If you're a fan of the classic novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms," you may feel a bit star struck when you visit the Wuhou Shrine in Chengdu, southwest China's Sichuan Province. Originally built around 1,700 years ago, it's dedicated to Zhuge Liang, a famous statesman from the Three Kingdoms (220-280) era. But it also houses the statues of Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and many other key characters from that period.
