Tangshan ( Chinese : 唐山 ; pinyin : Tángshān ) is a largely industrial prefecture-level city in northeastern Hebei province, China . It has become known for the 1976 Tangshan earthquake which measured 7.8 on the Richter scale and killed at least 255,000 residents. The city has since been rebuilt and has become a tourist attraction.
The city of Tangshan is approximately 149 kilometers, 92 miles or 80 nautical miles east by south east of the country's capital city of Beijing. It takes roughly 2 hours by road to get from Tangshan to Beijing.
Tangshan's prefecture population was 7,577,289 at the 2010 census, with 3,187,171 in the built-up ( or metro ) area made of the 6 urban core districts.
