Fuzhou or Fu Prefecture was a zhou (prefecture) in imperial China in modern Fujian, China, seated in modern Fuzhou.[2] It existed (intermittently) from 725 until 1278.
It was known as Changle Prefecture (長樂府) between 933 and 948 when it was the capital of Min.[3] It was also briefly known as Fu'an Prefecture (福安府) between 1276 and 1277 when it was the capital of the Song dynasty.
The modern prefecture-level city Fuzhou retains its name.
