The name Chengguan (Chinese: 城关; lit. 'City Pass') refers to the region's historical location near the city gate.[2] Since a lot of places in China inherited their names from a time when city gates still existed, the name Chengguan appears in many of them, including Qingdao, Lanzhou, Lhasa, among others.
