Where is Xiangyang? It is located in the northwest of Hubei Province, in the upper reaches of juhan water. It is a famous national historical and cultural city, with a history of more than 2,800 years, and is the main birthplace of Chu culture, Han culture and Three Kingdoms culture. It is known as "the first city in China", "Xiangyang of iron fighting", and "the place where soldiers must fight".
Jin Yong left the most precious qualities belonging to a chivalrous guest to this city, and in the film and television works, Guo Jing is the biggest hero of Xiangyang, and Guo Jing and Huang Rong and his wife sacrificed themselves for the anti-Yuan army to defend Xiangyang. In the Spring Festival of 2021, Xiangyang is out of the circle of friends in another form.

If you are a movie lover, you will find that two of the several films in the 2021 Spring Festival file were filmed in Xiangyang, namely "Hello, Li Huanying" starring Jia Ling and "Samurai Shodown" starring Chen Kun. Especially in Tangcheng, the appearance rate has continued to rise in recent years. In addition to the "Samurai Order" that is being released, there are also two popular web dramas "Shangyang Fu" and "Linglong" that are also filmed in Tangcheng.
Speaking of Tangcheng, I have to mention one person, director Chen Kaige. Some people say that Director Chen worked part-time to build a city, and in order to shoot "The Legend of the Demon Cat", he did not hesitate to build a Tang City in Xiangyang for 1.6 billion. Although the actual box office of the film was not as high as the cost of building a city, it brought fire to Xiangyang Tangcheng Film and Television City.
Since the establishment of the film project, Chen Kaige's team has participated in the early operation of the entire Tang City, including design, construction, decoration, and even a flower, grass and tree strive to be real and natural, in order to achieve the best results in the ideal, this wait is 6 years.
Chen Kaige built a calyx Xianghui Building in his own artistic conception; for the first time, he restored a Tang Dynasty tantric temple on such a large scale; followed the layout of the historical East and West Markets, wooden pavilions and houses, making Tang City the most historical Tang Dynasty architectural complex.
6 years later, Chen Kaige's "The Legend of the Demon Cat" was released, we enjoyed an extremely gorgeous Feast of Great Tang Bliss through the screen, although the reputation of the film is different, but the costume and photography of "The Legend of the Demon Cat" has always been the best feeling in recent years, and Tangcheng is undoubtedly one of the biggest props.
"Mulan", which appeared in the epidemic in 2020, was also filmed in Tangcheng, which was the first electric shock between Tangcheng and Hollywood. In addition, there are film and television works such as "Will Night", "Kyushu Muyi", "Tiansheng Long Song", "Yan Bone", "Green Hairpin Line" and so on, all of which are filmed in Tangcheng.

Before 2010, Xiangyang is not called Xiangyang, but called Xiangfan, in 2010 to highlight the cultural heritage, changed to the ancient name of Xiangyang, since then Xiangyang on the road to the tourist city to speed up the pace, even I, a foreigner, think that Xiangyang is much better than Xiangfan!
In addition to Tang City, there is also a Seoul in Xiangyang, which is also a film and television city, and the city, as its name suggests, tells the story of the Han Dynasty period, and everything is related to the Han Dynasty. Seoul's main attractions are composed of superfluous film and television shooting landscapes such as Han Palace, West Han Street, Cultural Square, and Bao'en Temple East Market, covering an area of 1.2 million square meters and a construction area of 800,000 square meters.
Seoul's most iconic film work is Jang Yi-mo's "Shadow", and the demon market of the recent hit "Samurai Shodown" was also filmed here.

See here, if you think that Xiangyang debuted by film and television IP, it is a big mistake. Xiangyang is actually a veritable cultural city, perhaps it is these excellent historical and cultural support, so that literary and art workers are more fascinated by this land, film and television works to this historical city to add a new cultural atmosphere, plus the original historical sites, one new and one old, forming two new and old cultures in this city echo each other.
Xiangyang's natural landscape is unique, since the ancient literati inkers like to visit the mountains and rivers, so the historical celebrities related to Xiangyang are not in the minority, Liu Beisan Gu Maolu asked Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountains in the ancient Longzhong is in today's Xiangyang. There is also the ancient famous pastoral poet Meng Haoran's ancient sentence "Spring sleep is not aware, everywhere smells birds" was written in Xiangyang Lumen Temple, Lumen Temple is Meng Haoran's hermitage.

Lady City
During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, when Liang Prefecture assassinated Xiangyang, former Qin Fei Pi came to attack, and Lady Han of the Prelude Mother visited the city, seeing that the defense of the northwest corner city wall was weak, so she led the maid and the women in the city to build a section of the new city obliquely here, and then this horn fruit was breached, fortunately, thanks to the newly built city wall, Fang repelled the enemy who attacked the city, because this section of the city wall was called Lady City. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the sub-city was expanded here.

【Traffic in Xiangyang】Foreign tourists can choose high-speed rail or plane to xiangyang, and Liuji Airport in Xiangyang has opened direct flights from many cities. The good news is that during the Spring Festival to March 10, the ticket from Shanghai to Xiangyang is only 99 yuan, is it more exciting to think about?
About eating, when you get to Xiangyang, you must try Xiangyang's beef noodles, Xiangyang beef noodles (beef noodles, butter noodles) is Xiangyang people's favorite breakfast, it is characterized by this spicy two hemp and three fresh, delicious taste, long aftertaste, long food. Many Xiangyang people do not eat butter noodles for three or two days, they feel tasteless in their mouths and their appetite is greatly reduced.
I remembered that the first time I ate Xiangyang beef noodles was in Shiyan Wudang Mountain, that taste is still unforgettable, and my curiosity about Xiangyang has been out of control since then.
