Xiamen厦门英文介绍

Xiamen is an island city with a rich and dramatic history,

replete with pirates, rebel leaders, and European merchants.

Now linked to mainland Fujian by a cauway, Xiamen retains a

strong international flavor. Known in the West as Amoy, Xiamen

has a long history as a port city, and later became a center

of British trade in the 19th century. Their foreign ttlements,

later taken over by Japane invaders at the start of World War

II, were established on the nearby small Gulangyu Island. Many

of the old treaty-port and colonial buildings in Western styles

survive. Xiamen was declared one of China’s first Special

Economic Zones in the early 1980’s, taking advantage of the

city’s heritage as a trading center and the proximity to Taiwan.

Today Xiamen is one of China’s most attractive and

best-maintained resort cities.

Xiamen was founded in 1394 at the beginning of the Ming

dynasty as a center of defen against coastal pirates. Its

prosperity was due to its deepwater sheltered harbor, that

supplanted nearby Quanzhou, the port that had been the center

of the maritime trade with the Indies.

In the mid-17th century, Xiamen and Gulangyu Island became

a stronghold of Zheng Chenggong, known in the West as Koxinga,

a Ming loyalist who held out against the Manchu invaders until

being driven to Taiwan. Born in Japan to a Chine pirate father

and a Japane mother, Zheng became allied with holdout Ming

princes in the south who hoped for a restoration. He built up

a resistance force of some 7,000 junks and a mixed force of

three-quarters of a million troops and pirates. In 1661 he drove

the Dutch from Taiwan and t up another ba there, before his

death in 1662.

After the Opium Wars Xiamen became one of the first treaty

ports to be opened to foreign trade and ttlement following

the Treaty of Nanjing in 1842. Gulangyu Island was transformed

into an international ttlement, where many Victorian and

Neoclassical style buildings still survive. The city’s

prosperity was due both to trade and to wealth nt back by

Xiamen’s substantial emigrant munity of overas Chine.

Prosperity returned to Xiamen in the early 1980’s when

Xiamen was designated one of

the four Special Economic Zones (SEZs).
