Located at the throat of the nine provinces, the strategic area of the capital! Capital of Zhongshan State Dingzhou·Hebei

After leaving the capital and heading southwest for about 200 kilometers, you can reach the ancient city of Dingzhou. This place was once the capital of the Zhongshan State during the Warring States period over 2000 years ago, later destroyed by the State of Zhao. Dingzhou is renowned for its long history and splendid culture. Since the Shang and Zhou dynasties, Dingzhou has always been a political, economic, military, and cultural center in the north, leaving behind a rich cultural heritage. The main attractions of the ancient city include: Kaiyuan Temple, the Tribute Academy, the Ancient Prefecture Office, the Temple of Literature, the Museum, Kaiyuan Street, Song Street, and Chongwen Street, etc. Among them, the pagoda of Kaiyuan Temple, built during the Northern Song Dynasty, stands at 83.7 meters tall and is the highest existing brick pagoda in China, known as the 'Number One Pagoda in China'. Warm tips: The attractions in Dingzhou are not far from each other. You can dine on Chongwen Street and stay on Song Street. The hotels here also offer free Hanfu photography, which is very people-friendly!
