Qin Shi Huang Birthplace Memorial Hall

The Qin Shi Huang Birthplace Memorial Hall is located in the area of the Warming Palace ruins and the former hostage residence in the Zhao capital Handan Kuocheng from the Warring States period. It is situated around Zhujiagang Street in Congtai District, Handan City, Hebei Province, in the southwest part of Congtai Park. The main buildings of the memorial hall include a residential area, an exhibition area, and classical garden landscapes. The residential area contains the main house, annex rooms, stables, wells, and other living scenes, recreating the appearance of the hostage residence during the Warring States period. The exhibition area uses mortise and tenon structures and tall pillars to construct a Qin dynasty palace style, with interior exhibition wall texts in Warring States seal script. The garden is designed as a classical garden with small bridges and flowing water, preserving original facilities such as the Hui Liang Pavilion. The hall mainly exhibits Warring States period artifacts unearthed in the Handan area, historical materials related to Qin Shi Huang, academic papers, and literary works. It also showcases Qin Shi Huang’s growth journey in Handan through artistic reliefs, woodblock prints, and other forms.
