In Song Dynasty, there were five villages in Hanyang County, including Xini, Fengqi, Changle, beifengle and Julong.

In the Yuan Dynasty, there were four cities: Xi Ni, Chang Le, Bei Feng Le and Ju long.

From the beginning of Ming Dynasty to the end of Qing Dynasty, Fengqi and fengle were set up. In the northwest of the area, the villages of Xiaogan and Hanchuan are under the jurisdiction of Guangyang and Dachi townships.

From the first year of the Republic of China (1912), districts and townships were changed several times. In 1956, those belonging to Hanyang county were classified as Julong, Baiquan, Sandian, yadu, Shengli 5 townships and Xingou town (in May 1951, the area to the east of lijiadun was divided into Yikou District of Wuhan City, and soon turned into Jiejing township of Huangpi County, and then entered Wuhan City in 1956; from July 1951 to July 1952, except hujiatai and above areas on the North Bank of the Han River) The rest belong to Sanjiadian District of Wuhan city; those belonging to Xiaogan County belong to Xindu township; those belonging to Hanchuan County belong to Gaoge township.

In March 1958, after the completion of the main reclamation project of Dongxihu lake, 15 farms were set up successively, all of which were under the system of government enterprise integration and performed Township functions. In 1959, the system of Xingou town was restored.
