The origin of the bridge name

As early as before the Tang and Song Dynasties, there were Yue people living in Quanzhou. In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, due to social unrest, wars broke out from time to time, which led to a large number of Central Plains people moving south. Most of them moved to Quanzhou and Minnan, mainly from Henan, Hehe and Luoshui. The language family used in Quanzhou and even the whole southern Fujian is called Heluo, which is Minnan dialect.

These Zhongyuan people, with the advanced agricultural technology and experience of the Central Plains, led the local people to reclaim and develop and came to Quanzhou. Seeing that the mountains and rivers here are very similar to the ancient capital Luoyang, I named it Luoyang, hence the name of this bridge.
