China Map Review

This interactive map allows you to practice the names of China's modern day provinces, provincial capitals, and a few other cities that are important for modern Chinese history. Keep in mind that China's provinces, autonomous regions, and directly administered cities have undergone a number of important changes so please consult other maps for earlier periods, especially before the 1960s.

Mouse over or tap on provinces and cities to show their name and check your memory. You may toggle the visibility of the Yellow River in the north and the Yangzi River in the south.

Map Quiz: This was created for use in my own teaching to help students prepare for their map quiz. Students will be given a blank map like the one on this page and asked to label the provinces, name the cities, and make their best attempt at drawing the (modern) course of the Yellow and Yangzi rivers.
