Jinzhou is an ancient city with over a thousand years of history. Originally known as '''Tuhe''' ({{lang|zh-hans|{{linktext|徒河}}}}), it was part of [[Yan (state)|Yan]] in the [[Warring States period]]. Under the [[Qin dynasty]], the majority of what is now Jinzhou became part of [[Liaodong Commandery]]. It was part of [[Changli Commandery]] in the province of [[Youzhou]] during the [[Han dynasty]] and [[Three Kingdoms period]]s, but fell under the jurisdiction of Yingzhou in the [[Northern Wei|Beiwei]], [[Dongwei]], and [[Northern Qi|Beiqi]] periods, before becoming part of [[Liucheng Commandery]] and then [[Yan Prefecture]] during the [[Sui Dynasty]] and [[Tang dynasty]]. During the Tang, it was the seat of the [[Andong Protectorate]].
