Wanping international photography city: still a long way to go
Wanping city was built in 1637 and located in the southern part of Beijing. In 1937 the July 7 Incident broke out here. Late in the 20th century the Beijing government restored the original city. It is now on its way to becoming an international photography city, but still needs a lot of effort and support.
