Julu (simplified Chinese: 巨鹿; traditional Chinese: 鉅鹿; pinyin: Jùlù) is a county of Xingtai City, in the south of Hebei province, China. Prior to the Sui dynasty, Julu had been known as Nanyi County (南亦县; Nányì Xiàn). The name was changed and became Julu, with the Chinese for Ju being written either as either "巨" or "钜". In 1980, the name was standardized as "巨鹿". The county has a population of 370,000[when?] residing in an area of 623 km2 (241 sq mi).
