Huangqi Bandao, Peninsula in Lianjiang County, Fujian, China
Huangqi Bandao is a peninsula in Fujian province that extends into the East China Sea, creating a distinctive landform with several villages and communities scattered across its area. The peninsula serves as a natural geographic feature connecting the mainland to the surrounding coastal waters and maritime zones.
The peninsula was organized as Huangqi Commune in 1958 and later restructured into a township system in 1984. These administrative changes marked important shifts in how the local area was governed during the second half of the 20th century.
The peninsula contains four residential communities and seven villages, including Changsha and Dajian, representing distinct local social organizations.
A maritime route connects the peninsula to the Matsu Islands, operating since 2015 as part of a regional transportation network. The area is accessible by boat, and visitors should be aware of its location near a geopolitically sensitive boundary.
The peninsula marks one of the closest points between territories on opposite sides of the Taiwan Strait with different political administrations. This geographic proximity gives the location particular significance for understanding the region's geography and modern politics.
