From todays visit:

(This thread should be in Suizhong/Huludao):

There's another tower closer to Xingcheng here: 40°30'53.59"N 120°36'46.45"E

Only the inner rammed earth part remains today, and only a few grey bricks on the ground show that this was once covered by bricks.

No.

Manzicao is located in Suizhong County.

Suizhong County is a part of Huludao City.

Huludao City is a part of Liaoning province, like Tangshan and Qinhuangdao is a part of Hebei province.

The tower is located a few km outside the city of Suizhong.

Maybe it would be more correct if the subdivision was something like:

Liaoning

Huludao

Suizong

Xingcheng

Hongluoshan should be in Huludao

Jinniudong, Shixiakou, Manzhicao and Zhuizishan should be in Suizhong.

With a bit of luck I will be able to add some Xingcheng locations later today.

Thanks so much for your input. I attempted this and I hope I got it right. Please let me know if any further changes are advised.
