With the unique feature of an inhabited island“three parts of water and two parts of bamboos”, the shrine covers an area of 11,500 square meters, occupied by a set of Sichuan architectural complex of Qing Dynasty. The garden landscape forms and remains the remarkable features of traditional Sichuan gardens of Qing Dynasty, such as naturalness, primitive simplicity and elegance. The houses and halls are orderly arranged with artistic spacing. The splendid inscribed horizontal tablets and antithetical couplets on the doors endow the shrine with refined and solemn atmosphere, as it was a former residence of some historical or intellectual figures. Being such an eye-feasting and a reluctant-to-leave place, the shrine is praised by home-and-abroad intellectuals, celebrities, and experts of classic gardens as “Model of Classic Sichuan Garden in China.”
