Baizhou or Bai Prefecture was a zhou (prefecture) in imperial China in modern southern Guangxi, China. It existed intermittently from 623 to 1136, and between 742 and 758 it was known as Nanchang Commandery.

Counties

Bai Prefecture administered the following counties (縣) through history:

  • Bobai (博白), roughly modern Bobai County.
  • Nanchang (南昌)
  • Jianning (建寧)
  • Zhouluo (周羅)
  • Nanchang, Jianning, and Zhouluo, all abolished by the Song dynasty in 972, are probably all in modern Bobai County.
