Chengdu Du Fu Caotang Museum is located at No.37, Tsinghua Road, Qingyang District, Chengdu, Sichuan. This is the former residence of Du Fu, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty in China, when he lived in Chengdu.
Du Fu lived here for nearly four years and wrote more than 240 poems. Wei Zhuang, a poet in the late Tang Dynasty, discovered the former site of the thatched cottage and rebuilt it to preserve it. It was repaired and expanded in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Covering an area of nearly 300 mu, the thatched cottage completely preserved the architectural pattern during the renovation and expansion in the 13th year of Hongzhi in Ming Dynasty (AD 1500) and 16th year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (AD181KLOC-0/year). This is a sacred place in the history of China literature.
Du Fu Thatched Cottage
In the winter of 759 AD, Du Fu moved from Longyou (now southern Gansu Province) to Chengdu with his family to avoid the "Anshi Rebellion". In the spring of 760, with the help of friends, a small house was built by the picturesque Huanhua River in the western suburbs of Chengdu.
In the spring of 76 1 year, the hut was built and called "Chengdu Caotang". His poem "A thatched cottage in the west of Wan Li Bridge, a pool of flowers is a blue wave" (Madman) mentioned the thatched cottage in Chengdu. He has lived here for nearly four years. He was awarded the title of "Yuan Wailang of the Ministry of Supervision" and was called Du Gongbu.
In 765, Yanwu died of illness, and Du Fu had to say goodbye to his family and his family. Two years later, he lived in Jing and Hunan of the Three Gorges. After Du Fu left Chengdu, the thatched cottage was destroyed.
