Located in Sanhe city, Hebei province, Yanjiao High-tech Industrial Development Zone lies at the junction of Beijing and Tianjin, 30 kilometers from Tian'anmen Square and 25 km from Beijing Capital International Airport. Established in August 1992, the zone was approved as a provincial level industrial park in December 1999 and upgraded into a national one with the approval of the State Council in November 2010.

With a planning area of 108 square kilometers, the zone is expected to serve the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and benefit from Beijing's advantages in science, talents and other resources.

Aiming to go "from relying on Beijing to integrating with Beijing", the zone is benefiting hugely from its close proximity to the capital. It has devoted itself to setting up an innovation-driven pattern to develop high and new technology and modern service industries, with a  focus on electronic information, new energy resources, advanced materials, equipment manufacturing, biological medicine, leisure tourism, modern logistics, health care and culture creativity.

In 2017, the fiscal revenue of the zone hit eight billion yuan ($1.16 billion); its total industrial output value and fixed investments reached 63.6 billion yuan and 36.9 billion yuan respectively, turning the zone into a promising modern area.
