Zigui tourist attractions

Zigui County is located in the west of Hubei Province, on both sides of Xiling Gorge of the Yangtze River, at the dam head of the Three Gorges Project. It is the hometown of Qu Yuan, a great patriotic poet, and the famous hometown of navel oranges in China.

Zigui is the hometown of Qu Yuan, a great poet in China during the Warring States Period. Located at the foot of Woniu Mountain on the north bank of the Yangtze River, surrounded by city walls, it looks like a skew gourd and has a strong classical architectural style. Therefore, it is called "Hulu City". Because the city walls are all made of stones, they are also called "stone cities". The county was established in the Han Dynasty and Guizhou in the Tang Dynasty. In the first year of the Republic of China, it was changed to Fu County, and in the third year of the Republic of China, it was changed to Zigui County, which has been in use ever since.

Legend has it that the name of Zigui County comes from Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan has a sister. Before Qu Yuan was exiled, she came back to comfort her brother. Her feelings are very touching. Later generations changed the name of the county to "Cassia" to show respect for this virtuous sister, and later evolved into the present "Zigui".
