Dachengshan Park
大城山公园
A hill park in northern Tangshan, home to the Xingguo Temple and a memorial to the Eastern Hebei Anti-Japanese Uprising. The summit offers views over the city.
Dacheng Mountain lies in Lubei District and is one of the highest points within the urban area of Tangshan. Legend holds that it was where a Tang emperor paused during his eastern campaign. The park contains the rebuilt Xingguo Temple, the Memorial to the Eastern Hebei People's Anti-Japanese Uprising, and the former site of the Tangshan Zoo. Shaded paths wind up the hill, and from the summit you can look over the city and the industrial landscape around Qixin and Kailuan. Entry is free. It is a good place to climb or stroll in the early morning or evening, and it can be combined with Qixin 1889 on the same outing.
