==History== ===Early history=== In 1720, Jiamusi was first named Giyamusi (, ) during the Kangxi period by the Nanai people. The word Giyamusi originally means "inn" in the Manchu language. Because of the harsh climate and short growing season, the region of modern-day Jiamusi was largely uncultivated.
