Minneapolis (/ˌmɪniˈæpəlɪs/ (listen)) is the largest city in Minnesota, United States, and the county seat of Hennepin County. The city is abundant in water, with thirteen lakes, wetlands, the Mississippi River, creeks and waterfalls. Minneapolis has its origins in timber and as the flour milling capital of the world. It occupies both banks of the Mississippi River and adjoins Saint Paul, the state capital of Minnesota.

Prior to European settlement, the site of Minneapolis was inhabited by Dakota people. The settlement was founded along Saint Anthony Falls on a section of land north of Fort Snelling; its growth is attributed to its proximity to the fort and the falls providing power for industrial activity. As of 2021[update], the city has an estimated 425,336 inhabitants. It is the most populous city in the state and the 46th-most-populous city in the United States. Minneapolis, Saint Paul and the surrounding area are collectively known as the Twin Cities.

Minneapolis has one of the most extensive public park systems in the US; many of these parks are connected by the Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway. Biking and walking trails, some of which follow abandoned railroad lines, run through many parts of the city; such as the Mill District in the Saint Anthony Falls Historic District, around the banks of Lake of the Isles, Bde Maka Ska, and Lake Harriet, and by Minnehaha Falls. Minneapolis has cold, snowy winters and hot, humid summers. Minneapolis is the birthplace of General Mills, Pillsbury Company, and the Target Corporation. The city's cultural offerings include the Guthrie Theater, the First Avenue nightclub, and four professional sports teams.

Zhangping (ancient Zhangzhou capital Zhangping County, Ningyang County) is located in the southwest of Fujian Province, in the upper reaches of the Jiulong River (Beixi), between 24 °54 miles north latitude and 117 °11 miles east longitude. It is located in the east gate of western Fujian, Yongchun and Anxi in the east, Hua'an and Nanjing in the south, Silla in the west, Yongan and Datian in the north, Xiamen and other developed coastal areas in southern Fujian. It connects the hinterland of Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi. Zhangping bought the county in the seventh year of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty (1471), and withdrew the county to build the city in 1990. Zhangzhou Qiang Zhangping dialect is popular in Minnan dialect (some areas such as Xinqiao in Xinan are close to Quanzhou as spring cavities). In 2017, the regional GDP reached 23.256 billion yuan, an increase of 8% over the previous year.
