 Encyclopedia: Sun Yat-sen   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
On November 12, 1866, Sun Yat-sen was born to a Hakka peasant family in the village of Cuiheng (翠亨村) (though it's said he spoke the Zhongshan dialect of Cantonese), now located inside the territory of the town of Nanlang (南郎镇), depending from the prefecture-level city of Zhongshan (中山市), Guangdong province, in southern China.
However, in 1925, at the death of Sun Yat-sen, the name of Xiangshan county was changed into Zhongshan county to honor his memory.
Then in 1983 it was turned into the county-level city of Zhongshan, and in 1988 it was elevated and made the prefecture-level city of Zhongshan (probably again to honor the home region of Sun Yat-sen), so that today there is no structure remaining at the county level.

 Weekend Standard -
Zhongshan is a lovely, low-key, tree-lined town, complete with a relaxed pedestrian shopping mall sporting Portuguese-style facades, though the bucolic effect was briefly marred by the sight of local police strolling in twos and threes sporting light machine guns with banana clips sprouting from the chambers.
Prior to our exercise in rampant consumerism in Zhongshan's mall, where we splurged on a variety of teas and DVDs, we had spent some time perusing the opposite side of the coin at a somewhat shabby museum memorializing an enormous 1970s-era Cultural Revolution commune, Ming Zhong.
Pan, who grew up in Zhongshan, was a near non-stop font of information and trivia concerning his hometown, which, in addition to Sun Yat-sen and shopping, is also known for its toy factories.
