The Origin of the Name of Mitou Village in Shijing Town

The origin of Shijing in Xin 'an County: the hometown of national hero Zheng Chenggong. Like a bright pearl, it is embedded in the coast of Fujian Sea and lies in the center of the Golden Triangle in southern Fujian. It is the external hub of Quanzhou Ancient Erythrina Port. As early as the Sui Dynasty, people made a living by fishing and farming. In Song Dynasty, "Shijing Gold" governed Shuitou, Anhai and Dongshi, which not only adapted to overseas traffic and trade, but also benefited the transportation and marketing of mountain products in the mainland.

The "Jinghai Village" in the Ming Dynasty became a coastal defense stronghold against Japanese pirates and an important base for Zheng Chenggong's anti-Qing drive against Taiwan. In the "Shijing Wharf" in the Republic of China, Chen Guohui set up checkpoints here and sent troops to manage ships entering and leaving the port. Shijing, because there is a natural Shijing at the foot of Baihe Mountain, the spring water is clear and sweet, and there are strange stones beside the well that look like cranes, making it look like drinking water and become a scenic spot, and Shijing becomes a place name.
