Xingcheng Old Town, Protected historical site in Xingcheng, China
The ancient town features intact Ming Dynasty city walls stretching around the settlement with traditional buildings, temples, and numerous architectural structures from the period.
The construction of Xingcheng's defensive walls in 1428 created a strategic military outpost that proved instrumental during the Battle of Ningyuan against Manchu forces in 1626.
The central drum tower guides visitors through streets filled with merchants selling regional specialties, while temples display traditional Chinese spiritual practices and ceremonies.
The site entrance costs 100 yuan per person, with direct train connections from Huludao city and Qinhuangdao offering convenient transportation options for visitors.
The northeastern city maintains its original Ming Dynasty urban layout, centered around the drum tower with small buildings featuring pointed rooftops and traditional decorative elements.
