I believe everyone knows that China's "two Guangxi" are Guangxi and Guangdong.
Although the two provinces are very close and similar in all aspects, their economies are vastly different.
At present, Guangdong is China's largest economic province, and although Guangxi is not at the bottom of the country, its ranking is still relatively low.
However, apart from the economy, other differences between the two regions are not particularly big.
For this reason, today we will introduce to you the city in Guangxi that most resembles Guangdong. The locals speak Cantonese and eat Cantonese food, and there is no Guangxi temperament at all.
This city is Wuzhou, located in the eastern part of Guangxi Province. It is a city with an area of ??12,588 square kilometers and a population of 3.52 million.
Although Guangxi is an ethnic minority autonomous region, the Han population in Wuzhou accounts for 97.48% of the total population, while the ethnic minority population accounts for only 2.52%.
It is understood that this is because in ancient times, Wuzhou's economy developed rapidly, so many northern Han people gathered in Wuzhou, so Wuzhou became the birthplace of Cantonese and Cantonese.
All in all, Wuzhou has a deep connection with Guangdong. For this reason, people in Wuzhou still have a good impression of Guangdong.
If you have been to Wuzhou, you must have noticed walking on the streets of Wuzhou.
You can hear very pure Cantonese and eat very authentic Cantonese food.
In addition, Wuzhou is also a city with a long history. It has a history of more than 2,200 years. For this reason, there are many important figures who have left Wuzhou in history.
For example, everyone is familiar with Chen Qin, Shi Xie, Yuan Chonghuan, Li Jishen, Liang Yusheng, Gao Bolong, etc.
Therefore, Wuzhou is still a city full of talents. Of course, in addition, Wuzhou also has many places of interest and various scenic spots.
For example, Qilou City, Longmu Temple, Canghai Lake Tourist Area, Shibiaoshan Scenic Area and Li Jishen’s Former Residence are all well-known scenic spots in Wuzhou. If you have the opportunity to come to Wuzhou in the future, you must visit them one by one.
Finally, there are many special delicacies in Wuzhou, such as the familiar turtle paste, paper-wrapped chicken, ice spring soy milk, Cenxi classic chicken, soup rice noodles, Wuzhou sausage, Cenxi red, etc., all of which are from Wuzhou.
What has been spread is that many people may not understand it very well and think it comes from Guangdong.
In this regard, some netizens said: Let me correct the statement that Wuzhou dialect is not Cantonese. All vernacular dialects are called Cantonese, including those in vernacular areas such as Nanning, Wuzhou, and Yulin in Guangxi and Guangdong. All vernacular dialects in Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and Macau are called Cantonese.
The dialect spoken in Foshan and other places is called Cantonese.
