Taixing

Taixing (simplified Chinese: 泰兴; traditional Chinese: 泰興; pinyin: Tàixīng) is a county-level city under the administration of Taizhou, Jiangsu province, China.

It is located in the Yangtze River Delta, bordering the prefecture-level cities of Nantong to the east, Changzhou to the southwest, and Zhenjiang to the west.

The southern Hailin county was taken away to create Taixing in 938, administered by Taizhou.

It was under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou during the era of Yuan and Ming, but was transferred to Tongzhou later.

[2] At present, Taixing City has one subdistrict, 14 towns, and one township.
