Tips

culture
永安 (literally 'eternal peace') is one of the most recycled auspicious place names in China — towns, streets, temples, and even a Three Kingdoms-era Shu Han reign title (永安 222-223) use it. The best-known modern Yong'an is the city in Fujian, a traditional forestry and paper-making hub.
