Fengjiayu Town (simplified Chinese: 冯家峪镇; traditional Chinese: 馮家峪鎮; pinyin: Féngjiāyù Zhèn) is a town located in the Miyun District of Beijing, China.[1] It sits along the banks of Baimaguan River within the Yan Mountain Range. The town shares border with Dengchang Manchu Ethnic Township in its north, Bulaotun Town in its southeast, Shicheng Town in its southwest, and Changshaoying Manchu Ethnic Township in its northwest. As of 2020, it had a population of 4,485.[2]
According to local legend, Song female general Mu Guiying had once stayed here for armor repair, and the region was thus named Fengjiayu (Chinese: 缝甲峪; lit. 'Sew Armor Valley'). Later the name would evolve into Fengjiayu (Chinese: 冯家峪) of today.[3]
