Abstract
Reactor neutrinos are perfect tools for neutrino oscillation studies. I will review a little bit the history and introduce the Daya Bay experiment, including its design, R&D,
construction, and physics results. The newly constructed JUNO experiment is not only a reactor neutrino experiment for the mass hierarchy and oscillation, but also for
supernova and other astrophysics studies. I will brief its design and progress of its construction.
