Qishan County is a county in the west of Guanzhong, Shaanxi province, China, under the administration of the prefecture-level city of Baoji. It was the site of Zhouyuan, the first capital of the Zhou dynasty (1066–256 BCE). Historically, the site was also known as Qiyi (Chinese: 岐邑) or Qishan (Chinese: 岐山). It is located in Fengchu township on the Weishui River to the south of Mt. Qi.[1] [2] Many Zhou-era artifacts including bronzeware have been found here. These are now housed in a museum on the site.
As 2020, Qishan County is divided to 9 towns.[3]
