Share - WeChat
At the mouth of the Min River in Fujian province lies Meihua Ancient Town—a quiet place with a powerful legacy of inclusiveness and harmony. From Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)-era missions to the Ryukyu Kingdom to the dispatch of Fujian's "36 surnames," and from the tales of embroidery master Cai Hongheng to the town's resistance against foreign invaders, Meihua embodies centuries of cultural exchange, resilience, and communal solidarity. Following in the footsteps of a China Daily journalist, let's trace how this coastal town continues to connect with the world—through history, memory, and an enduring commitment to peace and friendship.
