City

Luoding

Eastern Asia

Luoding is a county-level city in the northwestern part of Guangdong province, in the Yuebei area of South China. It is administered as part of the prefecture-level city of Yunfu, and is written 罗定 in simplified Chinese characters. As a county-level city it is governed through Yunfu rather than directly by the province. The article that describes it gives little detail beyond its administrative position, so its place in the province is best understood through that parent city and the north-western Guangdong area around it.
