The origin of Beiwu

In the Ming Dynasty, there were three places for berthing and repairing ships in the south, the middle and the north, with the middle dock in the middle and the North dock in the West. It is said that in the 13th year of Yongle, there was a big flood in this area, and the imperial court sent a fleet here for disaster relief for as long as two years. At that time, the ships were only berthed in three places, which were called Beiwu, Zhongwu and Nanwu respectively. They were windproof because they were high on all sides. There are relative records in the 13th and 14th years of Yongle in Ming Shilu.
