Chenghai (Chinese Postal Map Romanisation: Tenghai; Chinese: 澄海; Hanyu Pinyin: Chénghǎi; Teochew: Thěng Hài) is a district of the city of Shantou, Guangdong Province, People's Republic of China.
It is the birthplace of Qin Mu, and Zheng Yong, the father of Taksin who was a Thai king.
It is located in the southeast part of Guangdong Province. Chenghai was a town founded since 1563 AD, under Teochew jurisdiction, controlled by Shantou City from 1983 to 1994. From 1994 onward, Chenghai was upgraded to a county-level city and was administrated by the Provincial Government directly. When in 2005, Chenghai was absorbed as a district by Shantou City, it had established its reputation as a world-class toy manufacturing hub.[citation needed]
Major industries: toys, handicrafts, clothing.
Famous people
- Taksin (Thai: สมเด็จพระเจ้ากรุงธนบุรี; Chinese: 鄭昭; pinyin: Zhèng Zhāo; Teochew: Dênchao): the first and only monarch of Thonburi kingdom.
- Pridi Banomyong (Thai: ปรีดี พนมยงค์; Chinese: 陈嘉祥/陈璋茂): former Prime Minister and Senior Statesman of Thailand
First Museum of Cultural Revolution
As the writer Ba Jin dreamt of, this maybe the first non-official museum in China mainland dedicated to the Cultural revolution. [clarification needed]
Some of the funding came from the Hong Kong businessman Li Ka-shing, originally from Shantou, who also funded Shantou University.
