Jingyuan County (simplified Chinese: 靖远县; traditional Chinese: 靖遠縣; pinyin: Jìngyuǎn Xiàn) is a county in the east of Gansu Province. It is under the administration of Baiyin City, and consists of two separate tracts of territory to the north and south of Pingchuan District. The northern tract borders Ningxia to the north. The southern area consists of an irrigated area around the Yellow River and the northern area is semi-arid highlands. The name originated from 'settling down in the borderlands'. Jingyuan belonged to the Yiqu kingdom, later becoming part of the Qin state. The county was first established during the Han dynasty in 114 BC. During the Western Wei it was known as Huizhou (会州), the defensive outpost of Huining County. It was located at the battleground of the Northern Song Dynasty and the Western Xia. In 1730 the county got its current name. In 1928, Jingyuan was transferred from Shaanxi to Gansu. More information...
