Sānlián Yǔ Introduction
Juguang Township, formerly known as Baiken, gets its name from the Fuzhou dialect where "ken" sounds like "dog," hence it is also called Baigou (White Dog). The two islands are shaped like two small dogs lying on the sea, which is why the eastern island is called Donggou Island (East Dog Island) and the western island is called Xigou Island (West Dog Island). In 1971, it was renamed Juguang Township, taking its meaning from "Do not forget Juguang," and the eastern and western areas were renamed Dongju and Xiju. The Juguang Visitor Center is located next to the Fuzheng settlement on Dongju Island.
