Langzhong Ancient Town

Reviewed By yichen70 - Toronto, Canada

Unlike many other artificial "ancient towns" that were built with cement in recent years, the old houses and courtyards in Langzhong are original. As a major tourist attraction in Sichuan, it has not been ruined by commercialization. You can still see local residents living their daily life there. You can even saw two schools and a kindergarten hidden among the old houses.
The waterfront boulevard was rebuilt in recent years. If you have time, walk from the tourist center northbound along the water. On the other side of Jialing river, the scenery is just magnificent.
If the weather happens to be drizzling and rainy, don't be frustrated. It would be a perfect time to wander along those narrow streets and alleys. With other tourists hidden in their hotels, you will own the quiet town to yourself, and enjoy the surreal feeling of travelling back to time.

Langzhong Examination House

Reviewed By annapavia - Italy

What I loved most is the alley with the desk for the exams, where I figured myself being at work. Also, don't miss the hall with the "cheating" instrument, like the big undervest with all the information written small on it. Sounds familiar....

Langzhong White Tower

Reviewed By ChiKan W

很多當地人都會推薦遊客去白塔看夜景。如果逛完閬中古城,從門口坐車到山上大概要幾分鐘而已,打的約十多塊錢(東、北門口坐車的話),不要被騙咯。山上人少車少,大概都要走下來,十多分鐘到有人的地方,晚上走路小心點。

Big Buddha Temple

喜欢这种有历史感的寺庙,修在一座山上,需要慢慢爬,有山有水有寺庙,虽然年久失修,缺乏维护,但就是这种破旧的感觉使得寺庙更有历史感

阆中在三国时期曾经是张飞留守7年的主城,古城的桓侯祠也就是张飞的墓所在地,这个张飞墓据这里讲解的人说尚未被发掘,相信也只是张飞身体的墓,头不在这里,历史上张飞是被杀害身首异处的。庭院中的飞字据说有张飞因关羽而死的说法!

Han Henghou Ancestral Hall

Reviewed By luftballons99

三国志でお馴染みの豪傑、張飛が最期を迎えたのがこの閬中です。彼はここを治めていた間は善政を布いて民に慕われていたようですが、義兄弟である関羽が呉に討たれると我を失い、弔い合戦の準備の為に自分の部下に無理な命令をして、結局はその部下に裏切られて寝首を掻かれるという結果を招いたとされています。
敷地内には張飛の墓があります。墓と言っても成都・武候司の劉備の墓と同じように盛土がされた丘があるのみですが、この下に張飛の遺体の一部でも実際に眠っているかも知れないと思うと、ファンとしては涙を禁じえません。
また、ここに展示されている張飛の数々の逸話を表現した銅像は我々日本人三国志ファンのイメージに合致するカッコいい出来栄えで、見応えがあります。閬中古城内のいくつかのスポットに入場出来る閬中セットチケットは120元ですが、この廟のみであれば58元の入場料です。

A long walk up Jinping Mountain offers beautiful views of Langzhong and clearly shows the city surrounded by water on three sides and Mountains on the other. There are stops along the way. Wear comfortable walking/hiking shoes.
