Yongjing (simplified Chinese: 永靖县; traditional Chinese: 永靖縣; pinyin: Yǒngjìng Xiàn; Wade–Giles: Yung-ching Hsien, Xiao'erjing: ﻳْﻮ دٍ ﺷِﯿًﺎْ) is a county in Linxia Hui Autonomous Prefecture in China's Gansu Province. The county seat, the town (zhen) of Liujiaxia (simplified Chinese: 刘家峡; traditional Chinese: 劉家峽; pinyin: Liújiāxiá; Wade–Giles: Liu-chia-hsia), is located about 80 km south-west from the provincial capital city, Lanzhou. As is the case with most Chinese county seats, Liujiaxia Town is labeled on most less-detailed maps simply as "Yongjing" or "Yongjing County".
The Liujiaxia Dam on the Yellow River is located on the eastern outskirts of Liujiaxia Town.
