China Province Boundaries

All 34 province-level divisions as one clean, coded layer: GeoJSON, shapefile (.shp), SVG, DXF, GML, KML and CSV.

China Province Boundaries map preview

Thirty-four features covering the whole country at province level: the twenty-three provinces, five autonomous regions, four municipalities and the two special administrative regions. The maritime and river boundary lines the source publishes are included as their own layer, because a map of China without them is incomplete.
