NANHAI
'Nanhai' (南海) is a district of Foshan prefecture-level city, in Guangdong province, southern China.
The town was established in 1271 by two brothers carrying their fathers bones. They were fleeing south from the Mongols on a bamboo raft when a violent storm shipwrecked them. The brothers settled down there and the position of the wreck is commemorated by a shrine. This area was named Broken Raft Point.
