Tomb of Zhou Yu

The Tomb of Zhou Yu is located in Lucheng Town, Lujiang County, Hefei City, Anhui Province. The tomb was established in the fifteenth year of the Jian’an period of the Eastern Han Dynasty (210 AD). The tomb covers an area of about 5 acres, with a height of approximately 8 feet in the northern part, having a mound without a tablet, and is built on flat ground. It is constructed with small patterned Han Dynasty bricks measuring 3x6x12, and the tomb door faces east.


Surrounding the tomb are stone-carved railings, and adjacent to it stands a wooden hexagonal ‘Tan Xiao Pavilion’. After thousands of years, the tomb has collapsed, the pavilion has fallen, and the stone railings have been completely destroyed. The tomb is open to visitors all year round from 09:00 to 17:00, with closures for maintenance on the 8th, 18th, and 28th of each month.
