Who does the ancient town of Tu Shan worship?

The ancient town of Tu Shan has a long history, which was once in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Guan Yu was besieged by Cao Cao in Tu Shan and was forced to surrender to Cao Jun in desperation. After Cao Cao helped Cao Cao kill Yan Liang and Wen Chou, he spared no effort to find his sworn brother Liu Bei and continued to follow. Later generations built the Guandi Temple here in memory of him.

Guandi Temple, located in the ancient town of Tushan, was founded in 1460. Today, it has a history of 559 years and has undergone four large-scale restoration. Now it has become the largest Guandi Temple in Jiangsu Province and one of the four largest Guandi temples in China, covering an area of 22 mu. The whole Guandi Temple is not a single building, but a complex. Emperor's Hall, Parliament Hall, East-West Wing, Bell Tower, Drum Tower and other ancient buildings make it a complete temple complex. In Guandi Temple, there is a pavilion called Maji Pavilion, which is said to be the place where Guan Gong tied his horse when he stationed troops in Tushan. Horseshoe prints, horse nails, millstones and other historical sites are scattered around the exhibition hall. Therefore, it has become one of the must-see places for tourists.

Because of Guan Yu's unparalleled loyalty, even after the defeat, he still did not forget to become sworn brothers to Liu Bei. Therefore, it has caused many historical allusions, such as being in the heart of Cao Cao and being in the Han Dynasty, riding a thousand miles alone, going through five customs and beheading six generals, and so on. Since ancient times, it has been an unparalleled symbol of loyalty and is respected as a samurai saint.
