Xiao Ya Jin Gong Yuan is built along the lake, perfectly integrating the remains of the ancient Three Kingdoms battlefield with modern garden art. The historical weight and natural beauty complement each other. The scenic area takes “water” as its pulse, with the shimmering Xiao Ya Lake reflecting the ancient architecture group, the lakeside line winding like a historical river, and along the shore are inscriptions, sculptures, pavilions, and towers, full of ancient charm. The core attraction “Ancient Battlefield Site” preserves rammed earth ruins and the outlines of trenches, with a stone tablet reading “Xiao Ya Jin Ancient Battlefield,” supplemented by three-dimensional sculptures that recreate the glorious scene of Sun Quan [Lord of the Three Kingdoms Wu] leading his army to decisively defeat Cao’s army. The Cultural Corridor tells the thrilling story of Zhou Yu [a famous general of Eastern Wu] and Zhang Liao [a general of the late Eastern Han Dynasty] confronting each other through relief carvings and inscribed poems, inviting visitors to stop and read. In spring, enjoy weeping willows brushing the embankment; in autumn, admire reeds swaying, and the island in the heart of the lake’s “Viewing Water Pavilion” can even be used to view the vast and misty waters, feeling the poetry of “water and sky one.” This park is not only Hefei’s urban lung, but also a spiritual landmark of the Three Kingdoms culture, allowing the smoke of history and the clear charm of nature to eternally interweave.
