Cuan-Long-Yan Stele, Stone monument in Luliang County, China.

The Cuan-Long-Yan Stele stands 3.38 meters tall at Zhen Yuanbao Primary School, featuring 904 characters inscribed in regular script on its surface.

Created in 458 during the Liu-Song Dynasty, the stele functions as a memorial for a local official named Cuan Longyan in Yunnan province.

The monument contains inscriptions that provide detailed information about the Cuanhuan family and regional governance during the Southern Dynasty period.

The monument site opens daily from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM, with an entrance fee of 50 yuan and access through bus number 31 from Qujing City.

Scholar Ruan Yuan rediscovered this ancient stone monument in 1826 while serving as governor of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces.
