Qixin Cement Industry Museum

The most direct way to learn about a city's past and present is to go to a museum. A museum is a historical witness of urban development and a unique cultural symbol of a city. Qixin 1889 Cultural and Creative Industry Park is my country's first museum focusing on the cement industry. The museum currently has two themed pavilions, namely the "Symphony of Stone and Fire" cement pavilion and the "Light Up Tangshan" Qixin Power Plant Centennial History and Site Pavilion. In addition to the "China's first bucket of cement" that has become famous all over the world, there are more Chinese cement memories that have been preserved and passed down. You can greet the factory building in the 32nd year of Guangxu, have close contact with the equipment in the 3rd year of Xuantong, and communicate with the large-scale rotary kiln in the 10th year of the Republic of China... In 1915, Qixin Cement won the first prize in the Panama National Competition, Agricultural and Commercial Special Prize of Ministry of National Products Exhibition. In 1919, Qixin’s domestic sales of cement accounted for 92.02% of the national total, making it the largest cement factory in my country at that time. After the founding of New China, Qixin Cement has made an indelible contribution to the socialist construction. On April 22, 1954, Chairman Mao Zedong visited Qixin to inspect it in person, which was a step forward for Qixin's subsequent development.

Peiren Education Memory Hall

When the graduates of Peiren Girls High School recalled the school scene at that time, they always mentioned the tree-lined road, lilac flowers, European-style fireplaces, etc., but Yijumen was mentioned the most.

At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, with the development of Tangshan's modern industry and the expansion of the city, various schools were established one after another, and Peiren Girls' High School was a product of this period. Modern women's education in Tangshan originated from Peiren. With the popularization of the concept of girls' education, some families began to send their daughters to girls' schools for education. At that time, entering girls' schools was a manifestation of their status. At that time, Peiren Girls' High School was the most outstanding school in the world.
