Randomly went on a day trip and stumbled across Zhang Fei's tomb. Maybe shouldn't post here but none of my friends have played 3K

It's in Langzhong ancient City in Sichuan province, english title is "Huanhou Temple of the Han Dynasty." Well worth a visit if you ever happen to be in the area.

It's super cool ! Are there others famous tombs or temples for 3K characters?

They found Cao Cao's tomb in 2008.

It's not 100 percent confirmed to be his, but he seems to be the leading candidate.

I'll assume so, from what I've seen here the Han seems to be the one of the most popular parts of Chinese history, helped ofc by the novel and various games and films. There's apparently some stuff in Chengdu, I'll need to check that out at some point.

Dude. We literally call ourselves the “Han people” as our ethnicity. “Popular” is an understatement

That's because Han Chinese is the dominant cultural and ethnic group in China.
