Dreaming Back to the Tang Dynasty | Du Fu Thatched Cottage in Chengdu

| Du Fu Thatched Cottage in Chengdu. 'The Poet Sage' Du Fu, in the late winter of 759 AD (at the age of 47), fled to Chengdu to escape the An Lushan Rebellion. He built a thatched cottage by the Huanhua Creek and lived there for nearly 4 years. During this time, he wrote more than 240 poems, including 'A Song of the Thatched Cottage Torn by the Autumn Wind' 'Would that I had the power to build a house with thousands of rooms, to shelter all the scholars in the world, all with joyful faces.' Travel Guide: Line 4, Caotang North Road Exit B, 800 meters. Ticket price is 50 yuan. Personally, I think the annual pass for 100 yuan is really worth it! You can enter and exit unlimited times! This is the residence of Du Fu, the great poet of the Tang Dynasty. Du Fu, who was frustrated in his career, came here to settle down. During his residence, he was melancholic and had ambitions that he could not fulfill, leaving behind many eternal masterpieces. Many places in the Thatched Cottage are engraved with Du Fu's poems, which are worth taking some time to carefully appreciate. It is also very suitable for bringing children to visit and learn.
