Fufeng County

Fufeng County is located in the Zhang River basin in east Baoji City. During the Western Han dynasty (206 BCE-9 CE), this area was the fiefdom of the official known as the You Fufeng, so the county was named after the title. Fufeng has a long history. Its bronze age Zhouyuan archaeological site is said to have been originally excavated during the Eastern Han dynasty (25-220 CE), as the site of the ancient capital of the Western Zhou dynasty (1046-771 BCE). At Fufeng, you will also find the Famen Temple and its precious ancient relics. Today, Famen Temple is a sacred Buddhist site of worldwide fame.
