Dongyi Town was called Dongyi because its construction was based on the unique ancient civilization ruins in Rizhao City and its surrounding areas-Dongyi culture. Dongyi culture was a tribal culture in ancient China, located in the Shandong Peninsula. Therefore, with Dongyi culture as the background, Dongyi Town perfectly integrated the traditional architecture of the north and the folk courtyard of the fisherman's family with tourism and vacation, becoming a seaside tourist town that integrated folk experience and leisure sightseeing.
Dongyi's distribution range was roughly in today's Shandong, Jiangsu, and Anhui, including the Liaodong Peninsula, Shandong Peninsula, and the Huaihe River basin. Dongyi was not a single tribe or ethnic group. It was a general term, similar to how southerners and northerners were now referred to. The ancestor of the Dongyi tribe was Taihao, a descendant of the Fuxi. Their living habits were different from the Hua Xia tribe. Dongyi created Beixin, Dawenkou, Longshan and Yueshi cultures in Shandong and its surrounding areas. The Dawenkou culture had a wide range of distribution, from Liaodong Peninsula in the north to northern Jiangsu and northern Shanxi in the south, and to Xinyang, Pingdingshan, and Luoyang in Henan in the west. In general, Dongyi's distribution area was mainly concentrated in the eastern coastal areas of China.
