Yongchun County, Administrative county in Quanzhou, China.
Yongchun County is an administrative county in western Quanzhou with varied landscapes and terrain at different elevations. The area connects through an extensive road network that links numerous towns and townships, with Taocheng as its main administrative hub.
The area was historically part of Fujian Province until 1949, when it came under new administration and was reorganized as Jinjian District. Its current status as an independent county was officially established in 1985.
The region preserves traditional martial arts through Yongchun White Crane Kung Fu, a distinct fighting style that emerged during the 17th century. This practice remains embedded in local schools and training centers, shaping how people here connect with their cultural roots.
Visitors can best explore the area by car, as roads connect the various towns and communities throughout the region. It helps to use Taocheng as an orientation point since the main administrative facilities are located there.
The Dongguan Bridge from the 12th century stands out for its integration of religious shrines directly into its architectural structure. This design approach reflects historical building methods where spiritual and practical functions were woven together into a single structure.
