    Where to stay

    Neighborhood guide

    Dengzhou is a county-level city in southwestern Henan on the plain near the Hubei border. It is an agricultural centre, and a major water diversion project taking water north to Beijing begins in this area.

    What to see

    Timed to the light

    The city is agricultural and administrative rather than a destination. The head works of the South-North Water Transfer Project and the Danjiangkou reservoir that feeds it are the region's major engineering feature, and Nanyang nearby has associations with the physician Zhang Zhongjing, a foundational figure in Chinese medicine.
