefecture. The Jingmen Army was established in the Song Dynasty and became Jingmen Prefecture in the Yuan Dynasty. In the ninth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1376), it was reduced to Jingmen County and belonged to Jingzhou Prefecture. In the thirteenth year of Hongwu (1380), it was restored to Jingmen Prefecture. In the eleventh year of Jiajing (1532), it belonged to Chengtian Prefecture. In the Qing Dynasty, it was the Zhili Prefecture of Jingmen. In 1912, it was demoted to a county and belonged to Xiangyang Road. In 1932, it belonged to the Seventh Administrative Supervision District. In 1936, it belonged to the Fourth Administrative Supervision District.[4]

City layout
[edit]Dongbao District "downtown" is located about 3 hours away from Wuhan by bus or rail. A new train service was introduced from Jingmen to Wuhan in 2004. Jingmen is very close to many great tourist attractions such as Changban Slope of Three Kingdoms fame, the Wudang Mountains, and the Ming Tomb in Zhongxiang (a World Heritage site only an hour away). As it is located in central China, Jingmen is within easy reach of almost anywhere in the country, taking about 18 hours to either Beijing or Guangzhou by train, or two hours by train to Yichang, home of the Gezhouba Dam project and Three Gorges Dam. From here travellers can fly to many destinations.
The Dongbao District "downtown" has three north–south parallel roads:
- Xiangshan Dadao - The main avenue of Jingmen City. Most governmental buildings are here. Most civil functions, including hospitals, recreational areas, hotels, and the only university in Jingmen - Jingchu University of Technology, are alongside the road.
- Changning Dadao - All big telecommunication companies set up there branches here. Also there are many cellphone shops. The Jingmen railway station is to the north of Changning Dadao.
- Baiyun Dadao - The inner city part of National Highway 207, and a route to the Xiangfan-Jingzhou Highway.
- Jinxia Lu - Not a main avenue, but an important street in the city centre with shops and schools.
Crisscrossing these three roads are the roads Xiangshan 1st to 3rd, so by using these main arteries it is possible to go almost anywhere in Jingmen. Xiangshan 3 road leads behind the Jingmen Foreign Language school and doesn't actually provide a direct link from Xiangshan Dadao to Changning Dadao.
The main commercial area is Zhongtian Street (formerly Jiefang (Liberty) Road), a pedestrian only street, which also crisscrosses the three main roads.
Jingmen is surrounded by hills within easy reach.
Climate
[edit]Jingmen has a typical humid subtropical climate, with January the coldest month and July the hottest month. The temperature goes up to 38 °C at noon with uncomfortable humidity in July, but also goes below 0 °C in winter, with snow every year. Rainfall is high in April to September, with less in autumn and winter. The annual average temperature is 15.6-16.3 °C, the annual sunshine time is 1997-2100h, and the annual average precipitation is 804-1067mm.[9] The first member of the Jingmenvirus group was described in 2014 and named the Jingmen tick virus (JMTV) because it was isolated from a tick sampled in Jingmen.[10]
