Yangzhong () is a county-level city under the administration of Zhenjiang, Jiangsu province, China. It is the easternmost county-level division of Zhenjiang City.
== History == There were only several smaller shoals in the area of present-day Yangzhong during the Eastern Jin. As time went on, they enlarged and merged into an elongated shoal by Tang dynasty, which was called Xiaozhou (; literally: "Small shoal") in Song dynasty. It was renamed Xinzhou () and then Ximinzhou () during Ming dynasty, and was designated Taipingzhou () in Qing dynasty.
