Looking for Chang Cheng Village
Hi we are looking for information and the location in Hainan of Chang Cheng Village, Yan Fong County, Qiong Shan Province.
Any information would be received gratefully. Thank you in advance.
It appears the place you are looking for—“Chang Cheng Village (昌城 村) in “Yan Fong County, “Qiong Shan Province, Hainan—is not clearly identifiable in readily available online sources. I could not find credible, detailed references to a village by exactly that name and location.
Here’s what can be inferred from available information and what steps you might take:
- The name “Qiong Shan” (瓊山) refers historically to a district within present-day Haikou, Hainan.
- The name “Chang Cheng” (昌城) does appear as a populated place in Hainan Province, specifically in Changjiang Li Autonomous County (昌江县) at coordinates roughly 19°18′38″ N, 108°41′23″ E.
- There is no immediate link (from my available sources) between this Changcheng in Changjiang and a “Yan Fong County” in “Qiong Shan Province.” It is possible the name may have been romanised differently, or the administrative divisions have changed, or that the village is very small and not documented widely in English sources.
My recommendation for locating the village more reliably:
- Check the Chinese name of the village and county: If “Yan Fong” is a phonetic rendering, the actual county might be “Yanfeng County” (延丰县) or something similar; use Chinese characters in a map search.
- Use a map of Hainan in Chinese (e.g., Baidu Maps) and search for 昌城村 or 昌城乡 within Haikou or nearby counties; perhaps it is a hamlet under a larger township.
- Contact the local tourism bureau in Hainan or the county government office of Changjiang Li County or Haikou’s Qiongshan district—they may have local village directories in Chinese.
In summary: While there is a Changcheng village in Hainan, the exact “Chang Cheng Village, Yan Fong County, Qiong Shan Province” as you specify could not be confirmed in available references. Using the Chinese characters and checking official local sources will likely yield more precise results.
