Congtai stands in Congtai Park in central Handan. Tradition holds it was the terrace from which King Wuling of Zhao watched military drills and dances in the Warring States period, and it is the emblem of Handan as the old Zhao capital. The buildings on top were rebuilt from the Qing onward, and the terrace overlooks the park lake and the city.
