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.

Liwan District, Guangzhou Municipal District, is located in the west of Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, connected with Yuexiu District in the east, Baiyun District in the north and northwest, and Nanhai District in Foshan City in the west. Liwan, commonly known as "Xiguan", gets its name from "Lizhi Bay", which has a reputation of "a bay of green water and red litchi on both sides of the strait". It is known as "Xiguan", "Lizhi Bay" and "Shuixiu flower fragrance". It has a good reputation of "experiencing Lingnan culture to Guangzhou, but not visiting Liwan". It is one of the three old districts of Guangzhou. During the Ming Dynasty, it was already an important port for China's foreign trade and cultural exchanges. During the Qing Dynasty, it was China's only foreign trade window for more than 100 years. Liwan District is the core area of the central city of Guangzhou and Guangfo metropolitan area, with "first Street and second Road".
