About Three Su Shrine

Red walls enclose a garden of water, mature trees, bamboo and pavilions. The setting supports both a literary memorial and a museum visit.

Look for the named family-site features, including the old well and Ink-Washing Pool, then connect them with the portraits, inscriptions and calligraphic material in the museum. The garden should be read alongside those objects: its paths and water spaces create the setting in which the writers are remembered, while the collection shows how later generations engaged with their work.

What to look for

  • Water, bamboo and red enclosure walls form the memorial garden’s distinctive setting.
  • The old well and Ink-Washing Pool are named features associated with the Su family site.
  • Calligraphy and literary-art material connect the memorial with the writers’ legacy.
