A tourist place one to two hundred kilometers away from Yanshan Mountain

Qiantong Temple is located in Qiantong Town, Yanshan County, southeast of Cangzhou City, 25 kilometers north of Yanshan County. There are Dongdu Hall, Taishan Hall and Friendship Hall in Qiantong Temple, which record the successful eastward voyage of the Qin Dynasty alchemist Xu Fuyong with boys and girls and skilled craftsmen and their influence on the Japanese archipelago. Qiantong Town was called "Rao'anyi" during the Shang, Zhou and Warring States periods, which means "its land is rich and can provide peace of mind for people". "Historical Records: The Zhao Family" mentioned that in the sixth year of Qin Shihuang (241 BC), "Zhao General Pang attacked Qi to capture Rao'an", which refers to this place. In the Qin Dynasty, this place was called "Thousand Children's City". "The First Emperor sent Xu Fu to send thousands of boys and girls into the sea to seek Penglai, and built this city to live there, hence the name." In the fifth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (202 BC), the county was named here. "Qiantong County". In the second year of Xiping in the Northern Wei Dynasty (517 AD), Cangzhou was established here. Qiantong Town has been a prefecture and county for 841 years in history. In 209 BC, Xu Fu bravely led thousands of boys and girls and craftsmen to set sail from here on the order of Qin Shi Huang, seeking the elixir of immortality and sailing across the ocean. He successfully crossed the sea and migrated eastward, immigrating to Japan, pioneering friendly exchanges between China and Japan, and becoming the first hometown of overseas Chinese in Chinese history. Among the people, there is the "Qiantong Xinzi Festival" which originated from the Han Dynasty. That is, a grand sacrificial activity is held on March 28 of the lunar calendar, the day when Xufu Qiantong went to sea. It is held once in the Jiazi year and reincarnates every 60 years. During the festival, various folk art performances are held. In particular, boys and girls with strong bodies and bold faces and beautiful features are selected. They are dressed in ancient costumes and tied to perform on a miniature stage supported by long poles 15 or 6 meters high. They climb high and look into the distance to show Remembering and calling out the relatives who traveled eastward.
