Eight immortals Pavilion

The eight immortals Pavilion is located in Handan City, Hebei Province. The eight immortals worshipped in the pavilion are Han Zhongli, tie Guai Li, Cao Guojiu, Zhang Guolao, LV Dongbin, Han Xiangzi, LAN Caihe and he Xianggu.

The eight immortals of Taoism began in the Yuan Dynasty. At first, their names were not uniform, and they were all male. It was not until Wu Yuantai's novel "a journey to the East where the eight immortals came from" was handed down in the Ming Dynasty that the eight immortals were shaped. Because the eight immortals often play in the world, punish the evil and promote the good, save the poor and solve the difficulties, the legend is widely spread among the people. The story of "Eight Immortals crossing the sea, eight immortals celebrating their birthday" is particularly popular in the world. This pavilion was built in the late Ming Dynasty by Taoists to welcome the arrival of eight immortals.
