"One step onto the Great Shu Road, one glance into the Three Kingdoms (220-280 AD) craze." Here, classic tales come alive: Three Kingdoms heroes, the ruse of "straw boats borrowing arrows", the jingle of caravan bells, echoes along Shu Road, and Jiang Wei's (a prominent general of the Shu Han regime, 221-263 AD) troops drilling. All these elements blend seamlessly with local street life and Sichuan's traditional culture.

Taste Xi'an's roujiamo (Chinese meat sandwich), Wuhan's hot dry noodles, or Jiange's spicy skewers. Cross paths with the graceful "Da Qiao" and "Xiao Qiao" (renowned beauties of the Three Kingdoms Period), the wise "Zhuge Kongming (an accomplished strategist in China's Three Kingdoms Period)", or catch sight of the mighty warlord "Cao Cao (founder of the Wei Kingdom, 220-266 AD)" amid clashing blades.

Highlights include a 42-meter-tall war tower, a 240-meter immersive role-play game known as "Shudao Qimen", and a 360-degree rotating stage featuring stunning Three Kingdoms "spectacles" - offering a glimpse into the past.

Over 12,000 lights adorn the entire park, with shifting shadows and interlacing neon lights painting a dazzling night sky over the sleepless Three Kingdoms City.

This vibrant nightscape awakens dormant traditions in its lanes and brings heroic tales from ancient texts to life on stage. Gather in Jiange for a timeless Three Kingdoms night - and let your camera capture unforgettable memories of Shu Road!
