Hua County or Huaxian (Template:Zh) is a county under the administration of Anyang City, in the north of Henan province, China.

Its predecessor administrative area Huazhou/Hua prefecture was first established in 596 during the Sui dynasty. In 606 it was named Yanzhou (Script error: No such module "Lang-zh".), and soon after as Dong commandery. In 618 it was combined with present Changyuan and Yanjin as Huazhou again. In 1372 it was demoted to a county.[1] The name 'Hua' means 'slip', given because the city had many slipways.[2]
