Shangjing Longquanfu, Archaeological capital ruins in Ning'an, China

The archaeological site features stone walls measuring 2.4 meters in thickness, with five east-west streets intersecting three north-south streets forming rectangular blocks.

Shangjing Longquanfu served as the principal capital of the Balhae Kingdom from 756 to 785 and again from 793 to 926 in present-day Heilongjiang.

The northern section contains five grand halls aligned on a north-south axis, with two ceremonial structures and three residential buildings for imperial purposes.

The site lies 3 kilometers from Dongjingcheng town, surrounded by the Mudan River on three sides and positioned near Lake Jingpo in Heilongjiang Province.

The imperial garden features a 20,000-square-meter pond flanked by two pavilions, demonstrating the sophisticated architectural planning of the Balhae period.
