Wu Hou Temple

Wu Hou Temple
Wu Hou Temple is the major shrine to Sichuan’s ancient Shu past and the heroes that made the Shu Kingdom legendary during the Three Kingdoms period.

The temple is now divided into three major parts: the cultural relics with Zhaolie Temple, Wu Hou Temple and the Brotherhood Shrine, the park with its ponds, rock sculptures and willow trees and Brocade Street, known as Jinli, the arts, crafts and snacks street adjacent to the temple.

The Sichuan Opera at back of the temple has a nightly performance from 8pm to 10pm for 180 yuan includes tea and snacks. The opera is spendy, but the face-changing, fire-breathing, flute and lyre playing ensemble might make you forget that. If that doesn’t work, get a free massage from one of the elegantly dressed masseuses touring the audience area.
