Wangchenggang and Yangcheng
Wangchenggang and Yangcheng, Archaeological site in Dengfeng, China.
The Wangchenggang and Yangcheng sites contain ancient walls, residential areas, and public buildings spread across multiple excavation zones in Henan province.
Excavations between 2002 and 2005 revealed the largest known Xia-period settlement, featuring two distinct walled cities from different construction periods.
The archaeological findings include ceramics, tools, and architectural remains that demonstrate the technological capabilities and social organization of early Chinese societies.
Visitors can access detailed information about the sites through guided tours and educational panels that explain the archaeological discoveries and their significance.
The smaller walled city within the complex follows an east-west orientation dating back to the Longshan period, marking a transition to organized urban planning.
