Xuanhua Ancient City Tourist Area, a tourist area in Zhangjiakou City, is known as the "First Prefecture in Western Beijing". Xuanhua City was first built in the first year of Emperor Xinzong of Tang Dynasty (888) and started to be built in the seventeenth year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (1394). The circumference of the city is 100 kilometers. Because Zhu Sui, the nineteenth son of Zhu Yuanzhang, was conferred the title of King of Valley, it was built into a large-scale city with a structure similar to that of the capital. In the thirty-second year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (1693), Xuanfu Guard was abolished and replaced by Xuanhua Prefecture, which means to spread education. Xuanhua got its name from this. It is the first prefecture city west of Beijing, so it is called "First Prefecture in Western Beijing". There are 3 national key cultural relics protection units, 10 Hebei Provincial key cultural relics protection units in the tourist area, and 9 of them are "First in Western Beijing".
