Guangdong · first edition
Hospitals, 35 of them.
Two city health commissions publish a machine-readable hospital register — Dongguan and Guangzhou — and only Guangzhou, the provincial capital, is listed here. Ownership and bed count where the notice gives them.
Names stay in Chinese on purpose. That is the string on the ticket gate, the road sign and the map app — paste it into any of them and it resolves. A romanisation we invented would not.

04 · Where you are treated · 医院
35 hospitals in Guangzhou, the provincial capital, that can take an international patient.
No register has an "international clinic" field, so this list is screened by institution name — teaching hospitals of Sun Yat-sen, Southern Medical, Guangzhou Medical and Jinan universities, the provincial and municipal people's hospitals, and any hospital with 国际 in its name. Ownership is not published for these entries, so it is left blank rather than guessed from the name.
Guangzhou · by district · 35
Ownership is not published for these 35 rows. They are grouped by the district the register gives, so the list can be read next to a map rather than as one undifferentiated block.

The boundary
This guide does not diagnose, recommend treatment, rank hospitals by clinical quality, or quote prices. Clinical decisions belong to the hospital and its doctors. What is listed here is what the registers publish: the institution, its category, its address, its bed count, and — where the register says so — who owns it.
06 · Limits
What this page still does not have.
A gap that is named is a gap you can plan around. A gap filled with something plausible is worse than nothing.
Missing register
19 more hospital registers
Only Dongguan and Guangzhou publish a machine-readable hospital register we could transcribe, and only Guangzhou — the provincial capital — is listed here. The other 19 prefectures have no equivalent open list, and the provincial health commission publishes no master registry at all.
Missing register
No official list of dishes
There is no government register of what a prefecture eats, so the food layer is built from videos people shot themselves. It is a lead, not a citation — and the count moves as channels publish and delete.
Missing layer
Intangible heritage
The national intangible-cultural-heritage register (非遗) is not transcribed. That layer is what would let a guide say why a village matters, not just that it is on a list.
