You get to visit a few temples with several of his idols/ statues, and one particular one seems like what his room would have been-with him reading on one side and sleeping on the other. Upon entering, there's his Sabre on the left pagoda and his horse on the right. There are many statues here and quite a colorful place. You can do this along with Longmen Grottos and the White Horse Temple(temple of the horse that travelled with Tripitaka/ Xuanzang), then you can finish off the night at Lijing Gate shopping street and Luoyang Pagoda tourist site. It's a pretty place and lots of shopping around it, if you're interested. The Guanlin Temple was built by General Cao Cao, which houses Guan Yu's head, in honor of him and his amazing feats. He's not only considered the God of War but the God of Theater, Wealth, Temple Protector, and so forth. Guan Yu's good deeds and heroic demeanor eventually turned him into a God of variety and splendor in Asia. A commander once to General Liu Bei, Guan Yu was a respected individual, even by enemy Generals like Cao Cao. His real story has been lost to the novels and legends that formed around him. His name is Guan Yu, and he's awesome in Chinese history. If you know the ancient history of China, say the early 200's, or if you've heard of the Romance of Three Kingdoms, one of China's most brilliant novel trilogies, or if you've ever stepped into a temple, restaruant, bank, or any kind of building in Asia (Hong Kong, Macau, China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Korea, and Japan mostly), then you've noticed a figure somewhere holding a long spear, sometimes on a red horse, with an extremely long beard and fierce face. However, this place is still the largest temple and memorial garden dedicated to Gaunyu. Recent archeological investigations suggested that the real place of the tomb of Guan Yu’s head might be at Guan Town (關庄) in the rural area of Luoyang. His body was buried at Dangyang, Hubei Province (Dangyang Guan Mausoleum), and his head was buried here. In a final battle, Guan Yu was captured by the enemy, and was executed by capitation. For example, Hsing Tian Kong (行天宮，Guan's Temple) in Taipei is one of the most worshiped temple in Taiwan.

Emperor Guan’s temples and shrines were widely established across mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even Korea, Vietnam and Japan. In Chinese folk religion, Guan Yu is referred to as 'Emperor Guan' or “Saint of War”. Guan Yu played a significant role in the establishment of Liu Bei's state of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period (220–280 AD). One is “Kong Lin (孔林)” for Confucius (the Saint of culture and education), the other is “Guan Lin (關林)” for Guan Yu (the Saint of War). There are only two great man’s tombs named “Lin” in China. then the tomb of a Saint is called “Lin” (林，forest). In Chinese culture, for the sake of respect, the tomb of an Emperor is called “Ling” (陵，mausoleum). This temple is called Guan Lin (關林) in Chinese.
