Zhuge Bagua Village Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Explore the Mystery of Zhuge Bagua Village, a Historical and Cultural Treasure of Jinhua!
🌈Hello, friends, I'm here! This time I want to share with you a super unique place—Zhuge Bagua Village! 🎉
🏡Zhuge Bagua Village is located within the territory of Lanxi City, Zhejiang Province, and is a super mysterious and down-to-earth historical and cultural ancient village! This is the largest settlement of the descendants of Zhuge Liang, and there are still more than 4,000 descendants of Zhuge Liang in the village! 👨👩👧👦
💡The entire village was designed and laid out according to the ancestral Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams by Zhuge Liang's twenty-seventh-generation descendant, Zhuge Dasheng. It's super creative! The village is centered around Zhongchi, with eight alleys radiating outwards, forming the inner Bagua, and eight small hills surrounding the village, forming the outer Bagua. This design is unique in China! 😮
🏞️Strolling through the village, you can see many ancient residences and halls from the Ming and Qing dynasties, which are very well preserved, with more than 200 sites! Although they have been through hundreds of years, the layout of the village has never changed. The architectural style of 'blue bricks, gray tiles, horse head walls, fat beams, chubby columns, and small boudoirs' really makes one feel as if they have traveled back to ancient times. 🏛️
📍The address is inside the Zhuge Bagua Village Scenic Area on the 330 National Road in Lanxi City, Jinhua, Zhejiang Province (east side), and the transportation is very convenient. The ticket price is 90 RMB per person, but if you use the temporary parking lot at Beiloutang, you can enter for free! 🚗
🏞️Recommended attractions include Zhongchi, Dagongtang, Tianyitang, Kongming's Life Exhibition, Chancellor's Ancestral Hall, and the local culture exhibition hall Qingyutang, each with its unique story and charm. 🌺
🏨If you want to stay in the village for a night, I recommend the Lanxi Mushi Homestay, where you can enjoy the beautiful view of the entire Zhongchi, and it will definitely make you linger. 🌌
🍴As for food, the Ancient Street Restaurant is a good choice. Their farmhouse sausage, tofu vegetarian buns, stir-fried wild vegetables, Zhuge small fish, and brine river shrimp are all super delicious! 😋
💖Well, that's all for this share! If you are also interested in Zhuge Bagua Village, why not go and explore it yourself? It will definitely be an eye-opening experience! 👀

✨ Zhongchi
Shaped like a Bagua, it is also the center of the village. The whole village spreads out in the shape of a Bagua around Zhongchi, which is also the liveliest place in the village~
✨ Dagu Tang
Next to Zhongchi is the memorial hall of Marquis Wu, with the words 'loyalty' and 'martial' at the entrance, great for taking photos📸

You can stroll around the ancient residences near Shangtang, walk from Tianyi Hall all the way to Dajing Hall and Yongmu Hall, and feel the fireworks of the ancient town~
🏨 Lanxi Houde Guesthouse
Staying inside the scenic area is really convenient! The prices are touching, mostly around two to three hundred.
The accommodations in the scenic area are all private houses, giving you the feeling of staying in the villagers' homes~
This guesthouse is well located right next to Zhongchi, and the owner is also a descendant of Zhuge Liang. As soon as you enter, you feel the strong scholarly atmosphere~

The taste of the farmhouse restaurants in the village is very good, I recommend the tofu wrap and chicken pot, the local farmhouse dishes are very comforting to eat😋
There are also many snacks near Shangtang Ancient Commercial Street, and you can sit by the pond, eat while basking in the sun, very cozy!
The Culinary Cruise
The World's Most Gossip-Filled Village - Zhuge Village | Autumn is in full swing

With white walls and black tiles, and houses along the flowing water
Time to take note, how to enter the scenic spot for free!!!
Tickets for Zhuge Bagua Village are 90 yuan on the day of purchase, and 85 yuan if bought in advance. In reality, it's just a village, and personally, I'm not very interested in architecture or old houses. However, I know that places like this, where the scenic spot and the residents are not completely separated, usually have a free entrance. I casually asked the restaurant owner during lunch, and sure enough!!!
Ladies, follow my route, first navigate to 'Zhuge Middle School', and then at a three-way intersection before reaching the middle school, turn right for the middle school, and turn left for the parking lot shown in picture one
After strolling around, I feel that this lunch was worth it. Honestly, if such a scenic spot charged me 90 yuan, it would feel like a bit of a rip-off, as there's not much fun inside, maybe I just don't appreciate it
Lastly, I went during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays in 2023. I was able to get in smoothly during this 8-day holiday, so I believe the supervision is even less strict on normal days. Sisters who want to visit Jinhua, come and take advantage of this
