Step into the hometown of Xiang Yu in Suqian, and experience the life of the Western Chu overlord who dominated the world

I am Guanhai Tingtao tour+ global traveler, please follow me! (Published the 1678th travel photography article in 56 countries/regions and 1005 cities across 5 continents) Suqian is also the hometown of Xiang Yu, so when you travel here, you must not miss the hometown of King Xiang. The hometown of King Xiang scenic area is located between Wutong Alley in Sucheng, Suqian City, Jiangsu Province, the ancient Yellow River, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It is the birthplace of Xiang Yu, the leader of the peasant uprising army at the end of the Qin Dynasty, known as the 'world-shaking' Western Chu overlord. The entire scenic area is very magnificent. Approaching the scenic area, at the entrance, there is a lifelike statue of Xiang Yu riding on a leaping dark horse, as if the classic scene of the Battle of Wujiang is reenacted, very spectacular! Following the signs into the scenic area, the whole ancestral hall is built in the style of the Han Dynasty, simple and solemn. The courtyard is divided into three sections. Outside the courtyard, there is a horse trough. It is said that this trough was used by Xiang Yu to feed his dark horse, and it has been preserved to this day, which is quite unique.
