Huangyuan
County, historically known as Dan ger, locates the source place of
the Huang River and the bottom of Sun and Moon Mountain, which is an
important connection between Qinghai and Tibet. Its economy
gradually rises up by farming since the Han Dynasty. Through the
exchange between tea and horse, the national trading gets its
prosperity. It also serves as the main corridor for southern Chinese
Silk Way. During the ruling period of Qianlong emperor and Jiaqing
emperor in Qing Dynasty, Huangyuan County is one of the most
important market for Qinghai, Tibet, Gansu and Xinjiang, famously
named as trading center around sea. At the end of Qing dynasty, with
both foreign firms and cloth companies being established by both
foreign and domestic traders, mainly from Tianjin and Beijing, Dan
ger’s economy reach its peak, and enjoy the reputation of “little
peking”.
