Fengdu Ghost City, Chongqing
Located on the Ming Mountain on the northern bank of the Yangtze River, Fengdu County is known as the Ghost City as well as a popular tourist attraction along the Yangtze River.
Most Chinese people believe that the dead (or ghosts) enter the netherworld. There people who did good deeds will be reincarnated while evil people will be tortured in many ways and have no chance to be reincarnated.
In the Ghost City, the tourists can see many sculptures of tortured ghosts and buildings of the netherworld, which gives a vivid description of the underworld in Chinese mythology.

Fengdu - China's GHOST CITY
We made a one-day road trip to Fengdu, about a one hour train ride form Chongqing.
Located on the Ming Mountain on the northern bank of the Yangtze River, Fengdu County is known to most Chinese as the 'Ghost City'. Having nearly two thousand years' history, the Ghost City combines the cultures of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism with the mystique of ghosts.
Visitors coming here will marvel at the artisanship of ancient craftsman, the unique styles of architecture and the culture of the ghost. Whatever your beliefs, you are constantly reminded the Good will be rewarded with good, and evil with evil. We were lucky enough to arrive during the annual Temple Fair, featuring all kinds of folk activities and performances, including a performance at the train station where we were swamped afterwards by all the performers wanting to get their photo taken with us - yeah, they don't see too many foreigners in these parts! BTW - this continued for the entire day....

Fengdu (Ghost City), China (With Facts/Figures)
Fengdu, on the banks of the Yangtze River, is where the devil lives, according to Chinese legend. They say that spirits go to heaven, and evil goes to Fengdu. It used to be a burial area with scores of temples and shrines and a small ancient town. Due to the construction of the 3 Gorges Dam, the ghostly city is underwater. However, a hill and dozens of temples remain. At the site, people can see statues and frescoes about hell. It is said that two men named Yin and Wang arrived at the place in the time of the Han Dynasty (206 BC to 220 BC). They became Taoist recluses, and it is said that they became immortals. The combination of their surnames,YinWang, means King of Hell or King of Darkness. Somehow, during the Tang Dynasty(618-907 A.D.) people started to say that the King of hell lived there.
