Joaquín Royo Pérez was an 18th-century Spanish Dominican friar and missionary who served the Catholic Church in China. Born in Hinojosa de Jarque in 1691, he joined his religious order in Valencia before traveling to the Philippines in 1712. After his ordination in 1715, he dedicated his life to missionary work across various regions, including Macao, Fu'an, and several provinces. He eventually served as a vicar provincial in Fujian before facing persecution for his faith.
