Township overview of Penghu Town
Penghu Town is located in the middle of Yongchun County, Fujian Province, and is known as the "sub-center" of Yongchun. It is a famous historical, cultural and commercial town. Penghu is surrounded by mountains and looks like a lake in the middle, so it was originally called "Pihu, Feihu". Penghu is named Penghu because of its beautiful mountains and clear waters, picturesque scenery, honest folk customs, and resemblance to Penglai Wonderland.
As the first batch of municipal pilot small towns in Quanzhou City, Penghu Town invested more than 600 million yuan that year to build Juxing Commercial and Residential Building, Juxing Hotel, Victoria Harbor Hotel, Civilized Landscape Avenue, and Small Watershed. 59 projects including the improvement of roads and the widening and upgrading of Pengba Highway have given the town a completely new look. , the town has a total area of 81.3 square kilometers, a population of 68,500, and jurisdiction over 22 administrative villages and 1 farm. The residents of the town speak Southern Fujian dialect. Two provincial highways, the Quande Line and the Fusan Line, and the Quansan Expressway under construction intersect throughout the territory, and are known as the "Golden Triangle with Three Links and Thousands of Miles". In ancient times, merchants from western Yongchun, Dehua, Quanzhou, Datian, Sanming, Yong'an and other places gathered here. Today, every "Market Day" can still let you experience the charm of the former trading center.
