Where is the Gulanling now?

Lanling County was founded in the Spring and Autumn Period. It is the earliest county established in Shandong Province. Initially, it was a pavilion in the state of Lu. In 380 BC, it was occupied by the State of Chu and established Lanling County. After the Qin Dynasty, the "Lanling County" was reserved in all previous dynasties, and it was specially set up here in Wei and Jin Dynasties.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Chu State competed for hegemony, and Lanling County was once the capital of Chu State. Because it is the earliest place in Shandong Province to set up a county government, and because of its high historical and cultural value, it is called "the first county in Shandong". Because of its superior geographical location and rich agricultural resources, it is also called "the hometown of vegetables in China".
