Gaoping District is located in the southeastern part of Nanchong City, Sichuan Province, in the middle reaches of the Jialing River, and is an important transportation hub and regional economic growth pole in northeastern Sichuan. It has a long history and deep cultural heritage, with natural and humanistic landscapes such as Lingyun Mountain and Longmen Ancient Town, of which Lingyun Mountain is a national forest park, blending Buddhist culture with the wonders of karst landscapes. As one of the main cities in Nanchong, Gaoping has a solid foundation of modern agriculture, with obvious advantages in citrus, sericulture and other specialty industries, while relying on the Nanchong High-tech Industrial Park to actively develop electronic information, equipment manufacturing and other modern industries. The national intangible cultural heritages, such as Sichuan North Puppet and Sichuan North Shadow, have been inherited here, showing the unique folklore charm. In recent years, Gaoping has relied on ecological resources such as the "Jialing River Flow" to create a modern urban area suitable for living, working and traveling, and is an important node for the development of the northeast Sichuan urban agglomeration.
