Experience Lu Xun's Hometown: True Joy Lies in Filial Piety/The Best Flavor Comes from Reading

🌈Attraction Highlights: ✅Step into the Three-Flavor Study House (Sanwei Shuwu) in Lu Xun's hometown and travel back in time to a peaceful world filled with scholarly atmosphere. This place carries profound cultural heritage and historical significance as the childhood study place of Lu Xun and a spiritual home for countless scholars and writers. ✅The interior is simple and modest, with wooden desks neatly arranged, each bearing the marks of time. These desks have witnessed countless students' diligence and many writers' moments of inspiration. ✅Sitting in these spots, you can almost imagine yourself alongside Lu Xun, sharing the sunlight filtering through the window lattice, exploring the ocean of knowledge together. Standing here, you can almost hear the echoes of history and feel the timeless tranquility and elegance. ✅The surrounding bookshelves are filled with thread-bound ancient books, from "The Book of Songs" to "Records of the Grand Historian," from "Zuo Zhuan" to "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio." Each is a treasure of Chinese culture. Pull out a book and open its yellowed pages, and the distinctive woody fragrance fills your nose, drawing you into its world. Between these lines lie the wisdom of the ancients and insights into all things in the world. ✅The Three-Flavor Study House is more than just a physical space; it's a spiritual symbol. Here, I seem to understand the profound meaning of "Simple clothes bring warmth, humble food tastes sweet, and reading brings lasting pleasure." ✅This represents a pure pursuit beyond material desires, an endless thirst for knowledge and wisdom. As the ancient saying goes, "Within books are houses of gold, within books are beauties like jade." In the Three-Flavor Study House, you can find spiritual solace and experience unprecedented peace and contentment. 🎟️Ticket Information: Multi-attraction pass, WeChat official account reservation required 🕐️Opening Hours: 8:30-20:00 💗Additional Tips: ✅Address: Lu Xun's Former Residence (Southeast corner), 241 Lu Xun Middle Road, Tashan Street, Yuecheng District, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province; near Lu Xun's ancestral home. ✅Three-Flavor Study House: The private school where Lu Xun studied in his youth. You can see the "Three-Flavor Study House" plaque mentioned in Lu Xun's writings, the painting of "a plump sika deer resting under an ancient tree," 11 student desks, and Lu Xun's desk by the north wall with the character "early" carved on it. ✅Back Garden: The place where students in Lu Xun's writings "picked winter plum blossoms" and "searched for cicada shells."
