Wankui in its Chinese name could be translated as Watch Kui. Kui represents the old name of QiqiHaer which is the second largest city in Heilongjiang province. Because the terrain of Wangkui is high, people in the past are able to watch Kui. And that is the why this little county is called Wang(Watch)kui.
One of the most famous cultural icon of this county is traditional Chinese barbecue. Two thirds of restaurants in this county would be a barbecue restaurant. Big stick with fat meat is no more popular here, locals appreciate small stick with small pieces of meat.
This county has four elementary schools and four secondary schools. It also has two high schools, No.1 High school and No.2 High school.
