History
Liangxiang county was established during the Qin dynasty of 221 BCE to 206 BCE. Its name came from the Chinese saying '人物俱良', literally: "people and goods all gather in Liang", indicating significant economic activities in the past. As the land is relatively fertile and flat, it was suitable for agriculture, contributing to its prosperity.
In 1958, Liangxiang county (良乡县) merged with Fangshan county and was renamed Liangxiang town (良乡镇). On January 24, 2002, another merger, this time with Guandao (官道镇), took place. The new Liangxiang township became the political, cultural and economic centre of Fangshan district and houses the district seat.
