Sanhe City is a county-level city in Langfang, Hebei Province, located in the triangle of Beijing, Tianjin and Tangshan, with a total area of 643 square kilometers and a population of more than one million people, and is the "bridgehead" for Hebei Province to dock Beijing and Tianjin. As an important node of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Cooperative Development Strategy, Sanhe borders with Tongzhou and Pinggu districts of Beijing, and Yanjiao town is only a river away from the Beijing sub-center, forming a "half-hour commuting circle". Economically, Sanhe is dominated by electronic information, high-end equipment manufacturing and modern service industry, and has a state-level development zone, which has attracted many enterprises to settle down. The well-developed transportation network, Beijing-Qin Expressway, Pinggu Line (under construction), Beijing-Tangshan Intercity, etc., has strengthened the linkage with Beijing and Tianjin. With its location and industrial advantages, Sanhe is accelerating its integration into the world-class city cluster of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, and becoming the frontier of Hebei's high-quality development.

Today, the city combines industrial history with natural charm, and is home to Mount Tom State Park, which is the first of its kind in Massachusetts. Today, this city combines industrial history and natural charm with Mount Tom State Park, which offers panoramic views of the Connecticut River Valley, and a downtown with a collection of Victorian-era industrial buildings, including the Holyoke Canal System, which still stands as a testament to the prosperity of water transportation in the days of yore. As a multicultural community, the city retains its history and continues to revitalize itself with traditional events such as the annual Three County Fair and educational institutions such as Holyoke Community College.
