Introduction

Qu Yuan Temple was built at the foot of Mount Yuxi along the Mi Luo River to commemorate the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan. The entire building is oriented towards the south and embodies the characteristics of ancient Jiangnan architecture. The surviving structures include the main hall and the Qu Yuan Temple Stele. The natural scenery and cultural landscapes in the area create a unique landscape, with towering ancient trees, rushing river waters, and interspersed farmland and rural houses. The roads weave between them, and the sounds of mountain songs echo through the valley. The beauty of Jiangnan's landscape and the idyllic charm of an earthly paradise can be found everywhere in this picturesque countryside.
