    When talking about old capitals, which city comes to your mind?Beijing, Xi’an or Luoyang? Now ,you may add Chengdu, capital city of Sichuan province, to that list.

Chengdu joined nine other old capitals in China on Oct 25, 2016. The list did not come from the government. The capitals are decided by experts at the Association(协会) of Chinese Ancient Capitai Studies. The decisions are usually then widely accepted by the public, reported The Paper website. Before Chengdu, the other nine cities were Beijing, Xi’an, Luoyang,Nanjing, Hngzhou,Kaifeng, Anyang,Zhengzhou and Datong.

Chengdu started to be a capital over 2,000 years ago. It had been the capital of five major regimes(政权),including the famous Shu (AD221-263) during the Three Kingdoms (AD220-280)period.

Chengdu has also done a good job keeping its history. The city has never changed its name in the past 2000 years. It never moved either. “This is not only rare in China, but also across the world,” said Xiao Zhenghong ,the president of the association.
