Wuhou Memorial Temple (Wuhou Ci)
Over 1500 years old, Wuhou Temple is much associated with the kingdom of Shu. It is the place to commemorate Zhu Geliang (AD 181-234), Prime Minister of the kingdom. Wuhou was a top official title conferred upon Zhu Geliang after his death. Before visiting the temple, you need to know the stories of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms traces the rise and fall of the three kingdoms and vividly depicts the turbulent social conditions at that time. The rulers of the three independent kingdoms struggled for supremacy. Cao Cao and his son established the kingdom of Wei at Luoyang. He was in actual control of only the North China homeland. Two rivals soon proclaimed emperors themselves elsewhere. The kingdom of Shu was created with its capital in Chengdu. It was in the control of Sichuan and parts of the highland of south China.
