In the past, people gathered for market days under this tree, and the name “Zhuili” became phonetically adapted to “Zhuili (追栗).” Before 1730 (the 8th year of Emperor Yongzheng’s reign), the area was part of Kaihua Prefecture (开化府), later under Kaihua Li (开化里). On April 15, 1945, the first democratic government of Wenshan County was established in Yahu Zhai Village (丫呼寨村) under the Zhuilijie Village Committee. In 1950, the area was classified under the Central District as Zhuilijie Administrative Village. In March 2001, it was upgraded from a township to a town.
