龙潭镇在广东省惠州市龙门县西北部，距县城17公里，辖2个社区、14个行政村，镇域面积约257平方公里，是龙门县面积最大的乡镇。[1]镇上以山地和丘陵为主，地势西高东低，农业、林业是主要产业，西溪笋是当地的土特产。[2]2005年，原铁岗镇与左潭镇合并，设立现在的龙潭镇；第七次全国人口普查时，全镇人口约2万。[1]

历史沿革[edit]

镇名的来历，说法是当地河流在此急转，形成一处深潭，潭边有一座小山，人称山仔潭。明崇祯年间，潭的西南一带形成集市，雅称龙潭圩，镇政府驻地设在圩上，镇也因此得名。[1]

在明清两代，这里是长沙乡西林都的一部分。进入民国后，1912年称左潭区，1931年起称第二区，1938年成为二区的一部分，1941年改隶第一区。1949年归第三区管辖，1957年12月成立左潭乡，次年10月又建左潭人民公社。1983年11月，公社改称区；撤区设镇是在1986年12月2日。再到2005年，龙门县撤销铁岗镇和左潭镇，两地合并设立龙潭镇。[1]

地理环境[edit]

龙潭镇的地理坐标约为东经114度06分、北纬23度42分。镇内山地、丘陵为主，属山区镇；据概况页所载，年平均气温20.5℃，水资源丰富，小水电分布在全镇各处，地下有褐钇钶矿、铅锌矿、钨、锡、石灰石等矿产。[2]

经济[edit]

据概况页，镇内山地面积28000公顷，森林覆盖率80%，林木以松、杉和常绿阔叶树为主，盛产丹竹、毛竹。镇里有粮食、水果、竹笋三大农业基地；全镇2004年的农业产值为7823万元，笋竹种植860公顷，鲜笋年产60000吨。[2]

西溪笋是龙门县的特产，产自西溪一带的龙华镇西溪村、龙潭镇新寮村等地，原料为丛生大头竹的嫩芽，据百度百科，1995年被列入广东省“一乡一品”项目。[4]当地也把新寮村叫作“西溪”，那里出产的竹笋被认为品质最好。[2]

名胜古迹[edit]
