莲塘镇在广东省肇庆市高要区东南部，北面紧靠高要城区，东邻金渡镇，南接活道镇，西与新桥镇相连。[2]全镇辖1个社区、20个行政村，约78条自然村。[1][2]镇域面积约125平方千米；第七次全国人口普查（2020年）结果显示全镇人口约4.87万人，在高要区各街道乡镇中排第5位。[1]镇名取自村落地形如莲藕生于池塘之中。[1]

历史沿革[edit]

明代，这一带分属迁修乡的莲塘都、温贯都等；清末属新江片莲塘都。[1]1937年5月，境内分属第二区的3个乡；1947年10月，莲塘与十八坊合并，成立莲坊乡。[1]1953年属第五区，1957年并入莲塘区；1958年10月并入新成立的新桥公社，翌年7月再单独设莲塘公社。[1]1983年初公社改为区，1986年底撤区建莲塘镇。[1]

地理环境[edit]

据博雅地名网所载镇概况，镇距高要城区8千米、距肇庆市区10千米，广肇高速公路横贯全镇，连江公路通往市区并与省道肇江线、国道324线相接，沿新兴江、西江可乘船前往肇庆、广州和广西。[2]这份概况写成时，全镇人口共为5.6万人，辖20个村民委员会和1个居民委员会。[2]维基百科则记载全镇人口58,429人（未注明年份）。[3]

经济[edit]

该份镇概况称，莲塘以工业立镇，同时是高要的农业重镇，以蔬菜、水产、禽畜、花卉为主导产业；2006年引进企业9家，实际到位民间资金7600万元，当年外贸出口额为172.63万美元。[2]镇内建有肇庆换流站、砚都变电站，规划中的印染、化工、汽配、农副产品深加工是四大支柱产业，还规划了占地6000亩的莲塘生态休闲度假区。[2]镇内蚌岗工业园设在上察村，聚集了纺织、染整、电镀、皮革类等企业十多家。[2]

水产养殖以罗氏沼虾为特色。据《人民日报》2024年8月的报道，高要区被称为“中国罗氏沼虾之乡”，全区养殖面积12万亩，其中莲塘镇连片养殖面积约2万亩。[4]

名胜古迹[edit]

神符山在镇内，荔枝村的农耕文化园就在山脚下，山上有通向峰顶的灯带。[4]荔枝村内保存着孔氏宗祠、梁氏大夫祠、担坭茶亭等建筑，详见该村条目。[4]
