Jilin is the 41th largest city of China, and the 352th largest city of the World. Jilin is one of the three provinces of Northeast China. It borders North Korea and Russia to the east, Heilongjiang to the north, Liaoning to the south and Inner Mongolia to the west. The name "jilin" literally, "Auspicious Forest" probably originates from girin ula, a Manchu phrase meaning "along the river"; this would have been transcribed into jilin wula in Chinese, then shortened to "jilin". In ancient times, Jilin was inhabited by various peoples, notably the Xianbei, Koreans and the Mohe. Korean kingdoms, including the Buyeo, Goguryeo and Balhae, were established in this area. |
