What would they call it? Neo Delta?

Good luck trying to find parking or space for DimSum on a weekend.

The plan has been dubbed ‘Turn the Pearl River Delta Into One’, and will see nine cities combined into an urban area two times the size of Wales. The area is located on the Chinese mainland north of Hong Kong and Macau and includes the cities of Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Jiangmen, Huizhou, Dongguan, Huizhou, Zhongshan, Zhuhai and Zhaoqing.
The area spans some 16,000 square miles and accounts almost 20% of China’s economy. Once merged, the heavily industrious mega city will comprise an urban area more than 25 times the size of Greater London.
