History
Jiangmen was forced to open up to western trade in 1904, after a 1902 declaration which made it a treaty port. During the subsequent period of global influence, a number of western-style buildings were constructed along the city's waterfront, especially in Chikan, and currently, the city's government is partaking in a renewal project to restore many of these buildings. Many were constructed by returned Overseas Chinese merchants, who used them as headquarters for newly-established chambers of commerce as well as housing.
On 6 August 1925, the Guangdong provincial government placed Jiangmen under direct administration of the provincial government. Jiangmen was given a city government on 26 November of the same year. In 1931, this status would be revoked, and the city was placed under the administration of Xinhui County.
The city was incorporated into the People's Republic of China on 23 October 1949, and was proclaimed a city in 1951. The city later became the prefectural seat for the Sze Yup ("Four County") region including Taishan, Kaiping, Xinhui, Enping. In mainland China but not abroad, the area became known as the "Five Counties" when Heshan was added to Jiangmen's jurisdiction.
In June 1983, the city was upgraded to a prefecture-level city.
