Zhang Fei’s Hometown Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Hometown of Zhang Fei
||Check-in at Zhang Fei Temple.
Zhang Fei Temple, located in Zhongyi Shop, the hometown of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei. The Temple of Marquis Zhang was rebuilt in 1991. More than fifty acres of temples are arranged in order, including the mountain gate, horse palace, main hall, banquet hall, and tomb. To the south of the Temple of Marquis, there is a 'Hometown of the Oath of the Peach Garden', a lush peach garden. In the peach garden, there is an 'Ancient Well of Zhang Fei' and a horse trough, with a stele of Emperor Zhaolie of Han and the alliance hometown, and the stele of the ancient well of Marquis Zhang.
It is said that Zhang Fei, who was defending Langzhong and eager to avenge the Eastern Wu, was assassinated by his generals Fan Jiang and Zhang Da. Fan and Zhang, who fled to the Eastern Wu, heard that the master of the Eastern Wu had changed his mind halfway, so they threw Zhang Fei's head into the Yangtze River. Later, it was salvaged and buried on Phoenix Mountain on the opposite bank of Yunyang, and the earliest Zhang Fei Temple was built. Since then, there has been a legend that Zhang Fei's 'body is buried in Langzhong, and his head is buried in Yunyang'.
It is said that the tomb of Zhang Fei in Zhongyi Shop, Zhuozhou, Hebei, took some soil from the tombs of Zhang Fei in Langzhong and Yunyang, which is also a symbol and return of the soul to the hometown!

Lingyun Market Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
A Trip to Yishui Lake
The wind is bleak and the water of Yishui is cold; during the leisure of the weekend, we embarked on an impromptu trip. We drove to Yishui Lake ourselves. In April, the scenery was quite pleasant, and by taking a ferry, we could climb the mountain to get a distant view of the entire Yishui Lake. Moreover, the mountain trails are mostly gentle slopes, which are very suitable for the elderly to travel. It would be even better to travel in May or June, when the mountains will be lush and flowers blooming. We had lunch at Taihang Shuizhen, where the local fish and chicken tasted good. It's only about a ten-minute drive from Yishui Lake to Shuizhen, but during holidays, traffic jams can make it impossible to estimate the time. Shuizhen has homestays, which are very convenient and in good condition if you want to stay overnight. The night view of Shuizhen is quite beautiful. There are various performances and snacks.
