Geographical environment of Hexi Zhen Wu

Located at the junction of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, 60 kilometers away from Beijing and Tianjin, this town is in the hinterland of "Great Beijing Strategy" and "Bohai Economic Circle" and has a unique geographical advantage.

Hexi Town, wuqing district, Tianjin is located between Beijing and Tianjin, at the junction of Beijing and Tianjin, and governs 5 1 village street. The registered population of the town is 40,500, and the floating population is nearly 1 10,000, covering an area of nearly 70 square kilometers.

Tianjin Wuqingke Hua Wei Economic Zone is located in the south of Hexi Town, bordering 103 National Road in the east, and the proposed Beijing-Tianjin-expressway will cross from north to south. The planned economic zone covers an area of 6.9 square kilometers, with the first phase of development 1 square kilometer. The area has a flat surface and a good geological structure. The Economic Zone is 60km away from Beijing and Tianjin, 65km away from Beijing Capital Airport and Tianjin Binhai Airport, 90km away from Tianjin Port, and13km away from the entrance of Beijing-Tianjin-Tanggu Expressway. In addition, expressway and railways in countries such as Beijing-Harbin, Beijing-Kowloon, Tianjin, Beijing-Fuzhou, Tianjin-Weifang and Beijing-Shenyang Expressway pass through the surrounding areas, making land, sea and air transportation very convenient. With convenient communication and complete infrastructure such as water and electricity, it is an ideal investment treasure for the vast number of merchants.

The following is my record of Hexi affairs in the first half of the 1940s:

Hexi town, which is narrow from north to south and long from east to west, is a street that is not straight three miles away.

There is no wall in the town, and there are eight gates at the four intersections. In the north, there is Wang Yao Temple Gate.

East: main hall door, east gate; South: Jimen, main entrance, wooden gate top; West: West Gate and West Burning Gate.

At the main entrance, there are Liu Dui Department (the Japanese built a towering watchtower-watchtower), police station, and some government and commercial offices.

There are many temples inside and outside the town, such as Wang Yao Temple, Laoye Temple and Chaoyang Temple outside the East Gate. Mosque in front of the main gate; A small temple at the entrance of the wooden city; Zenrinji, outside the West Gate, is just a ruin, burned by Eight-Nation Alliance. There is only a glimpse of Liang 'an Temple in the northeast corner.

There are also three ancient stone bridges on the avenue leading to the west and south.

Shops, large and small, are next to each other in the street, and plaques and signs are scattered all over the place. There are all kinds of shops that produce daily necessities, but there are some bustling scenes in the town, and the second, fourth, sixth and ninth episodes are even more lively. Many famous store names are still fresh in my mind. From narrow street to east street and west street, it is crowded in the center of the main street. Such as: Wanhe, Tianlixing, Dejuyong, Dechang, Zengshengji, Yijulong, Sanyihe and Fuhaiju; Hengyuan Hotel, Yadong Hospital and Yongyang Photo Studio in the west of Zhaijie; There is a Lanji drugstore in the back street. Yicheng Tiepu; Ximen Hengyuan Hotel cooks pots.
