The overall building scale is magnificent, the layout is rigorous, with carving, zip, murals, calligraphy (ancient monument) "four must" drink reputation at home and abroad, known by the world as "the first temple in the south of the Yangtze River".

Cao'an Temple, Cao'an River Cao'an's story is still a household name in Shangyu. He is a filial daughter. It is passed down to the Phoenix Mountain on the west bank of the ancient Lijiang River. A fisherman named Cao went out to fish and drowned in the river. He did not see his body surface for several days. His daughter Cao's crying for 17 days and then cast the river. Five days later, my father's body was taken. Cao Yu's filial piety touched the sky, and also touched the villagers around. They were so happy to live according to Cao Yu's father and daughter, and they also built a temple on the riverside of Cao Yu's jumping river, sculptured her statue, and respected her as "filial girl". This village was changed to Cao Yu Village. This river was renamed Cao Yu River. It has been used to this day, and this day river to Cao's temple, became silent, as if it was Cao's guilt, especially magical. Now Cao'an Temple is still the base of local filial piety education, and opposite the original temple, a new filial piety square has been built, if the door is open, you can walk 30 seconds to Cao'an Temple.

It covers an area of more than 7,000 square meters, and its scale is grand, magnificent and magnificent, and is famous for many sculptures and celebrity books. It enjoys the reputation of "the first temple in the south of the Yangtze River". Not bad.

The slow pace of life, antique architectural art.

In the afternoon, I went to the riverside and the traffic was not very convenient. The attractions are not a bit old, there are few tourists, and I was like a private venue.
