In the past, Zhige, like Sanbao and Luoba, was a cargo water terminal, which was prosperous for a time. The origin of Zhige has something to do with the temple of marquis Wu on the street in the ancient town: it is said that Han zhaolie and Zhuge Liang would fight here. The local leader looked at the wind and said, "the dry feather stopped.". After that, the people here set up a temple of marquis Wu at the mouth of the town to offer sacrifices to Kong Ming.
