It is said that Lingchuan Mountain Range runs through the east and west, and it is a branch of Gong Hu Mountain Range. There are 20 peaks, with the highest elevation of 639.5 meters and the lowest tens of meters. The whole town is surrounded by mountains and seas with twists and turns, with a total length of 17 km. Seen from a distance, it crouches like a dragon on Meizhou Bay. The mountain range is located on the north side, inclining to the south and facing the East China Sea.
The strangeness of the creator and the beauty of the mountains and rivers also provide a basis for the naming of ancestors. There are dragons and rivers of water. Folklore: "Lingchuan" is a clever ancestor who gave his beautiful home such a beautiful name inspired by the book "Humble Room Inscription". Of course, we must also look at the good wishes of excellent people and rich things. Sure enough, in the second year of Jingtai in Ming Dynasty (145 1), Ke, a Yi nationality, monopolized the glans penis in palace examination and won the first prize.
There are many reasons for the village name of Lingchuan Town.
Legend has it that before the Cultural Revolution, a teacher from a city reported to Lingchuan School District, and the school district wanted to send him to teach at Haitou Primary School. He thought Lingchuan was coastal enough to go to the end of the sea, where the wind must be strong in fierce wave, so he didn't go. The order was rewritten as Qingshan primary school. He thought that Qingshan would bind mountains and rivers and not go. The staff had to open the student registration book of the whole school district for him to choose. He chose Pingyang, thinking that this school must be on the road to peace. But afterwards, I learned that there is no sea at the head of the sea, and there are no mountains in the green hills. Both villages are on both sides of the road, but Pingyang is uneven, in a ravine more than 500 meters above sea level.
Lingchuan Town, like Pingyang Village, named Cai Cuo and Jin Dong villages in order to express people's good wishes. The other is named after geographical location, such as the top spot-the eastern end of Lingchuan; Lower tail-the southernmost place near the sea; Li Jing-in a quiet mountain area; Shanmen-The two ridges at the entrance of the village are like a round gate. The other is named after the surname, how to live-what is the residence; —— The village has a population of more than 4,000 people, mostly surnamed Ke and Zhu; Cai CuO and CuO-Cai's former residence. Another category is named after historical materials or historical allusions. For example, the stove is said to be a Neolithic site. In the Southern Song Dynasty, commercial porcelain was exported to Japan and Southeast Asian countries. Up to now, there are still ancient ceramic kiln sites on the ocean surface. Another example is Haitou Village, which was a beach in history and later changed with the land. At that time, the sea became the land now, but it still used the name left over from history. Villages named after this include Dongsha, Taihu Lake, Trang Van, Dongyang, Li Jiao and Tai Po.
This is the village name of Lingchuan Town. According to their own characteristics, each village has its own place and interests.
Donghai Town 1999 broke away from Lingchuan and originally belonged to the management committee of the north shore of Meizhou Bay. In August 2002, it was under the jurisdiction of Chengxiang District.
