故里与故居是相联系而有区别的两个概念。赵云籍贯,"常山真定"很明确,具体到乡里目前则无文献与文物资料证明。由于古今行政区划变迁,人们对于赵云故里形成了多种不同的看法。东垣、真定、东古城的变迁,真定、正定的由来变化以及房子临城沿革、民间传说、坟墓等,无不说明了赵云故里应依据《三国志·赵云传》"赵云,字子龙,常山真定人也"的记载,在东汉真定县(治今河北石家庄市长安区东古城)辖区内寻找,正定县城不会有赵云的故居,临城县不会是赵云的故里,故里碑不能作为确定赵云故里的依据。

Guli(native place) and Guju(former residence) are related but different. Changshan Zhending is Zhao Yun''s definite native place;however,there are no documents and natural relics to testify where his village is. Owing to the changes of administrative division of the past and present,opinions on Zhao''s na-tive place differ. Considering the changes of Dongyuan,Zhending and Donggucheng,the origin of Zhending and Zhengding,the evolution of houses,folktales and tombs,the confirmation of Zhao''s native place should be based on "Zhao Yun,styled Zilong,residence of Changshan Zhending" recorded in History of Thre e Kindoms·The Life of Zhao Y un. Zhao''s native place can be found in Zhending County of the Easter Han Dynasty (present Donggucheng,Chang''an District, Shijiazhuang,Hebei),and his former residence cannot be found in Zhengding County. Lincheng County is not Zhao''s native place for a stone tablet of native place cannot be ascertained to be his native place.
