Guiyang, Provincial capital in southwest China.

Guiyang spreads across 8,034 square kilometers at an elevation of 1,100 meters, with the Nanming River flowing through its urban districts.

The region transformed from a military outpost during the Tang Dynasty into a major administrative center following the Yuan Dynasty's establishment in 1279.

The city population includes substantial Miao and Bouyei communities, who maintain their languages alongside the regional Southwestern Mandarin dialect.

The transportation network includes Longdongbao International Airport, multiple railway stations, and an expanding metro system serving over 4 million urban residents.

Recent economic development focuses on big data technology sectors, marking a shift from traditional aluminum and phosphate mining industries.
