is a county of Zhangzhou City, in the far south of Fujian province, People's Republic of China

The county comprises most of the lower watershed of the Jiulong River's north branch (Chinese: 九龙江北溪) and has long been a transport corridor. The first rail connection to the port of Xiamen, laid during the Great Leap Forward era, came down this valley.

The county seat is Huafeng (Chinese: 华丰镇). East of there, up a tributary valley, is Xiandu town (Chinese: 仙都镇), which features some prime examples of Tulou and Fujian Tulou.
