Nanping is a picturesque old city, located on a hill near the fall of the Jianxi Brook into the Min, and surrounded by high stone walls, which were used to prevent artillery fire. They formed a considerable obstacle to anything hostile in past conflicts. The city flower is lily.
There are towering peaks and widespread low mountains in the territory, with river valleys and small basins scattered among them. Its landscape is dominated by hills and mountains and echoes a traditional Chinese saying that describes southern China as "eight parts mountain, one part water, and one part farmland".
