Anqing, Prefecture-level administrative city in Anhui province, China.

Anqing extends across 16,300 square kilometers along the northern bank of the Yangtze River, bordered by the Dabie Mountains in southwestern Anhui province.

The city functioned as the capital of Anhui province during early Qing dynasty until 1937, serving as the administrative center for the regional governor-general.

The region stands as the birthplace of Huangmei opera, a traditional performance style that gained national recognition through local artists in the 1950s.

The Anqing Tianzhushan Airport and Yangtze River Bridge connect the city to major destinations like Shanghai and Nanjing via intercity railway lines.

The local dialect merges elements from three Chinese language varieties: Gan Chinese, Wu Chinese, and Lower Yangtze Mandarin.
