Ma'anshan Zhu Ran Exhibition Hall

　　Introduction       The Zhu Ran Exhibition Hall is located in Yushan Township in the southern part of Ma'anshan City, Anhui Province, and is the tomb of Zhu Ran, a famous general of the Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period. It can be reached by taking Bus No. 10 from the square in front of Ma'anshan Railway Station.

　　     Zhu Ran’s tomb was excavated in June 1984, yielding many precious cultural relics. Some of the lacquerware artifacts filled gaps in the art history of the Three Kingdoms period. It is also the highest-ranking, largest in scale, and earliest dated tomb of the Eastern Wu dynasty to have been excavated, and was listed as one of China's top ten archaeological discoveries of the 1980s. The Three Kingdoms Zhu Ran Cultural Relics Exhibition Hall is a national key cultural relics protection unit. Located in Yushan District, southern Ma'anshan City, Anhui Province, it is just over 40 kilometers from Nanjing, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, making it very accessible.

　　      The museum was first built in 1987 and has been expanded over the years, now covering an area of 11,000 square meters. Its main structure is a group of classical-style buildings.       Currently open to the public are the Zhu Ran Tomb Chamber Exhibition Hall, the Unearthed Relics Exhibition Hall, the Zhu Ran Life Bas-Relief Corridor, the Antique Weapons Museum, the Zhu Ran Family Tomb Exhibition Hall, and the Watchtower with Bell and Drum. Supporting facilities and resting areas are also fully equipped. Lush green lawns fill the interior, while distant mountains stand beyond the grounds. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom vibrantly, and in August, the fragrance of osmanthus fills the air. It serves not only as a thematic museum showcasing the historical and cultural features of the Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period, but also as an excellent destination for exploring history, seeking tranquility, and enjoying leisure.
