City

Guiping

Eastern Asia

Guiping is a county-level city in eastern Guangxi, China, under the administration of Guigang City. It is located at the confluence of the Qian and Yu rivers, which are the Xi River's primary north and south tributaries respectively, so it stands where two major branches of the Pearl River system join. Its name is written 桂平 in Chinese characters and Gwai3ping4 in Jyutping romanization, reflecting the Cantonese-speaking character of this part of Guangxi.
