Gulei (Chinese: 古雷; pinyin: Gǔléi; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Kó͘-lûi; lit. 'old thunder') is a town in Zhangpu County in the far south of Fujian province, China. It lies on a long peninsula, also called Gulei, which projects into the Taiwan Strait, enclosing the Zhang River estuary / Dongshan Bay to its east. The town is the furthest south of any in Zhangpu, one of its villages (called Gulei) being only 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) from the main island of Dongshan.
By 2017, Gulei town and the entire Gulei peninsula have been cleared of population for the construction of the Tenglong Chemical Complex.
