In the southeast coastal area of Fujian Province, there is a place called shishi city, which borders Jinjiang City in the west and is surrounded by the sea on three sides. It is a peninsula, with Quanzhou Bay and shenhu bay in the south and north respectively, and Taiwan Province Strait in the east. Shishi is flat, with Quanzhou Plain in the north and low hills in the south (below 200 meters above sea level).

Shishi is named after the Shishi in front of Kuanren Fengli Temple. Because there are many people passing by the temple, people often agree to take Shishi as the meeting place, so it has gradually become famous. Shishi city is 20.9km wide from east to west, with a length of 16.8km from north to south, a land area of 158.42 km2, and a tidal flat area of 30.79 km2, with a total area of 189.2 1 km2.

Shishi was always under the jurisdiction of Jinjiang County before it was built, and Jinjiang County was Nan 'an County before it was built. In 7 18 AD, in the sixth year of Tang Kaiyuan, Jinjiang County was established in the southeast of Nan 'an, which was under Quanzhou. At that time, the state and county ruled together, which opened the history of Guofu County in Jinjiang County for nearly 1200 years. At that time, Shishi was under the jurisdiction of Jinjiang County.
