Guangzhou
Before the advent of Guangzhou, there was a small village in this place. And people were constantly starving in it. In response to the prayers of the inhabitants, the gods descended from heaven on 5 goats. There were ears of rice in the mouths of the animals. With these ears, the inhabitants escaped hunger and sowed the fields. That is why Guangzhou is also called Suicheng (the city of rice ears). Or Yangcheng (city of goats).
