Lianjiang County (Matsu) is located in the northwest of the Taiwan Strait, belonging to Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, China, and consists of 36 islands with a total area of 29.6 square kilometers. The largest island, Nangan Island, is the administrative center, and the route to Mawei, Fujian Province takes only 90 minutes. Matsu is famous for its military relics, Eastern Fujian stone house architecture and the wonders of the blue tears, with an average of over 300,000 tourists per year.
Matsu retains a strong Eastern Min culture and uses the Fuzhou dialect, and traditional settlements such as the Celestial Wall Village are the only Eastern Min architectural complex in Taiwan. Important attractions include the Baba Kengtou, the Giant Statue of Mazu, and the Beihai Kengtou, where the phenomenon of blue tears (luminous algae glow) attracts a large number of photographers from April to June each year.
The city is connected to Taipei through the Nangan and Beigan airports, and by sea to Huangqi and Mawei in Fujian Province. The economy is dominated by tourism, accompanied by fisheries and the Matsu sorghum wine industry, and tourism revenue will account for more than 60% of GDP in 2023, making it a pillar industry of the region.
