Before the city of Jiangmen, it was a territory of Xinhui County. As early as the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasty (1368-1388 AD), the market set was formed. At the beginning of the seventeenth century, Jiangmen Market flourished due to trade, and gradually became a trading center of the Pearl River Delta. Most of the products in the middle and lower reaches of the Xijiang River were distributed here. In 1904, Jiangmen was opened as a foreign -exotic port and set up Jiangmen North Street Customs as one of the eight prices in Guangdong. Western modern industry and culture have also been introduced and developed. In 1925, Jiangmen was designated as a provincial city. In 1931, the municipal system was revoked and returned to the jurisdiction of Xinhui County. Jiangmen liberated on October 23, 1949. In January 1951, Jiangmen was changed to provincial municipalities. In the future, it has been under the jurisdiction of the Guangdong Central Bank, Zhaoqing area, and Foshan area.
