The word "Caotang" inscribed on the main entrance of Chengdu Du Fu Caotang was written by Aisinqiao Luo Yun, the 17th son of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. The History Museum of Poetry is the central building of Du Fu Caotang Memorial Hall. In the center of the Museum of Poetry and History is Du Fuxiang carved by sculptor Liu Kaiqu, and there are couplets and plaques inscribed by celebrities in past dynasties. There is a portrait of Du Fu in the shrine of the Ministry of Industry, next to which are poets Lu You and Huang Tingjian, both of whom once lived in Sichuan. On the east side of the shrine of the Ministry of Industry is the tablet pavilion of Shaoling Caotang, which symbolizes Du Fu Caotang. Shaoling was originally a place name, and the tomb of Emperor Gaozu Xuan Di was called Ling Du. Queen Xuan Di's mausoleum is called Shaoling because it is smaller than the mausoleum. Du Fu once lived here for a long time. In his poems, he once called himself Ling Du Elymus and Shaoling Yeke, so he was called Du Shaoling. Behind the shrine of the Ministry of Industry, there is a "Caotang Scenic Area" that was restored and rebuilt in modern times from 65438 to 0997 according to the description of Du Fu's poems and the pattern of Ming Dynasty, which reproduces the pastoral style of the poet's former residence and creates a strong poetic atmosphere. Du Fu's thatched cottage also has an antique and unique "thatched cottage" screen wall with red walls and bamboo inlaid with broken porcelain. In the bonsai garden, there is a "Du's Calligraphy Woodblock Museum" built in 1999, which displays more than 100 Du's calligraphy woodcuts, selected from thousands of original Du's calligraphy written by celebrities in past dynasties, and carved with nanmu, which is of great ornamental value. His poems, books, materials and techniques are also called "four musts". In 2005, the rebuilt Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda stood in the nanmu forest on the east side of the thatched cottage, restoring the style of Chengdu, a famous historical and cultural city, with Chongli Pagoda in the east and Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda in the west. Located in the "Daya Gallery", the third hall of the ancient architectural complex of Fan 'an Temple, it displays the largest painted glazed frescoes and sculptures 12 of famous poets in China, vividly showing Du Fu's life and the development history of China's classical poetry. The museum basically displays the Millennium Works of Poets and Saints, and won the best creative award in the fifth "Top Ten National Exhibitions".
