The Harrison International Peace Hospital is located in Hengshui.
 This comprehensive teaching and research hospital was named after Dr. Tillson Harrison, a martyr to the Chinese revolution.
 Dr. Harrison, a Canadian, died in 1947 while transporting medical equipment and supplies.
 Some of this equipment is on display in an exhibition room in the hospital.

The hospital uses both traditional Chinese medicine and modern western diagnostic and therapeutic technology.

The city is renowned as the centre for inside painting, mainly of small snuff bottles.
Zhang Rucai was born in Hebei Province and since 1972, he started to learn the art of inside painting.
In April 1996, he was conferred the title Master of Chinese Folk Arts & Crafts by UNESCO.
The city has a fascinating museum and exhibition of the art of the inside painter - many complex paintings done on the inside of small snuff bottles as well as special larger pieces of glassware.

There is a Buddhist Temple on the outskirts of the city which is well worth a visit, as is the bridge in the old part of the city - one of the few remnants of the old town.
