Yuncheng, Xiezhou Guandi Temple (A September Trip through Henan and Shanxi)

📍 Munich · 👁 163 reads

September 20. In Yongji, there should also be a Wulaofeng scenic spot on Zhongtiao Mountain that could occupy half a day or a full day, but transport seems inconvenient, and more importantly, a few days ago they encountered water, facilities are under maintenance, and the scenic area is closed. Ha, luckily I made a phone call to inquire, otherwise I would have made a wasted trip today.

The buses to Yuncheng, those that don't take the highway, all pass through Xiezhou. Right by the road is the Guandi Temple.

I should visit the hometown temple of this Guan Gong, who went from a military general to a role model for the world—sage, God of Wealth, and emperor.

Red walls and green glazed tiles, ancient cypress trees dense and solemn, endless carved beams and painted rafters, countless upturned eaves and flying corners.

Xiezhou Guandi Temple, the hometown of Guan Yunchang, fills people with reverence. They earnestly pay homage to Lord Guan, and of course also seek his care and blessings for prosperous wealth.
