Guangxi, Autonomous region in southern China

The region extends across 220,400 square kilometers of varied terrain, from mountainous landscapes in the north to lower elevations near the Gulf of Tonkin.

The Chinese government established Guangxi as an autonomous region in 1958, granting special administrative status to preserve the heritage of the Zhuang ethnic group.

The Zhuang people maintain their traditional practices through folk songs, crafts, and festivals that represent their ethnic identity within the broader Chinese society.

The regional capital Nanning serves as a transportation center with direct connections to Vietnam, making it a strategic point for international trade and commerce.

The karst formations in the region create an intricate network of underground rivers and caves, shaping the geological characteristics of the entire territory.
