In the year 1213 theMongol armyinvaded and destroyed Baozhou, leaving it in ruins until it was reconstructed in 1227 during theYuan dynasty.The region acquired the name "Baoding" in 1275.

Bordering prefecture-level cities in the province areZhangjiakouto the north,LangfangandCangzhouto the east, and Shijiazhuang andHengshuito the south. Baoding also borders Beijing to the northeast andShanxito the west.
Elevations in Baoding's administrative area decrease from northwest to southeast. The western parts are dominated by mountains and hills that are generally more than 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) tall; this area includes parts ofLaishui,Yi,Mancheng,Shunping,Tang,andFupingCounties as well as the entirety of Laiyuan County, occupying 30.6% of the prefecture's area.[1]The highest peak isMount Waitou(Nghiêng đầu sơn), with an elevation of 2,286 metres (7,500 ft).[1]Moving southeast from this area, one encounters low-lying mountains and hills, taking up 18.9% of the prefecture's area.[1]Further to the east lies generally flat terrain of 30 to 100 metres (98 to 330 ft) elevation. Here the primary rivers are theXiaoyi River(Hiếu nghĩa hà),Fu River(Phủ hà),Bao River(Thác nước hà),Ping River(Bình hà),Juma River(Cự Sông Mã),Yishui River(Dễ thủy hà),Tang River(Đường hà),Cao River(Đường sông vận chuyển lương thực),Zhulong River(Trư long hà),Qingshui River(Nước trong hà), andSha River(Sa hà)s.[12]Baiyangdian Lake,the largest natural lake in northern China, can be found nearby.
Climate
[edit]Baoding has a continental,monsoon-influencedhumid continental climate/semi-arid climate(KöppenDwa/BSk),[13]characterised by hot, humid summers due to the East Asian monsoon, and generally cold, windy, very dry winters that reflect the influence of the vast Siberian anticyclone. Spring can bear witness to sandstorms blowing in from the Mongolian steppe, accompanied by rapidly warming, but generally dry, conditions. Autumn is similar to spring in temperature and lack of rainfall. The annual rainfall, about 60% of which falls in July and August alone, is highly variable and not reliable. In the city itself, this amount has averaged to a meagre 496.1 millimetres (19.5 in) per annum. The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from −2.7 °C (27.1 °F) in January to 27.1 °C (80.8 °F) in July, and the annual mean is 13.3 °C (55.9 °F).
