Qu Yuan met the fisherman in Canglang

At Zhanggou, he met a fisherman asking for a ferry. He was quite sad. The fisherman sang a song "Canglang Song" to inspire Qu Yuan how to face it. The reality has become a historical legend. This song "Canglang Song" was included in "Chu Ci". In the middle of the Tang Dynasty, in memory of Qu Yuan, the sages of Mianyang built the Canglang Pavilion in Zhanggou. The Canglang Pavilion is located on the north side of the Tongzhou River in Zhanggou Town, next to the current Zhanggou Theater. It was once a place for religious activities.
