A chapter in Regional China, 2013, pp 276-286 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Shanxi is a province of the PRC. The name literally means “mountain’s west”, which refers to its location west of the Taihang Mountains. Situated in the middle of the Yellow River Valley, it borders Hebei Province to the east, Henan Province to the south, Shaanxi Province to the west and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region to the north. Its abbreviation is “Jin” in Chinese, after the state of Jin that existed here during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (771-221 BC).
