Where is Hangu being held? Jiayuguan is there,

Hanguguan is located in Lingbao County in the west of Henan Province. From Lingbao county to the west by train, through Shaanxi province, through Tianshui and Lanzhou, you can reach Jiayuguan at the western end of the Great Wall in Wan Li.

Hanguguan is one of the earliest Xiongguan fortresses in Chinese history. Because it is locked in the valley, it is as dangerous as eggs, so it is called Hanguguan.

It used to be the ancient battlefield where war horses neighed, and it is known as "one person guards it and ten thousand people are angry".

The drums of the famous "Meet in the Valley", "Six Countries Attack Qin", "Guo Gong Defeated Rong" and "Nishihara War" are beating here.

There are well-known historical allusions, such as "purple gas comes from the east", "chickens crow and dogs steal" and "gongsun white horse", which makes it full of magical colors.

This is also the place where Laozi, an ancient thinker and philosopher in China, wrote the 5,000-word Tao Te Ching.

For thousands of years, many Taoist priests at home and abroad have come here to worship their ancestors.

Nowadays, Hangu Pass, which is a combination of ancient battlefield and Taoist holy land, has become a striking tourist hotspot.
