The origin of the Wuhou Memorial Temple is an interesting topic in itself. The temple is believed to have been originally constructed in the 6th century to commemorate the important historical figure, Liu Bei (161-223), the Emperor of the Kingdom of Shu during the Three Kingdoms (220-280) dynastic period. Apart from the Kingdom of Shu there were the Kingdoms of Wei (220-265) and of Wu (229-280), and Zhuge Liang (181-234), the capable military strategist appointed by Emporer Liu Bei to defend the kingdom. When Liu Bei died in 223, his son, Liu Shan (207-271) assumed power in the Kingdom of Shu, retaining General Zhuge Liang with the powers of a Regent to defend the kingdom.
