Located in the south of Luoyang 13km, Xiangshan and Longmen Mountain are far away. The Yi River passes through the territory and looks like a natural gate, so it was called "Yi Que" in ancient times. During the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang of Yang Di climbed Mangshan Mountain in the north of Luoyang, saw Yi Que in the south of Luoyang from a distance, and said to his attendants, Isn't this the gateway of the real dragon emperor? Why didn't the ancients build their capital here? A minister replied obsequiously, the ancients didn't know they were just waiting for your majesty. Yang Di was very happy when he heard the news, so he established the East Capital of Sui Dynasty in Luoyang and put the main entrance of the palace in front of Yi Que. Since then, Aque has been used to being called Longmen.
