'''Wuxi''' ({{zh|s={{linktext|无锡}} |t=無錫 |p=Wúxī}}) is an old city in southern [[Jiangsu]] province, [[People's Republic of China]].
 
Split in half by [[Lake Tai]], Wuxi borders [[Changzhou]] to the west and [[Suzhou]] to the east. The [[Yangtze River]] lies between the northern half of Wuxi and [[Taizhou, Jiangsu|Taizhou]], while the southern half of the city borders the province of [[Zhejiang]]. Wuxi is also famous for being one of the birthplaces of China's modern industry and commerce, as well as the hometown of many important businessmen, who played essential roles in building modern [[Shanghai]] commerce since the early 20th century.
เมืองอู๋ซีก่อตั้งขึ้นเมื่อ 3,000 ปีก่อนโดยเจ้าชายสองพระองค์ผู้ลี้ภัยมาจากตอนเหนือของจีน ทั้งสองพระองค์เรียกดินแดนบริเวณนี้ว่า 'เหมย' (Mei) เนื่องจากมีการขุดทำเหมืองดีบุกในบริเวณใกล้เคียง เมืองนี้จึงเป็นที่รู้จักในชื่อว่า 'หยูซี' (Youxi - เมืองที่มีดีบุก) จนกระทั่งแร่ดีบุกจึงขุดจนหมดเมื่อประมาณปี พ.ศ. 568 เมืองนี้จึงถูกเรียกในชื่อปัจจุบัน
 
==Name==
== สภาพทางภูมิศาสตร์ ==
The modern name consists of the [[Chinese characters]] {{lang|zh|{{linktext|无}}}} ("without, lacking") and {{lang|zh-hans|{{linktext|锡}}}} ("[[tin]]") and simply means "No tin". However, some scholars believe the name may have originally been "{{lang|zh-hant|{{linktext|吳|墟}}}}" ("Ruins of [[state of Wu|Wu]]") from Meicun's role as the original capital of the region or from a Chinese transcription of an indigenous [[Baiyue]] name honoring a bird deity.<ref>"[http://www.xzetc.gov.cn/wuxi/wuxi-1.htm Origin of the name 'Wuxi']" ("“无锡”地名的由来"). {{zh-icon}}</ref><ref>"[http://bbs.gucas.ac.cn/pc/pcarch.php?userid=smiles&y=2006&m=5 而今现在]". {{zh-icon}}</ref><ref>"[http://www.wst.net.cn/wuxifq/history.html 无锡市]". {{zh-icon}}</ref><ref>"[http://www.yn.xinhuanet.com/live/2008-12/25/content_15281990.htm Wuxi]" ("无锡"). {{zh-icon}}</ref><ref>"[http://www.wxrb.com/501/wwh/wwh_1/200910/t20091015_533410.html 考“无锡”地名的由来]". {{zh-icon}}</ref><ref>"[http://www.wxxf.net.cn/whty/wxwh/6647.shtml 无锡地名典故]". {{zh-icon}}</ref>
เมืองอู๋ซีมีอาณาเขตติดต่อกับเมือง[[ฉางโจว]]ทางด้านตะวันตก และติดกับ[[ซูโจว]]ทางด้านตะวันออก ทิศเหนือติดกับ[[แม่น้ำแยงซี]] ฝั่งตรงข้ามของแม่น้ำคือเมือง[[ไท่โจว]] ส่วนทิศใต้ติดกับมณฑล[[เจ้อเจียง]] การวางผังเมืองอู๋ซีเป็นไปตามลักษณะของเมืองยุคเก่าของจีนอีกหลายเมือง คือผังเมืองเป็นรูปวงกลม ภายในเมืองมีคลองสายเก่าหลายสายตัดไขว้กันทั่วไป ปัจจุบันคลองสายหลักยังเป็นเส้นทางสัญจรของเรือขนาดใหญ่
 
Former spellings include '''Wu-shi''', '''Wushi''', and '''Wu-hsi'''. In [[Shanghainese]], it is pronounced {{IPA-wuu|ɦuɕiɪʔ|}}.
สภาพอากาศในเมืองอู๋ซีจะร้อนจัดในฤดูร้อน และหนาวเย็นในฤดูหนาว อุณหภูมิเฉลี่ยทั้งปีประมาณ 18&nbsp;°C มีหิมะตกไม่บ่อยนัก และเนื่องจากตั้งอยู่ใกล้กับ[[ทะเลจีนตะวันออก]] จึงมีช่วงฤดูมรสุมที่จะมีระดับน้ำฝนอยู่ที่ 100 เซนติเมตรทุกปี

==History==
[[หมวดหมู่:เมืองในประเทศจีน]]
 
[[หมวดหมู่:มณฑลเจียงซู]]
===Zhou Dynasty===
According to [[Records of the Grand Historian|traditional Chinese historians]], two [[state of Zhou|Zhou]] princes, [[Wu Taibo|Taibo]] and [[Zhongyong of Wu|Zhongyong]], founded the first Chinese state in the area of Wuxi around the 11th century BC. This [[state of Wu]] ({{lang|zh|吳}}) had its first capital at [[Meili]], generally thought to be the village of Meicun in Wuxi (although some records indicate a location closer to Wu's later capitals around [[Suzhou]]). {{citation needed|date=November 2012}} Taibo and Zhongyong helped develop Wu's agriculture and waterways and the area soon flourished. Taibo died without an heir, and Zhongyong succeeded him as [[king of Wu (disambiguation)|king of Wu]]. His descendants were later officially enfeoffed by the [[Zhou dynasty|Zhou court]] as vassals before declaring themselves full kings again during the [[Spring and Autumn Period]].
 
A shrine to Taibo was set up in today's Meicun. Although the original wood structure was eventually destroyed in war, it has been rebuilt several times. {{citation needed|date=November 2012}} A stone carved with sayings by [[Confucius]] can still be seen at the modern [[Taibo Shrine]], whose architecture dates mostly to the [[Qing dynasty]].
 
===Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period===
The State of Wu became one of the strongest kingdoms during the [[Spring and Autumn Period]]. Sunzi ([[Suntzu]]), who wrote the famous "[[the Art of War]]" came to Wu and helped the king with his military affairs. Wu was considered one of the seven strongest kingdoms during this period{{Citation needed|date=March 2011}}. Some of Sunzi's descendants still live in Sunxiang in Wuxi near [[the Plum Garden]]. However, Wu was later defeated by the [[State of Yue]], today's [[Zhejiang]] and [[Fujian]], which in turn was overthrown by the [[Chu (state)|State of Chu]] and incorporated into Chu during the [[Warring States period]].
 
===Qin and Han Dynasty===
{{unreferenced section|date=August 2012}}
The cultural and economic center of the "Wu" area shifted to Suzhou after the reign of the first [[Qin Dynasty]] emperor, [[Qin Shi Huang]], who united China; Wuxi at that time belonged to Suzhou. During the [[Han dynasty]], Wuxi was set up as a county by emperor [[Han Wudi]]. Historic records show that [[tin]] was discovered during the early Han era, leading to conflicts in the area. Soon, however, the tin was depleted. This is generally believed to be the origin of the name Wuxi, meaning "no tin." Recent scholarship has brought this explanation into doubt, however. It is claimed that "Wu" is one of the auxiliary suffixes common in the local dialect. This is similar to referring to Suzhou as "Gusu" and Wu as "Gowu". The name was changed to Youxi (有錫), meaning "having tin", during the [[Wang Mang]] conflicts period because Wang wanted to change the name.
 
===Six dynasties, Tang and Song Dynasties===
[[Agriculture]] and silk industry flourished in Wuxi especially after the construction of [[Grand Canal (China)|the Grand Canal]]. Although Suzhou became a bigger center of the Wu area, Wuxi is still important in the county of Wu.
 
===Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties and on===
{{unreferenced section|date=December 2011}}
Agriculture, with rice and fish as major products, and industry continued to develop then in the early 20th century, Wuxi became a center of the textile industry in China and one of the four most important rice markets nationwide. During the period between 1900 and 1940, Wuxi was considered one of the most important counties in China. In dramatist [[Cao Yu]]'s well-known drama "[[Thunderstorm (play)|''Thunderstorm'']]", Wuxi was mentioned several times with a comment "Wuxi is a good place". After the [[People's Republic of China]] was set up by [[Communist Party of China|communists]] in 1949, Wuxi continued to grow in importance, with the establishment of more textile production and both light and heavy industry. This city was considered the second most important city in Jiangsu Province after the capital [[Nanjing]]. However, its developmental model has been criticized for the environmental deterioration caused. New strategies are now under consideration to ensure its sustainable development.

==Geography==
 
[[File:Wuxi environs map.png|image|right|400px|thumb|Map showing the city Wuxi (Arrowed ) and its relation to the City of [[Shanghai]], The [[Yangtse]] River and [[Lake Taihu]].]]
The city plan, as is typical of many older Chinese cities, is of a central city with a roughly circular plan, crisscrossed with older canals, the main canal still seeing heavy barge traffic.
 
Wuxi itself is on an alluvial plain of deep sedimentary deposits cut between [[limestone]] foothills, making it one of the sources for "[[Chinese scholar's rocks|scholar's rocks]]", the intricately weathered stones which were used as devices for [[contemplation]].
 
===Climate===
Wuxi is hot and humid in summer and chilly and damp in winter, with an average annual temperature of {{convert|18|°C|0|abbr=on}} and very occasional snow. Because of its proximity to the [[East China Sea]], it has a [[monsoon]] season and receives {{convert|100|cm|0|abbr=off}} of rain annually. {{citation needed|date=December 2011}}

==Economy==
 
Currently Wuxi is designated as an [[investment]] grade city, and has two large industrial parks devoted to new industries. {{citation needed|date=December 2011}},While being the current [[manufacturing]] centers on [[textile]]s, there are projects to move to [[electric motor]] manufacturing and MRP [[software development]]. Wuxi is the solar technology hub in China as two major photovoltaic companies are based in the city. They are [[Suntech Power]] and [[Jetion Holdings Ltd]] which are listed on overseas stock exchanges.
 
In 2008 new energy industries were worth 37.8 Billion RMB, with the solar photovoltaic industry accounting for 30.2 Billion RMB of the total.<ref>China Business News http://thechinaperspective.com/articles/wuxicitywantsroleingreenenergy6391/index.html</ref> The [[Gross Domestic Product|GDP]] per capita was ¥107,400 (US$17,050) in 2011, ranked first in [[Jiangsu]], ahead of [[Nanjing]] and [[Suzhou]].<ref name="english.jschina.com.cn"/>

As an important city for the "Wu" area, its culture bears distinctive characteristics, which can be identified in its dialect, architecture, waterway transportation and various art types. {{citation needed|date=April 2012}}
