the only think I know about chaozhou is that last year I used to live in gaozhou and my mail often got lost, and was sent there instead. Watch your mail is addressed carefully if you go there. |

Hmmm ... famous for their mafia ... for being the smuggling capital of China ... for being China's counterfeit currency capital ... for being the market leader in just about any enterprise that produces counterfeit goods?
A reasonable person will take with a grain of salt any claim of any Chinese national that claims to come from the best hometown in the world. |

Not the best, just the most famous and historic. |

And an even bigger grain of salt anybody that claims their hometown is the "most famous and historic." |
