Graffiti artwork featuring Guan Yu, a well-known Chinese historical figure, on a wall in Taiyuan, North China’s Shanxi province, April 29, 2015. The artist, You Yang, 26, said he wants to spread Chinese culture, such as historical figures, in new ways to appeal to the younger generation. Guan Yu was a prominent general in the Three Kingdoms Period (220-280), but later he was deified and is still worshipped by many Chinese people today. (Photo: China News Service/Wu Junjie)
