Graded rural stays, 171 of them.
Rural hotels and homestays that applied for and received a provincial grade. Four tiers, each with the address and the year it was graded. A place not on this list is not necessarily bad — it simply never applied.
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.

The 2025 provincial grading, four tiers. These are rural properties outside the city centres — the ones a hotel search usually buries. Addresses are as published, in Chinese.

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.
