Xīngshān

Xīngshān lies in a mountain valley by the Xiāng Stream, north of the Yangtze gorges. It is traditionally celebrated as the home of Wáng Zhāojūn, the Hàn court woman sent to marry the Xiongnu ruler. A shrine known as Zhāojūn’s temple was rebuilt in 1415 under the Míng, preserving her memory beside the stream.
