http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_proxy_module.html#proxy_pass

  If proxy_pass is specified with URI, when passing a request to the
  server, part of a normalized request URI matching the location is
  replaced by a URI specified in the directive:

    location /name/ {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1/remote/;
    }
