Hangzhou Yue Fei Temple,Yuefei Miao

Yue Fei Temple is situated on the southern foot of Qixia Hill. This temple was built to commemorate Yu Fei who is a famous general in Southern Song and an outstanding national hero of China. In 1961, the State Council declared it as a major national protected monument.
Facing the lake with hills behind, Yue Fei’s temple looks towering and lofty. It is made up of three parts including the tomb grounds, Loyalty Garden and Devotion Garden. Yue Fei’s statue in martial attire is located in the middle of Loyalty Garden. A plaque inscribed with "Recover Our Lost Territories" is hung. The Devotion Garden used to be dedicated to Yue Fei’s parents, wife and sons, and now serves as Yue Fei’s memorial hall. Yue Fei’s tomb situates on the left side of Loyalty Garden. The tomb is built with rocks in a round shape. Beside it lay the tomb of his son, Yue Yun. On the screen wall of the tomb grounds, four huge Chinese characters are carved: "Be Loyal to the Motherland" which is Yue Fei’s life time motto. There are stone horses, stone tigers, stone sheeps and stone figures dating from the Ming Dynasty on both sides of the path leading to the tomb.
