Linhai (; Tai-chow dialect: Lin-he) is a county-level city in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province situated on the banks of the Lin River in Eastern China.
As of the 2020 census, its population was 1,114,146 inhabitants even though its built-up (or metro) area is much smaller.
Its Cathedral of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is the episcopal see of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Linhai.
See also: Walled City of Taizhou Fu. Its wall attracts many tourists. According to the tickets for access to the wall, construction of the wall, originally over 6km (04miles) long, began in the Jin Dynasty (266–420) and was not finished until the Sui (581–618) and Tang (618–907) Dynasties. The northern portion, along a high ridge, and the western & southern portions, along the Lin River, still exist and are in good condition.
