City

Shijiazhuang

Eastern Asia

Shijiazhuang is the capital and most populous city of China's Hebei Province, located about 266 kilometers southwest of Beijing east of the Taihang Mountains. Little more than a small village before the arrival of the railway in the early twentieth century, Shijiazhuang grew rapidly into a major rail junction and industrial center, and today administers eight districts, three county-level cities and eleven counties.
