Handan: the hometown of idiom and allusions

The site is located on an alluvial terrace near the modern town of Cishan in Wu'an County, Hebei Province, and has evidence of barley, rice, and millet farming as well as domesticated pigs, dogs, and chickens. Cishan represents one of the oldest sites in the world to have evidence for domesticated dogs and pigs. The millet was recovered from 80 hoards, some of which were two meters in height.

The Handan Dream one of the literary masterpieces written by Chinese dramatist Tang Xianzu in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), is adapted from Shen Jiji's romance story A Tale within the Pillow. And what’s more, the idiom Living in a fool's paradise derived from this story. It was about a scholar who went to the capital for the civil exam and was enlightened by an Immortal. Lu Sheng , the protagonist, is a down-and-out scholar who meets with Lu Dongbin, an immortal on a mission to convert a man into the world of the ever living, at a small inn in the city of Handan. Upon hearing Lu Sheng's complaint about his wretched life, Lv Dongbin lends him a porcelain pillow to sleep on. In his dream, Lu Sheng experience 50 years of vicissitudes of life as a high official, only to wake up to the stark reality that the yellow millet the innkeeper has been cooking for him is not yet done. The drama captures the seamy side of officialdom in the feudal society.

There are over 500 Chinese idioms and allusionsare derived from Handan, including the following typical ones: Riding and shooting in Hu's garbs 胡服骑射), Living in a fool's paradise, Returning the jade intact to the state of Zhao ( 完璧归赵), Carrying rod to ask for punishment ( 负荆请罪), Imitating another without success and losing what used to be one's own ability (邯郸学步), Volunteering one’s service (máo suì zì jiàn 毛遂自荐), Relieving the besieged by besieging the base of the besiegers (围魏救赵), No one picks up and pockets anything lost on the road (路不拾遗), Embracing a woman on his breast, one has no indecent feeling (坐怀不乱), Worth a couple of towns together ( 价值连城), When the snipe and the clam grapple, it is the fisherman who stands to benefit ( 鹬蚌相争, 渔翁得利), Burning one's own way to retreat and being determined to fight to the end (破釜沉舟), The proverbial Lord Ye who claimed to be fond of dragons was in fact mortally afraid of them (叶公好龙).

Tai Chi is definitely part of the life in Handan. Early morning walks are rewarded with high quality Yang-style Tai Chi (杨式太极) being performed all over the place. Each morning on one of Handan's main squares, large groups of Tai Chi practitioners gather to study with a variety of teachers, and the quality is really good. The original home of the Yang Family is actually just outside Handan near a walled village called Guangfu (广府), which is an hour's bus ride from Handan. It has the potential to be quite a nice area. They are doing it up at the moment, and it will obviously be a tourist attraction in the future.
