Wu General Temple was funded and constructed by the local people in memory of General Wu Zan. After the ‘An Lushan Rebellion’ during the Tang Dynasty, General Wu Zan died defending Wuzhen, and the locals regard him as a protective deity. It is said that the name ‘Wuzhen’ was derived from his name. The temple is not a popular tourist spot and does not offer any particular scenic views for photography; a simple stroll around is sufficient.
The main gate of the temple has been renovated and appears quite new. The main hall houses the well-known statue of General Wu in the center, flanked by his book attendant, with the God of Fire and the God of Water on either side.
