When I am searching '藕舫路276号' string in BING MAP it is locating proper place. But when I am trying to invoke BING MAP REST API using the below request, I am not getting proper lat-long values.

    Hello @Jerry . Are you trying to use the api in China market? If so, could you try to add &culture=zh-cn to the url and check whether the result is expected?
