Jieyang

Jieyang is a large city in eastern Guangdong where the Rongjiang River winds through the urban centre before reaching the South China Sea, historically significant as the ancestral home of millions of overseas Chinese across Southeast Asia. The old city holds temples, southern-style arcades, and a network of alleys suited to slow exploration, while the surrounding terrain shifts from coastal plains to hill country in the northwest.
