The Greater Bay Area is located in southern China within the region where the Pearl River meets the South China Sea. The area consists of nine cities in mainland China together with the Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Regions.
With a land area of some 56,000km2 and a population of around 72,000,000 the GDP stands at USD1.68 trillion. That GDP number approximates to that of Australia (USD1.4 trillion) or South Korea (USD1.6 trillion) – and it’s not standing still!
