化龙镇在广州市番禺区东北部,北面隔珠江与黄埔区相望,东邻石楼镇,南接石碁镇,西与新造镇、南村镇相连,面积53.73平方千米,下辖2个社区、13个行政村,镇政府设在龙源路88号。[1]2020年第七次人口普查时常住人口68958人。[1]镇名相传来自南宋末一位僧人「化龙归天」的传说。[2][3]镇内以汽车制造为主要工业,另有沙路炮台、屈氏大宗祠等文物,以及潭山村的飘色、乞巧等民间艺术。[4][5]

历史沿革[edit]

清代,镇域一部分属茭塘都化龙堡,一部分属明经堡。民国年间归深水社乡、岗尾社乡管辖,1949年后初属禺南东区。[2]1956年撤区并乡后称化龙乡,两年后并入人民公社体制;1984年公社改区,又称化龙区;到1987年3月,区改成了镇。[1][2]快懂百科把改镇的时间写作1987年2月,与百度百科和博雅地名网不同,本条取3月。[3]

关于镇名,流传的说法是:南宋末年,黄粤南从新会迁来此地定居,他的儿子黄龙在村南建龙山寺并任住持,去世后乡人传说他「化龙归天」,地方因此得名化龙。[2][3]

地理环境[edit]

镇域北濒珠江,江岸线长约13公里,对岸是黄埔新港一带。[2]气候属亚热带季风气候。[1]镇内有京珠高速、广明高速和新化快速路等通道,化龙南站设在镇内。[1][3]

人口民族[edit]

据第七次人口普查,2020年末全镇常住人口68958人。[1]快懂百科引用的数字是2023年常住人口约3.7万人、外来人口近6万人,口径与普查不同,二者不宜直接比较。[3]

经济[edit]

据百度百科引用的数据,2019年末全镇共有工业企业265家,规模以上的占54家;另有102家商店或超市,营业面积都在50平方米以上。[1]新快报2024年2月的报道称,2023年全镇规上工业总产值突破千亿元,增速逾三成,汽车产业贡献九百多亿元,镇内聚集了整车厂以及电池、电控等零部件企业。[4]快懂百科记录,2022年全镇地区生产总值预计为208亿元;除汽车外,工业门类还有电动工具、包装材料、家居、医疗器械、日化、电子等。[3]

在博雅地名网收录的榜单中,化龙镇2023年排全国综合实力千强镇第466位,2025年排全国千强镇第480位,并于2022年被列为淘宝镇。[2]

文化[edit]

镇内潭山村的飘色、乞巧都列入番禺区非物质文化遗产名录,其中飘色还进了广州市名录;村里每年农历三月廿三举行飘色巡游。[4][7]当地还有龙舟、舞龙舞狮等活动。[4]

名胜古迹[edit]

沙亭村的沙路炮台由两广总督张之洞主持,修建于清光绪十年(1884年),与长洲、鱼珠等炮台一起构成广州江防的一环;1938年被日军炸毁。[6]它在2008年成为广州市文物保护单位,2019年定为广东省文物保护单位;经过修缮,现作遗址公园开放。[5][6]

莘汀村的屈氏大宗祠是明末清初诗人屈大均的祖祠,砖木石混合结构,如今兼作村史展示与文化活动场所。[2][5]莘汀村的烟管岗烽火台遗址,塘头村始建于明代的后山黄公祠(2008年公布为广州市文物保护单位),以及潭山村的古建筑群也在镇内。[2][7]明经村建有陈树人、陈复故乡园,纪念陈树人、陈复父子。[5]

著名人物[edit]

屈大均(1630—1696),明末清初诗人,被称为「岭南三大家」之一,出生在化龙;其祖祠屈氏大宗祠在莘汀村。[2][4]陈树人是岭南画派创始人之一,迁居广州市区前长期住在明经村。[2][5]
