City Overview

Langfang, in central Hebei between Beijing and Tianjin, is a core corridor city of Jing-Jin-Ji coordinated development — the "pearl of the Beijing-Tianjin corridor." Electronics-information, exhibitions (the Silk Road International Cultural Exchange Center) and modern services are strong; its "Three Northern Counties" (Sanhe, Dachang, Xianghe) integrate deeply with Beijing’s Tongzhou sub-center. Cost of living is below Beijing with convenient commuting, making it a front-line city absorbing capital functions, with outstanding locational value.
