Pínghé

Pínghé lies among the wooded mountains of southern Fújiàn, where the old boundaries of Nánjìng, Zhāngpǔ, and Lóngxī met. In 1518 the Míng official and philosopher Wáng Yángmíng petitioned to establish a county here after military campaigns in the region. Its name expressed the hope that conflict would be pacified and the people live in harmony.
