China: Liu Chen, grandson of Emperor Liu Bei, Wuhou Ci (Wuhou Ancestral or Memorial Hall), Chengdu, Sichuan Province

Liu Chen (died 263), titled Prince of Beidi, was the fifth son of Liu Shan, the second ruler of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period of China and the grandson of Emperor Liu Bei. Wuhou Ci (Wuhou Ancestral or Memorial Hall) is dedicated to Zhuge Liang, hero of the classic 'The Romance of the Three Kingdoms' and his emperor, Liu Bei. Zhuge Liang (181–234) was a chancellor of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history. He is often recognised as the greatest and most accomplished strategist of his era. Chengdu, known formerly as Chengtu, is the capital of Sichuan province in Southwest China. In the early 4th century BC, the 9th Kaiming king of the ancient Shu moved his capital to the city's current location from today's nearby Pixian.
