The Pingyuan (Chinese:平远) was a Chinese armored cruiser built by the Mawei Navy Yard, modelled on the French Acheron-class gunboat. The name is also spelled Ping Yuen, Ping Yuan or Ping-yüan. The Pingyuan was firstly named Longwei (Chinese:龙威), and was the first Chinese-built ironclad, though some of its components were imported from abroad. The Pingyuan was part of the Beiyang Fleet.
