3. 5.0 Ceramics Exhibition Hall (1 review)
   - A window to see the capital of ceramics in China
   Wednesday: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Speciality Museums
   I admire the person who came up with the idea of establishing the Ceramics Exhibition Hall years ago. This was a rare opportunity for me to have a guided tour in it to know how wonderful the ceramics products are and how talented the artists were. Surprised to see few visitors. Perhaps an annual city ceramics festival might help the hall better known to the communities and attract more tourists. See more..
   
4. 4.5 Nanhu Garden (29 reviews)
   - South Lake Park
   Parks
   
   
   This is a major receration and ecologicalparkland in Tangshan. It is one of the largest artifical lakes in Asia, formed in part by flooded coalmines. It is well worth a visit if you like peaceful walks and plants. Many local people go there and are friendly to foreigners. It is too big to walk around, so exploring small parts on foot, or using bicycles may be options. South Lake Park is actually several lakes, and a main road seperating the main parts. There is a hill in the south of the northern part, worth a climb for the view. See more..
   
5. 4.5 Wanda Plaza (Xinhua host) (11 reviews)
   - Fun day out.
   Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 10:00 PM Shopping Malls
   
   
   I hate shopping centres but this one was quite nice. A mix of cheap fun clothing to designer. Plus lots of entertainment. See more..
   
6. 4.5 Kailuan National Mine Park (2 reviews)
   - Didn't think I would be overly interested but thoroughly enjoyed it
   Parks
   Kailuan Mine Park was the first coal mine to be built in China. We had a english translator that took us firstly through the museum and then underground to a mining area where we could view the tools and structures they used throughout different times. We had to wear hard hats when we went underground also and caught a miners train back to ground level. A unique experience. Recommend more then the Tangshan Museum - it tells you more about the 1976 earthquake. See more..
   
7. 4.0 Tangshan Earthquake Memorial Hall (41 reviews)
   - "Of historical significance for the folks of Tangshan"
   Wednesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM History Museums
   
   
   I found this Memorial Hall to be an informative site that helped me better understand Tangshan and what the people had endured years before. When disaster strikes the character of the people is at stake and what I discovered was the people of Tangshan are strong and throughout my visit in Tangshan people would often share stories from what they personally experienced and how this disaster helped shape the Tangshan city of today. I had my passport with me so I had no issue with entrance. See more..
   
8. 4.0 The Anti-seismic Monument Square (22 reviews)
   - ok

9. 4.0 Phoenix Mountain Park (21 reviews)
   - Underground tunnels
   Wednesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Parks
   
   
   On the eastern side of the hill among among trails and rock mounds there is a large artifical log, and a kisok. Here, during normal hours you can enter a sort of bunker complex for 10 yuan. Perhaps built in the Cold War, they now contain traditional Chinese lanterns in rooms that will light up when you enter. Must have been a lot of work to build! See more..

12. 4.0 Department Store (Xinhua host) (3 reviews)
    - Good and Bad
    Shopping Malls
    
    
    The home goods place was nice. Not terrible at all. A pretty lady talked to us about Haier refrigerators and gave us water and snacks. Went up to the kids floor, the kid wanted to play with some toys. Turns out if we bought a toy, we could play with the Hot Wheels tracks on display for free. Bought a few cars and found out the tracks were broken. Went to look at computers and tried to buy one. A customer nearby said not to buy a PC there, since he bought a "new" PC the day before and found out it was previously used. Asked the store person about that, and he emphatically denied using old parts, old stuff, old anything. All good. We tried to buy a PC, but there weren't any but the display model, which was wrapped in plastic. He assured us it was good, we asked him to turn it on, and it did nothing at all until we gave up on this store and left. See more..
