Fuzhou's economic and cultural institutions have grown and developed throughout the mid-Tang Dynasty.

The later years of the Tang have seen a number of political upheavals in the Chinese heartland, prompting another wave of Chinese to immigrate to the modern-day Fujian and Guangdong areas.

In 879, a large part of the city had been captured by the army of Huang Chao during their rebellion against the Tang government.

In 893, the warlord brothers Wang Chao and Wang Shenzhi had captured Fuzhou in a rebellion against the Tang Dynasty, successfully gaining control of the entire Fujian Province.

Fuzhou City is expanded in 901 with construction of a new city wall ("Luo City").
