Where is Huizhou and in which province?

Huizhou belongs to Guangdong Province.

Huizhou City is located in the south-central part of Guangdong Province. It is a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Guangdong Province. It is located at a low latitude, with the Tropic of Cancer passing through Huizhou City. It is backed by Luofu Mountain and faces Daya Bay in the south. The East River meanders for more than 100 kilometers within the territory, and it belongs to the east coast of the Pearl River Delta and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Huizhou is adjacent to Shenzhen and Hong Kong, Heyuan City to the north, Shanwei City to the east, and Dongguan City and Guangzhou City to the west. It is one of the central cities in the Pearl River Delta.

Huizhou is also one of the important settlement and distribution centers for Hakka people.

Overseas Chinese and compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan rank first among the four Hakka states and are known as the capital of Hakka overseas Chinese. Huizhou is the place where the three major ethnic groups in Guangdong, the Hakkas, Chaoshan people, and Guangfu people, have been most successfully integrated. It is also one of the important channels for the Hakkas to move from land civilization to maritime civilization.

The Hakka people are the largest group among Huizhou people. Hakka culture is an indispensable and important part of Huizhou culture. Huizhou is the ancestral home of many Hakka overseas Chinese. In more than 1,000 years from the Tang Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, more than 430 Chinese celebrities stayed in Huizhou or visited Huizhou, leaving many historical and cultural heritages that the world is proud of. Huizhou City's regional GDP in 2020 was 422.179 billion yuan.
