Fùpíng
Fuping lies deep in the Taihang Mountains on the route between Hebei and Shanxi. Peaks and ravines enclose wooded valleys, and at Tianshengqiao a natural stone bridge spans a mountain gorge. Longquan Pass guarded a route through this rugged country. Much of the Great Wall in the district was built between 1573 and 1576 under the Ming, adding walls and strongpoints to the mountain defences.
