The development of history

Ran Zhuang was founded in the Sui Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, Sophora japonica was planted in the streets, which was once prosperous in the Song Dynasty. It was called the Song Town in the Tang Village. Ran Zhuang is located in the southwest of Qingyuan District, which is15km away from the seat of the district government and 30km away from Baoding City.

Located 30 kilometers southwest of Baoding City, Hebei Province, it was an important battlefield of the anti-Japanese struggle in North China led by China in World War II. Here, the geographical position is superior and the transportation is convenient: there is Beijing-Guangzhou Railway in the west, Beijing-Shenzhen Expressway in the north, Baoheng Highway in the east, and Wangwang Highway passes through the territory.

Ran Zhuang Tunnel was first excavated at 1938. 1937 After the "July 7th Incident", the Japanese invaders invaded south on a large scale, which made the people in central Hebei suffer great war sufferings. In order to defend against the enemy's attack, save themselves and resist foreign aggression, people in Ran Zhuang began to dig holes in the ground and finally dug tunnels.

The underground passage in Ran Zhuang is generally 0.7 to 0.8 meters wide, about 1 to 1.5 meters high, and more than 2 meters above the ground. The tunnel is centered on Cross Street, and four main tunnels are excavated along the east, west, south and north streets, and then more than 20 branch lines extend from the main roads, directly leading to the villages outside and around the village.
