Jianning (simplified Chinese: 建宁县; traditional Chinese: 建寧縣; pinyin: Jiànníng Xiàn; lit. 'build peace') lies in the municipal region of Sanming, Fujian province, China.

Transportation

Jianning is rather remote; its county-town Suicheng (濉城) is serviced only by three provincially maintained roads, namely:

  • east to Taining county-town
  • south to Ninghua county-town
  • west to the watershed/provincial border, whence north to Nanfeng county town, Jiangxi

On September 26, 2013, the Xiangtang–Putian Railway entered service, connecting Jianning to China's railway network.
