Hebei  is a province of the People's Republic of China in the North China region. Its one-character abbreviation is "冀" , named after Ji Province, a Han Dynasty province (zhou) that included what is now southern Hebei. The name Hebei means "north of the (Yellow) River".


In 1928 Hebei was formed after the central government dissolved the province of Chih-li , which means "Directly Ruled (by the Imperial Court)".


Hebei completely surrounds Beijing and Tianjin municipalities (which also border each other). It borders Liaoning to the northeast, Inner Mongolia to the north, Shanxi to the west, Henan to the south, and Shandong to the southeast. Bohai Bay of the Yellow Sea is to the east. A small part of Hebei, an exclave disjointed from the rest of the province, is wedged between the municipalities of Beijing and Tianjin.


A common alternate name for Hebei is Yānzhào , after the state of Yan and state of Zhao that existed here during the Warring States Period of early Chinese history.
