Hanzhong, Prefecture-level city in Shaanxi, China

Hanzhong extends across 27,246 square kilometers between the Daba Mountains and Qin Mountains, with the Hanjiang River flowing through its fertile valley.

The city served as the governing seat of Hanzhong Commandery during the Qin dynasty, later inspiring Liu Bang to name his Han dynasty after this region.

The city maintains 131 protected historical sites, including the Baoxie Plank Road and Temple of Marquis Wu, along with 34 national cultural heritage elements.

The Hanzhong Chenggu Airport connects the city with major metropolitan areas, while its position links the provinces of Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Gansu.

Hanzhong functions as a natural sanctuary for rare species like crested ibises and giant pandas, earning recognition as the Gene Bank of Natural Species.
