Zunyi City is the centre of the tourist region in north of Guizhou and one of the main historic cultural cities of the state, which is known as a “garden province”. The name “Zunyi” came from “Wupian Wang Zhi yi”.

As the second largest city of Guizhou, with its south to Guiyang, west to sichuan, North Chongqing, Zunyi has an important location in terms oftransportaion and nature.

In January 1935, the Red Army arrived in Zunyi and the Central Committee of the CPC held the world renowned Zunyi Meeting here. And since then the Chinese revolution was pulled through and on the correct path. After liberation, the government has renovated the site of the Zunyi Meeting, the dwelling house in which Mao Zedong once lived, the site of the former General Political Department of the Red Army, the Meeting-Place of the Red Army's Cadres, the Cemetery of the Red Army Martyrs, the Loushan Pass and other historic places. Simultaneously the economic construction in large scale has been taken and in result, numbers of modern enterprises under the central or local governments have been set up in Zunyi, such as metallurgical, electric power, building materials, textile and food industries. In addition, both the Sichuan-Guizhou Railway and Highway pass by the city. However, Zunyi City becomes not only the political, economic and cultural centre but also the pivot of the communications in the northern region of Guizhou.
