Zhanjia Town: Zhanjia Town is situated in the western suburbs of Longyou County, on the upper reaches of the Qiantang River, and in the central section of the Jinqu Basin. It borders Longzhou Subdistrict to the southeast, faces the Qu River to the north, and looks across the river at Xiaonanhai Town. To the west, it borders Anren and Quanwang in Qujiang District. The Zhejiang–Jiangxi Railway and Provincial Highway 46 run east–west through the town. The Jiuli Interchange on Provincial Highway 46, located 0.5 kilometers east of the town government, connects National Highway 320, Provincial Highways 46 and 50, providing extremely convenient transportation. In May 1992, based on the former Zhanjia Township, it merged with Xiajin and Maye townships to form the current town, which now has three work stations—Zhanjia, Xiajin, and Maye—and administers 22 administrative villages...
