Foshan City, Guangdong Province is a world-renowned tourist resort city, attracting tourists from all over the world. Today I recommend a cultural relic: Guan's Ancestral Hall. It is free to visit and very suitable for taking photos, checking in, and traveling on vacation. The Guan Clan Ancestral Hall in Shadun Village is an important place for the Guan family to worship their ancestors and pass on family traditions. It usually has strong local characteristics and clan culture. 1. Origin of Guan
- The surname Guan is mainly derived from:
-Ji surname: descendants of Guan Qisi, a minister of the Zhou Dynasty.
- Title of official position: The descendants of officials guarding the ancient passes (such as Hangu Pass and Tongguan) took "Guan" as their surname.
- Minority nationalities change their surnames: such as Manchu, Mongolian, etc.
- Famous counties: Longxi County, Donghai County, etc.
2. Guan’s celebrity influence
- Guan Yu (Guan Yunchang): A famous general during the Three Kingdoms period, he was later revered as the "Martial Saint". Many Guan clan ancestral halls use Guan Yu as a symbol of family glory.
