Fresno (/ˈfrɛznoʊ/) is a major city in the San Joaquin Valley of California, United States. It is the county seat of Fresno County and the largest city in the greater Central Valley region. It covers about 115 square miles (300 km2) and had a population of 542,107 in 2020, making it the fifth-most populous city in California, the most populous inland city in California, and the 34th-most populous city in the nation. The Metro population of Fresno is 1,008,654 as of 2022.

Named for the abundant ash trees lining the San Joaquin River, Fresno was founded in 1872 as a railway station of the Central Pacific Railroad before it was incorporated in 1885. It has since become an economic hub of Fresno County and the San Joaquin Valley, with much of the surrounding areas in the Metropolitan Fresno region predominantly tied to large-scale agricultural production. Fresno is near the geographic center of California, approximately 220 miles (350 km) north of Los Angeles, 170 miles (270 km) south of the state capital, Sacramento, and 185 miles (300 km) southeast of San Francisco. Yosemite National Park is about 60 miles (100 km) to the north, Kings Canyon National Park 60 miles (100 km) to the east, and Sequoia National Park 75 miles (120 km) to the southeast.

Fresno is also the third-largest majority-Hispanic city in the United States; 50.5% of its population was Hispanic in 2020. Since 2010, statewide droughts in California have further strained both Fresno's and the entire Central Valley's water security.

During the four dynasties of Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, it was changed to Jiaxian in the Republic of China and Jiaxian in September 1964. It is located on the west bank of the middle reaches of the Yellow River in northeastern Shaanxi Province, southeast of Yulin City, and on the southeast edge of Maowusu Sandy Land. It is bordered by Mizhi County in the west, Wubao County in the south, Shenmu County in the north, Suide County in the southwest and Yuyang District in the northwest. It has jurisdiction over 12 towns and one street, with a county area of 2144 square kilometers, 43000 hectares of arable land, and a registered population of 269700 (2017). Mung beans are exported to Japan and other countries. There are Jiayu, Jiami and Jiawu three trunk highways connected with the county branch roads and the newly built Taijia and Yujia expressways. There are Baiyun Mountain Temple, Xianglu Temple, Yunyan Temple and other famous landscapes. September 25, 2018, access to business
