highlights

The Three Excellences Stele

The shrine’s courtyard houses six ancient stone steles, but none compare to the famed Tang Dynasty monument dedicated to Zhuge Liang. Known as the “Three Excellences Stele,” it combines the literary genius of Chancellor Pei Du, the calligraphic mastery of Liu Gongquan, and the sculptural precision of artisan Lu Jian—a rare trifecta of artistic brilliance.

Architectural Harmony

Wander through red-walled corridors, cypress-shaded courtyards, and intricately carved pavilions that blend Han Dynasty aesthetics with Sichuan’s garden traditions. The shrine complex adjoins the tranquil **Huiling Mausoleum** of Liu Bei, a rare emperor-strategist burial pairing.

Cultural Relics Collection

Discover over 50 statues of Shu Kingdom figures, including a striking gilded Zhuge Liang seated in contemplation. Temporary exhibitions often showcase Tang-era pottery soldiers and replica ancient battle formations.

Jinli Ancient Street Integration

After exploring the shrine, exit directly into Jinli Pedestrian Street—a lively recreation of Three Kingdoms-era markets, perfect for Sichuan tea tastings or picking up artisan Shu embroidery souvenirs.

Night Illumination

Return after sunset (separate ¥30 evening ticket) to see the vermilion gates and cypress groves dramatically lit, with projection-mapped storytelling about Zhuge Liang’s legendary stratagems.
