Tengzhou, formerly known as Tengxian County, was known as the Land of The Three Kingdoms and five Cities and a land of flourishing culture in ancient times. The archaeological excavation of the site of Beixin Culture dating back to 7,300 years ago shows that it is one of the earliest cradles of Chinese civilization. In addition, during the reign of Zhenguan, Li Yuanying, the younger brother of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin, was sealed in Tengzhou, Shandong Province, and built an attic in Tengzhou named "King Tengzhou" (which has been destroyed). Later, King Li Yuanying was transferred to Hongzhou, Jiangnan (now Nanchang, Jiangxi), and built "King Tengzhou" because he missed his hometown Tengzhou. Tengzhou is the most beautiful eco-tourism demonstration city in China, with scenic spots such as Weishan Lake Wetland, Red Lotus Scenic Spot and Guteng Eight Scenic Spots.

By the end of 2021, Tengzhou has a permanent population of 1,573,500.
