Introduction: The Dajing Pavilion was originally part of the Shanghai city wall. The Shanghai city wall was built during the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty and was demolished after the Xinhai Revolution. During the demolition process, the section of the wall that housed the Guan Yu Temple was preserved because it featured a plaque inscribed with the words “Great Thousand Victorious Realm,” written by Chen Lu, the Viceroy of Liangjiang, in the 16th year of the Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty. As a result, it came to be known as the “Dajing Pavilion.”
