Shibing's history goes back to at least 1391, when it was an important crossing halfway on the road between Zhenyuan and Huangping. The name Shibing is based on Miao language words for the stop in the middle. Shibing was established as a county in 1444. Between 1958 and 1962 it was part of Huangping County.[1]

The total population is 170,000 as of 2021,[2] 58.53% of the population belongs to minorities, of these, 52.75% are Miao.[3]
