Zhu Ran (182-248) was a military general for Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms era of China. He was praised for his skills as a general, and took part in many important military campaigns for the Kingdom of Wu, including the Battle of Yiling and the defense of Jiangling. Zhu Ran also played a part in the capture of the mighty Shu general, Guan Yu. Before his death, he was given full command of the armies of Wu.
The Exhibition Hall of the Cultural Relics Related to Zhu Ran, also known as the Tomb of General Zhu Ran (182-249) of the Wu Kingdom (222-280) of the late Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220), lies in Yushan Township, south of the city.
With an area of 11 square km, the exhibition hall has undergone several renovations since it was first built in 1987. The main building is an architectural complex in the style of the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220).
Nowadays the areas open to the public include the Exhibition Hall of Zhu Ran's Tomb, the Exhibition Hall of Unearthed Relics, the Long Corridor decorated with the bas-reliefs of Zhu Ran's life, the Exhibition Hall of Ancient Weapons, the Exhibition Hall of the Tombs of Zhu Ran's Family, and the Bell and Drum towers. All are well designed for the convenience of visitors.
Embraced by beautiful mountains and embellished by emerald grasses, the Exhibition Hall attracts visitors with beautiful oriental cherry flowers in spring and scented osmanthus in autumn every year. It serves not only as a special museum showcasing the history and culture of the Wu Kingdom (222-280) on the middle and lower reaches of Yangtze River, but also a place of general interest and enjoyment.
