Foshan Prison

Foshan Prison (Chinese: 佛山监狱; pinyin: Fúshān jiānyùi) is a prison in the Gaoming District of Foshan City, Guangdong Province, China. The prison was established as Xijiang Mengjiang Laogai Farm in 1958 and took the name of Foshan Prison in 1995. Prisoners once mined ore at the adjacent Fuwan Xijiang Manganese Mine (富湾西江锰矿), where deposits are now exhausted such that prisoner activity now involves industrial production of rattan and wool goods.[1]
