Baizhou or Bai Prefecture was a zhou (prefecture) in imperial China in modern southern Guangxi, China. It existed intermittently from 623 to 1136, and between 742 and 758 it was known as Nanchang Commandery.[3]

[edit | edit source]Bai Prefecture administered the following counties (縣) through history:
- Bobai (博白), roughly modern Bobai County.[4]
- Nanchang (南昌)[5]
