Lúxiāng

Luxiang was an ancient county in the low country south of Laizhou Bay. Its old walled town lay near Chengzi, between the waterways that drain toward the northern Jiaolai River. Under the Western Han, Luxiang belonged to Donglai Commandery and for a time was made a marquisate. Its neighbours included Pingdu to the north and Duchang across the river to the west. The ancient county name remained in local histories long after its administrative boundaries had changed.
