| The Three Kingdoms Castle on the Tortoise Hill |
Located in the north of Hanyang district, to the east of the Yangtze
River, and facing the Snake Hill across the river, the Castle is a
strategic point in the Three Kingdoms Period (220-280) and a reputed
place of historical interest. Currently, tourists can pay a visit
to Lu Su¡¯s Tomb, round Dings (a kind of ancient co oking
vessel). On the 900¨Cmeter-long ridge road, there are one hundred twenty
Statues of Heroes in the Three Kingdoms Period, ¡°Three Kingdoms¡¯ Stratagem
Hall¡± and a newly constructed Chibi Battlefield Panoramic Art Gallery,
in which the over-1,800-year-ago fierce battle is revivified. The
panoramic drawing is eighteen meter high and thirty-five meter long,
which is a great masterpiece in the present world art circle. Some
entertainment projects, such as the eight hundred eighty eight meter
long cableway across the Han River, the risky and stimulating high
platform Bunji jumping and sliding cable soaring to the sky, etc.,
may provide a new flavor for the ancient castle. |
