Shijiazhuang, Capital city in Hebei Province, China

Shijiazhuang stretches across 14,464 square kilometers at the edge of the North China Plain, near the Taihang Mountains and south of the Hutuo River.

The settlement evolved from a small village into a major urban center after 1906 when the Beijing-Hankou railway construction established it as a transportation junction.

The Hebei Provincial Museum in Shijiazhuang contains thousands of artifacts including bronze vessels, jade items, and Buddhist sculptures from different Chinese dynasties.

The city operates an extensive public transportation system with multiple metro lines and the Zhengding International Airport connecting to major destinations across Asia.

Shijiazhuang functions as a pharmaceutical manufacturing center, hosting numerous medicine production facilities that supply medications throughout China and internationally.
