    Where to stay

    Neighborhood guide

    Tongshan is a district of Xuzhou in northern Jiangsu rather than a separate city, surrounding the urban core on the flat plain. It is largely agricultural and industrial, with mining in parts of the district.

    What to see

    Timed to the light

    There are no major attractions within the district itself. Xuzhou was the seat of a Han-dynasty kingdom, and the Han tombs, terracotta figures and stone reliefs in the central districts are the region's most significant heritage.
