History
Siping's history can be stretched to 3,000 years ago during the Shang dynasty. The Kingdom of Yan Ruins indicate that the Han Chinese People started moving into Northeast region of China during the Spring and Autumn period. Ancient ethnic tribes such as the Fuyu, the Goguryeo, the Khitans, the Jurchen, the Mongols, the Manchus, and Koreans have left behind cultural artifacts, including Hanzhou, Xinzhou, and the Yehe Tribe Cultural Artifacts.
Yehe Town in Siping is also the hometown of two empresses of the Qing dynasty, Empress Dowager Cixi and Empress Dowager Longyu.
