Han Xiangzi, courtesy name Qingfu^[1] or Beizhu,^[2] is a Chinese mythological figure and one of the Eight Immortals in the Taoist pantheon. He studied Taoist magical arts under the tutelage of Lü Dongbin, another of the Eight Immortals. Han Xiangzi is often depicted carrying a dizi (Chinese flute), so he is also regarded as the patron deity of flutists.^[3] He is also believed to be the composer of the Taoist musical piece Tian Hua Yin (天花引).
