You might ask, "Where?". Well, it is not exactly a well-known place in China, but it certainly a well-established industrial city with a population of 7 million.

Known as one of the four "furnaces" of China (the others being Xinjiang, Wuhan and Hainan Dao), it has a warm weather in Spring and mild temperatrue in Winter.

Shijiazhuang is not only a well-known city for steel mills and other heavy industries, it is also the spot where the police arrested many Fa Lun Gong practitioners previously.

Located at about 280km to the south-west of Beijing, there are two convenient ways to get there; one is by a very modern highway and the other is by a very clean and punctual train service.

Let the pictures do the talking now.....
