    Yunfu (云浮, wàhn fàuh in Cantonese, Yúnfú in Mandarin), also known as Wanfow based on the Cantonese pronunciation, is a city with excellent mineral resources in Northern Guangdong. A center for stonework, mining, and related industry, Yunfu is nicknamed the "stone capital" of China. It's well off the beaten path for international tourists, but it does have some natural attractions.
