A rebuilt ancient-style city on the banks of the Luan River, combining city walls, streets and a night-time light show; a popular night-tour destination in Tangshan.
Luanzhou Ancient City lies on the western bank of the Luan River in Luanzhou city. It was rebuilt based on the historical layout of Luanzhou (formerly called Pianliangting) and has city walls, gates, government offices, temples and a commercial street, with architecture in the northern Ming and Qing style. During the day you can climb the city walls and visit the folk museum. At night, once the lights come on, the ancient city and its reflection in the Luan River glow together, and there are often water-curtain light shows and folk performances. Entry to the ancient city is free, though some attractions charge. It is about 60 km from Tangshan's city centre, and it is served by the Luanhe high-speed rail station and intercity buses.
