The 5th excavation of the Bairen Town, an important city during the Warring State Period (475-221 B.C.) is underway in Hebei. The main road runs north-south with rutting marks, highlighting the prosperity of the city at that time.
Covering an area of four million square meters, the town was the second largest city of Zhao.
