Tourism Sites

  • Chuhehanjie (楚河汉界, or Hong Gou) is a famous place in early Western Han Dynasty (西汉,or 西漢) where Liu Bang, the creator of Western Han Dynasty, fought for years with his rival, Xiang Yu (项羽). Because none of them could win after years, they decided to use the Chuhehanjie (楚河汉界) to divide China into two parts, with the eastern part to Xiang Yu and western part to Liu Bang after negotiation. Liu Bang broke this agreement later when Xiang Yu retreated from Xingyang to rescue the capital of his territory, which was attacked by Han Xin.
