Zhuozhou city in Hebei province has completed most of the repair work for its cultural relics that were damaged by the serious flooding disaster in early August.
Zhuozhou, situated approximately 70 kilometers southwest of downtown Beijing, is renowned for its rich history spanning over 2,300 years. The area is abundant with valuable historical and cultural heritage, featuring ancient bridges, traditional houses, and temples characterized by stunning wooden architecture.
Most of the relics sit on higher ground and were not affected by floodwaters, but some were damaged in various degrees, according to Hao Boyang, an official with the city's bureau of culture, radio, TV and tourism.
