Liupanshui, Administrative division and city in western Guizhou, China.

Located at an elevation of 1,816 meters, Liupanshui encompasses 9,926 square kilometers of territory in the Guizhou province, with a population exceeding 2.8 million residents.

The city was established in 1978 by merging three districts: Liuzhi, Panxian, and Shuicheng, in an area previously governed by the Yelang confederation of tribes.

The region houses 44 ethnic minorities, including Yi, Miao, and Buyi peoples, who maintain traditions through festivals, folk songs, and traditional dances like the Sea Horse dance.

The Liupanshui transportation network includes the intersection of three major railways: Shanghai-Kunming, Liupanshui-Baiguo, and Neijiang-Kunming, plus the Yuezhao Airport for air travel.

The city experiences notably low summer temperatures compared to surrounding regions, leading to its designation as the Cool Capital of China.
