When is a good time to see the fairy?

Xiangu Temple is open from 8:00- 17:30 (sometimes to 17:00 in advance), and you can go during this time.

Xiangu Temple in Linze County, Gansu Province is located in the middle of Hexi Corridor, at the intersection of Heihe River and Helishan Mountain, in a desert oasis in the corner of Dongliu Village, Banqiao, Linze County. This ancient Taoist temple with a long history, magnificent momentum and flourishing incense is the Xiangu Temple with a history of 2,000 years, a famous ancient temple in Hexi.

According to folklore, Xiangu was originally from Zhangye County in the Western Han Dynasty, and her father was a military attache below the county magistrate. Because she lost her job in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, she took her only daughter, Gu Xiang, to live in seclusion and turned to practice medicine at the foot of the towering mountain in Linze. The intelligent Gu Xiang devoted himself to studying medicine with his father, and used acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine to treat the poor and eliminate disasters, which won the hearts of the people and made him famous in Banqiao area. Mu, a man from the south bank of the Black River, is skilled in medicine and often goes to the north bank to seek medical treatment from He's father and daughter. Suffering from the bustling Heihe River, the traffic is inconvenient, and sometimes people fall into the water. Gu Xiang is determined to build a bridge in Heihe River to facilitate north-south traffic and benefit people on both sides of the strait. At that time, the Huns occupied the nearby Inner Mongolia prairie. In winter and spring, they drove cattle, sheep and camels to drink water in Heihe, and occasionally patients went to Ho's father and daughter for medical treatment. Father and daughter are not only the saviors of poor families in the inland of Hexi, but also the Huns worship He and his daughter very much.
