History[edit]
The Pengzhou area is believed to have been inhabited since the Western Zhou period. Empress dowager Wu Zetian first set up Pengzhou in 686 AD (Tang dynasty). In 1337 AD, Hongwu Emperor (Ming dynasty) reduced Pengzhou to Pengxian, or Peng County (彭县; Péngxiàn). Peng County later became Pengzhou City in 1993.[4]
As of late, Pengzhou is still occasionally referred to as Pengxian, or Peng County, even in official publications.[5]
