东涌镇是广东省广州市南沙区东北部的建制镇,北隔沙湾水道与番禺区相望,东邻黄阁镇,西南接大岗镇,西以西樵水道同榄核镇分界。全镇辖22个行政村和东涌、鱼窝头2个社区。2006年1月原东涌镇、鱼窝头镇与灵山镇西樵村合并成现在的东涌镇,2012年12月划入南沙区。[1][2]

历史沿革[edit]

此地原是浅海。据博雅地名网所引资料,南北朝时沙湾以南的灵山、鱼窝头、东涌、潭洲一带尚无居民点记载;北宋末年起,随着中原人口南迁和堤围的修筑,这片沙滩逐渐成陆。[3]

清代这里属沙湾都,民国时期归番禺县一区,新中国成立初期设沙鼻乡。1953年镇境划成东涌、石排、石基3个乡,1957年撤区后合为东涌乡,1958年初并入鱼窝头乡,之后在灵山公社、鱼窝头公社之间几度归属。1961年7月东涌公社由鱼窝头公社析出;1984年建东涌区,1987年改设镇。[3]

此后有两次区划变动:2006年1月25日,鱼窝头镇与灵山镇西樵村并入东涌;2012年12月1日,全镇改由南沙区管辖,不再属番禺区。[3]

地名由来[edit]

“东涌”一名的来源,当地的说法是:清雍正年间人们在沙脊上围垦出吉祥围,吉祥围东侧有一条深水槽,按方位称为东涌,后来这里形成集市,称东涌街。[2]

人口与经济[edit]

第七次全国人口普查(以2020年11月1日为标准时点)统计的东涌镇常住人口为17.08万人,约占南沙区的五分之一。[1]博雅地名网另载,2024年全镇户籍人口约9.1万,外来人口约12.5万。[4]

镇内工业与农业并重。2014年工业总产值约301.5亿元。[1]“东涌果蔗”取得全国名特优新农产品称号,2020年8月镇又列入广东省「第二批“一村一品、一镇一业”专业镇」(果蔬类)。[4][5]近年镇内开发了水乡风情游、研学游、露营观光游等线路,2024年前三季度接待游客约27.9万人次。[4]

名胜古迹[edit]

蝴蝶楼在鱼窝头村一家糖业公司的院内,修建于20世纪30年代,属近现代重要史迹,2008年12月列入「第七批广州市文物保护单位」。[2]南涌村的大炮楼建于1938年,同样是广州市文物保护单位。[6]

荣誉[edit]

东涌镇东涌镇列入「第三届全国文明村镇」是在2011年12月;2014年7月,国家住房城乡建设部等七个部委将其确定为「全国重点镇」;2015年1月,镇上获选「第二批美丽宜居小镇示范」;2020年7月,全国爱卫会再次确认其为国家卫生乡镇;2023年11月,镇入围「广东“百千万工程”首批典型县镇村」,2024年4月又进了广东省乡村振兴示范镇的创建名单。[5]
