History

The place was made Zhongxin District in October 1945. It was renamed to Siming in 1950. In April 1953, the district’s government was upgraded from District Bureau (区å�¬æ�€) to People’s Government . From August 1966 to October 1979, Siming was named Xiangyang .
Administration

Before the merge, Siming originally has five street offices :

* Binghai
* Siming
* Wen’an
* Xiagang
* Zhonghua

The above five are divided into 58 residential committees, and two villages: Zengcuoan and Huangcuo. In May 2003, Siming’s two neighbouring districts — Gulangyu Island and the larger Kaiyuan — were merged into Siming.

Xiagang Street was originally a district in 1950.
