Wuhai
Wuhai
(; ) is a
prefecture-level city
and regional center in the
Inner Mongolia
Autonomous Region
of the
People's Republic of China
, and is by area the smallest
prefecture-level division
of the region. It is located on the
Yellow River
between the
Gobi
and
Ordos
deserts
. Wuhai became a single city occupying both banks of the Yellow River with the amalgamation on 1976 of left-bank (west)
Uda
(then administrated by
Bayan Nuur League
) together with
Haibowan
on the right (east) bank (then administrated by
Ikh Juu league
). Wuhai is one of very few cities with an
antipode
which is not only on land (as opposed to open ocean), but which is another inhabited city; the antipode of Wuhai is almost exactly on the city of
Valdivia
, Chile.
