👣Hebei, standing at the crossroads of North China and Northeast China, is anciently known as the land of Yan and Zhao, and is abbreviated as Ji. Nestled within the North China Plain, it is bordered by the Bohai Sea to the east, embracing Beijing and Tianjin, flanked by the majestic Taihang Mountains to the west, and the Yanshan Mountains to the north. Its terrain rises from northwest to southeast, gradually sloping downwards. Uniquely, Hebei is the only province in China that boasts a diverse landscape encompassing highlands, mountains, hills, plains, lakes, and coastal areas.
👣Hebei is situated atop the Haihe and Luanhe river systems, with its major rivers flowing from south to north, including the Zhangweinan Canal, Ziya River, Daqing River, Yongding River, Chaobai River, Jiyun River, and Luanhe River. These rivers belong to the four major water systems of Haihe, Luanhe, inland rivers, and Liaohe, making Hebei a significant producer of grain and cotton in China.
👣As an important cradle of Chinese civilization, Hebei is not only home to world cultural heritage sites such as the Great Wall, Chengde Mountain Resort, the Eastern Qing Tombs, and the Western Qing Tombs, but also boasts five nationally recognized historical and cultural cities: Handan, Baoding, Chengde, Zhengding, and Shanhaiguan. The Great Wall within its borders extends over two thousand kilometers, featuring diverse highlights like Shanhaiguan and Jinshanling. Chengde Mountain Resort stands as the most magnificent royal garden in existence worldwide, while the Eastern and Western Qing Tombs are considered the largest and most well-preserved imperial mausoleum clusters in China.
