Nangan, located at the northern mouth of the Taiwan Strait and part of Lianjiang County in Fujian Province, is the political, economic and cultural center of the Matsu Islands. It is famous for its unique granite landforms and the traditional architecture of "stone houses" in eastern Fujian, where stone houses with red tiles and white walls are built against the mountains, contrasting with the blue sea and sky, forming a distinctive Matsu flavor. With a pleasant climate and mild seasons, the area combines subtropical maritime characteristics with the cultural imprint of a war zone, and is home to historical attractions such as Matsu's Tianhou Palace and Preah Vihear settlement, as well as natural landscapes such as Jinsha Beach.
