Exploring the Legendary Three Kingdoms Site - Chengdu Wuhou Shrine

🏰 Exploring the Legendary Three Kingdoms Site - Chengdu Wuhou Shrine 🏰 📍 Location: Chengdu, Sichuan, a tranquil corner echoing with history. Wuhou Shrine, covering an area of 37,000 square meters with a building area of 9,200 square meters, is not only a national AAAA-level scenic spot but also the resting place of the heroic souls of the Three Kingdoms, a sacred place where the ruler and his ministers are worshipped together. 🚇 Travel Tip: Take the urban dragon - Line 3 or Line 5, get off at Gaoshengqiao Station (Exit A), and after a leisurely 10-minute walk, you will arrive at this place where history and modernity blend. 🗺️ Tour Route Overview: From the Tang Stele to the Ming Stele, through the Second Gate, visit the Hall of Liu Bei, worship at the Hall of Zhang Fei, stroll through the Corridor of Generals, pass by the Stele of the Memorial to the Throne, feel the wisdom and loyalty in the Corridor of Civil Officials, tour the Hall of Guan Yu, and finally, in the ancient and solemn Hall of Zhuge Liang, explore the wisdom that transcends time and space. 📍 Must-Visit Spots: 1️⃣ Han Zhaolie Temple: The grand temple occupying the central position in Wuhou Shrine, where the soul of Liu Bei rests. The design of the descending stairs cleverly highlights the hierarchy and respect between the ruler and his ministers. 2️⃣ Corridor of Civil and Military Officials: The 28 statues in front of the Hall of Liu Bei, accompanied by the full text of the Memorial to the Throne, seem to whisper the glory of the Three Kingdoms and the heroic ambitions. Every moment of pause is a deep conversation with history. 3️⃣ Hall of Zhuge Liang: With its green bricks and gray tiles, the charm of traditional temples, the echoes of the bell tower and drum tower, and the wisdom of the Hall of Kongming, it forms a captivating historical picture. 4️⃣ Temple of the Three Righteousness: In 1998, the statues of Liu, Guan, and Zhang were moved from Tidu Street to Wuhou Shrine. Their vivid images, dressed in simple monochrome clothes, are full of strength, recreating the deep brotherhood of the Peach Garden Oath. 5️⃣ Peach Garden: Next to the Temple of the Three Righteousness is the Peach Garden, which has been praised for thousands of years. The stories there are not just tales but also symbols of the loyalty and righteousness of the Chinese nation. 6️⃣ Huiling: The joint tomb of Liu Bei and his wife, which has stood the test of 1,700 years, remains intact, witnessing the vicissitudes of history. 7️⃣ Red Wall Path: This touch of red wall is the most gentle scenery of Wuhou Shrine. On the bluestone road, the red wall silently guards, leading to the sleeping king, and has also become an excellent spot for taking photos. 📝 Experience history, feel the culture, every brick and stone, every piece of history, is waiting for you here. Let's walk into Wuhou Shrine together and explore the legendary stories of the Three Kingdoms.
