County-level city in Liaoning, People's Republic of China
Haicheng (Chinese: 海城; pinyin: Hǎichéng; lit. 'Sea City') is a county-level city in central Liaoning Province, People's Republic of China, located about 120 kilometres (75 mi) southwest of the provincial capital Shenyang. It is under the administration of Anshan City, the seat of which lies 36 kilometres (22 mi) to the northeast.
Haicheng has an area of 2,576 square kilometres (995 sq mi) and as of the 2020 census, a decreasing population of 1,067,905 inhabitants (1,232,739 in 2020).[3]
The infamous warlord General Zhang Zuolin was born in Haicheng.[4]
Haicheng earthquake of 1975[edit]
On 4 February 1975, an earthquake measuring 7.3 on the Richter Scale hit the city of Haicheng, which at the time had approximately 1 million residents. However, seismologists sent out warnings about this earthquake a day earlier and ordered evacuations. Because of this correct prediction, many lives were saved. This was the first successful earthquake prediction in history. Further aiding the prediction, cats and other animals are also said to have acted strangely in the days leading up to the earthquake. However there are some questions as to the validity and accuracy of these reports.
Administrative divisions[edit]
Haicheng has four subdistricts and 23 towns:[5]
