Where is Tangshan?

From the Fuxing Road underpass bridge in Tangshan to the west along the railway, the highland on the left hand side is the hilly world where Tangshan was once as famous as Beijing Tianqiao, Tianjin Sanbuguan and Nanjing Confucius Temple. On the right is Tangshan Old Station, the first passenger train station in China. On the west side of the old station are Dongjuzi, the former management organization of Tangshan Kaiping Mining Bureau, and Dongjuzi Street, Tangshan First Street. Further to the left is the birthplace of China Pingju, Tangshan Yongsheng Tea Garden. Further on, it is the busiest old overpass north of Tangshan Ring Road. On the right side of the overpass is the original site of Hua Bin Hotel Building, the headquarters of Zhihui Department, a famous strike of Tangshan Minmetals. Under the bridge is the north gate of the first railway automatic gate in China. Continue along the railway, and on the right is Tangshan Mine, the first good mine in China. There is the first railway and highway interchange project in the mining area-Kailuan Bainian Road. Further on, it's called Shuangqiaoli. Although the first railway culvert bridge in China has been rock-solid for a hundred years. Further on, Yonghong Bridge turned out to be the famous south gate of Tangshan. Beyond Nandaomen, on the left are the famous Laonan Factory and Tangshan Locomotive and Rolling Stock Factory. Tangshan earthquake ruins park occupies the southwest corner of the factory. Opposite the South Factory is the earliest Tangshan Railway Station in China, now called Tangshan South Station. On the right front of the railway station is Tangshan Railway Institute, the earliest institute of science and technology in China. Earlier than Tsinghua Peking University!

Along the way, we are proud of the first railway in China! The old Jingshan line from Tangshan to Xugezhuang!

This is a narrow strip, less than a kilometer wide from north to south and only five miles long from east to west. There are a dozen China first! This is a string of pearls buried by historical dust! The first railway in China is the route, and those historic sites are pearls!

This is a gold thread! This area is clearly the natural museum of modern industry in China!

Digging this string of pearls out of the dust, restoring the original building and building an open museum with tourism value is actually very simple. Because the area is very concentrated, the original building is not difficult.

In this way, you can enter the museum park from the east entrance of the present hill and walk all the way to the National Mine Park at the west gate of Kailuan. The history of Tangshan, the history of modern industry in China, including the past glory of Tangshan, is clear at a glance! If we broaden our thinking and restore some western-style business districts around Shi Liang Street-Jianguo Road and Cheap Street-Hill, it will be one of the most fascinating tourist attractions in Tangshan.

We can't always talk about the first railway, the first locomotive, the first bag of cement and the first railway station in China, but we can't touch it. History should not be illusory. Xibaipo today is not in the original site of Xibaipo. Does it matter? What's more, the Tangshan railway hasn't moved there yet, and the train is still passing through!

When we hope to rebuild the hill and restore some important signs in the hill area, people often say that this is nostalgia, backwardness and decadence. It is said that the new Tangshan is creating new glory, and the decline of hills as the product of the old times is inevitable! He also said that those who made a fuss on the hill were a group of antiques with colored glasses, and they didn't like it today, and they didn't like it today! Although some people also talk about the past and history of the hills there, they actually just "copy" other people's information online, which is not new.

Yes, Tangshan is creating brilliance, but Tangshan is also making regrets! Giving up the mountain of Tangshan means giving up its glorious history, its past glory, its basic lineage and its unlimited industrial tourism prospects in the future. This is tantamount to self-harm! Destroy your future! This non-Tangshan short-sighted view is an unforgivable mistake!

Just imagine, if Beijing had no Forbidden City and no ancient buildings dotted around now, would it still be as brilliant as it is now? If there are no ancient city walls, terracotta warriors and horses and so many historical sites in Xi 'an, what is there to show off? Yes, Tangshan experienced a big earthquake. But hasn't Tangshan been preaching reconstruction?

In recent years, the slogan of building Tangshan into a famous cultural city and striving to build Tangshan's cultural business card is loud and clear, and of course, some scenic spots have been made. However, we must abandon the hilly area and the reconstruction along the first railway in China, which can best show the historical and cultural heritage of Tangshan and reflect the profound meaning of Tangshan's cultural business card. Why?

The amorous feelings town is not the hill it used to be. We have the money to do landscaping, why not make some contributions to the real history!

The history of Tangshan is precious, because it is the cradle of modern industry in China. Of course there is a big earthquake. This unique history makes all Tangshan people proud. It is the confidence to speak to the outside world. In fact, today's dignitaries have made achievements by relying on the history of Tangshan. Imagine, if there is no old Tangshan, why can you say "gorgeous turn"? If there is no old Tangshan, why can we say "turning decay into magic"? If there is no old Tangshan, there will be no development of Caofeidian Motorized Car City. Isn't all this built on the backbone of old Tangshan? Therefore, restoring some historical features of old Tangshan is related to Tangshan, benefiting the country and benefiting future generations. This is a responsibility, a mission and an obligation. For the Tangshan earthquake, this is also part of the earthquake relief!

History can certainly be found in history books. However, if those historical sites are still there, they can be restored, made into museums and made into famous industrial tourist attractions at home and abroad, why don't we!
