History: Daqing region was the hunting land of the Mongolian Dorbod tribe during the early years of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).Soviet Russia established Saertu Station during the construction of the Middle East Railway. Land reclamation in this region began in 1904 and villages were gradually developed. It was in 1959, with the discovery of the Daqing Oilfield, that Daqing City - formerly Anda City - was established.

Physical Features: The city’s terrain is flat and slopes gently downward from the northeast to the southwest. The city has vast areas of meadow and water.

Special Local Products: Sunflowers, mung beans, carrots, monkey head mushrooms and black fungi.

Local Highlights:

Petroleum may be Daqing’s most famous export, but the full-bodied Mongolian flavor of Dorbod Mongol Autonomous County is also worth tourists’ consideration.
