Nanchong
Sichuan Province · China
The Jialing River, a tributary of the Yangtze, runs through the heart of this large city in northeastern Sichuan, shaping its geography as it flows south through hilly terrain to meet the Xichong River in the urban centre. Nanchong is historically known for its citrus production and silk, earning it the nicknames "Fruit City" and "Silk Capital," and it serves as the economic and cultural hub of the northeastern Sichuan Basin.
