Longbang (Chinese: 龙邦) is a town in Jingxi, Guangxi of China.[2] As of 2018, it has 12 villages under its administration.[3]

Most of its residents speak Zhuang dialects.[4] Its main touristic sight are the Pogala underground defense works, an underground fortification built in 1892.[5][6]

It is located near China's border with Vietnam, opposite the Trà Lĩnh District on the Vietnamese side.

Border crossing

[edit | edit source]

At the Longbang Border Crossing (龙邦口岸) (Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found.) just south of town, Guangxi provincial highway 210 (S210) reaches the international border. There are also plans to extend the Tiandong-Debao rail line (a branch of the Nanning-Kunming Railway) to the Longbang border crossing.[7]

According to a local travel guide site, there is a large market near the border crossing, where goods imported from Vietnam are sold.[8]
