On January 12, a group of historical figures role-players flew from Hubei to Harbin.

　　This group includes Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi of the Spring and Autumn period, Qu Yuan of the Warring States period, Wang Zhaojun, Bi Sheng, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Sanfeng, and those who ever lived in Hubei, such as Li Bai and Su Dongpo.

　　At 7:30, Tan Zhuqing, the role player of Qu Yuan in his youth, recited the verse of Lisao by Qu Yuan before boarding at the Tianhe International Airport in Wuhan, Hubei. “It is a great privilege for me to travel to Harbin to play the role of Qu Yuan, the prominent cultural figure of Zigui,” he said.

　　Zhao Yuxuan from the Yichang Municipal Mass Art Center, who dressed up like Wang Zhaojun in a red robe attracted a lot of tourists to take photos with her. As she introduced, Wang Zhaojun as one of the top four beauties in ancient China; however, few people knew that Zhaojun was originally a historical figure of Xingshan, Yichang. “I hope that more people will be aware of the historical stories of Wang Zhaojun through my portrayal.”

　　The historical celebrity group have become the ambassadors of ice and snow experience activities upon their arrival in Harbin. They will also recite poems by Qu Yuan, Li Bai and so on, and play pipa in honor of Wang Zhaojun on the Central Street.

　　The tourists are the largest plane-chartered tour group setting off from Hubei this year, including around 300 members heading for Harbin to experience their delightful ice and snow trip.

　　Liu Liu, a cultural tourism expert from Yichang, said, “Another group of ‘southern spuds’ are going to Harbin. I will share the beautiful views of Harbin through my vlogs.”
