The national reform and opening-up situation provided Shijiazhuang with sufficient opportunities of stepping into the international economic circulation and building up the city into a modern metropolis. Shijiazhuang，with its superior geographical position(surrounding Beijing and Tianjin as well as Bohai Sea)，abundant natural resources and humane resources，has aroused extensive attention both at home and abroad. In recent years，the city's infrastructure construction is growing fast，the urban function is becoming more complete. It has formed the urban road system into three horizontals，six longitudinals，two rings and twelve radiated extensions. More and more elegant and modernized buildings have been built and risen into the sky and great changes have taken place in the urban area:high buildings，large mansions，wide streets with Minxin River winding the city like a jade belt. More than 20 parks and gardens along the river make the city even more beautiful and attractive.
