Raleigh (/ˈrɑːli/; RAH-lee) is the capital city of the state of North Carolina and the seat of Wake County in the United States. It is the second-most populous city in North Carolina, after Charlotte. Raleigh is the tenth-most populous city in the Southeast, the 41st-most populous city in the U.S., and the largest city of the Research Triangle metro area. Raleigh is known as the "City of Oaks" for its many oak trees, which line the streets in the heart of the city. The city covers a land area of 147.6 sq mi (382 km2). The U.S. Census Bureau counted the city's population as 474,069 in the 2020 census. It is one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States. The city of Raleigh is named after Sir Walter Raleigh, who established the lost Roanoke Colony in present-day Dare County.

Raleigh is home to North Carolina State University (NC State) and is part of the Research Triangle together with Durham (home of Duke University and North Carolina Central University) and Chapel Hill (home of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). The name of the Research Triangle (often shortened to the "Triangle") originated after the 1959 creation of Research Triangle Park (RTP), located in Durham and Wake counties, among the three cities and universities. The Triangle encompasses the U.S. Census Bureau's Raleigh-Durham-Cary Combined Statistical Area (CSA), which had an estimated population of 2,037,430 in 2013. The Raleigh Metropolitan Statistical Area had an estimated population of 1,390,785 in 2019.

Most of Raleigh is located within Wake County, with a small portion extending into Durham County. The towns of Cary, Morrisville, Garner, Clayton, Wake Forest, Apex, Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, Knightdale, Wendell, Zebulon, and Rolesville are some of Raleigh's primary nearby suburbs and satellite towns.

Baoshan District, located in the north of Shanghai, is divided into two parts: land and island. On land, it is bordered by the Yangtze River in the northeast, Huangpu River in the east, Yangpu, Hongkou, Jing'an and Putuo in the south, Jiading District in the west, Taicang City in Jiangsu Province in the northwest, and Yunzaobang in the middle of China. Wusong Bridge, Yunchuan Road Bridge, Jiangyang Road Bridge and Tangqiao Bridge span it. The two islands of Changxing and Hengsha lie in the south branch of the Yangtze River Estuary from west to east. They are 56.15km long from east to west and 23.08km wide from north to south, covering an area of 424.56 square kilometers. Located at the confluence of the Huangpu River and the Yangtze River, Baoshan can be called the "waterway gateway" of Shanghai. It connects more than 400 ports in 164 countries and regions by sea. The throughput of containers accounts for more than 70% of Shanghai Port.
