Ba Wang Temple

This is where Xiang Yu committed suicide after his defeat 😿 Later, people built the Ba Wang Temple here to commemorate this hero 🏠 The life of the Hegemon-King of Western Chu was truly magnificent, but this hero's life was short, ending at just 31 years old. What a pity! 😮‍💨 "With strength to uproot mountains and spirit to dominate the world," it's said that Xiang Yu possessed supernatural strength from a young age and could lift a thousand-jin cauldron. Since ancient and modern measurement standards differ, we can't determine the exact weight, but it was certainly something no ordinary person could achieve. 👍 He overthrew the tyranny of the Later Qin dynasty alongside his uncle Xiang Liang, and was beloved by the common people. When passing through Xi Ji's hometown, he happened upon her "martial arts marriage contest." Legend has it that whoever could lift the object in front of her house would marry her. Hundreds tried and failed, but when Xiang Yu attempted it, he succeeded, and Xi Ji followed him from then on. 😄 🚩Ba Wang Temple Attraction Guide 1️⃣Tomb Path - contains Xiang Yu's cenotaph 2️⃣Wujiang Pavilion - ⚠️deteriorated from age, now a dangerous structure 3️⃣Beheading Stone - the place where he committed suicide 4️⃣Thirty-One Bell Pavilion - ring the bell 31 times to commemorate Xiang Yu, matching his age 5️⃣Stele Pavilion - contains hundreds of calligraphy steles about Xiang Yu, created by scholars from various dynasties 6️⃣Temple Fair - held annually on the third day of the third lunar month, featuring dragon lantern dances, lion dances, opera performances, and land boat racing
