Environment
The Fufeng Museum enjoys a serene and elegant setting, making it an indispensable destination for domestic and international visitors seeking leisure and respite, historical exploration, cultural sightseeing, academic exchange and study tours.
The Fufeng City God Temple,which also houses the museum, was first erected in the third year of Hongwu (1370 CE) of the Ming dynasty, granting it a history of some 650 years. The entire complex is oriented along a north–south axis and is perched atop a rammed-earth terrace that rises 13 meters from south to north. Eighteen ancient structures dating from the Ming and Qing dynasties are arranged sequentially along this central axis: the Mountain Gate Hall, the Wooden Memorial Gate, and the Eight-Trigram Pavilion divide the compound into three courtyards within a traditional quadrangle layout. In form, these buildings retain the dignified characteristics of official architecture while incorporating vernacular construction techniques. Their elaborately carved beams, painted rafters, and upturned eaves convey a simple yet refined elegance. Both in the choice of construction methods and in the intricacy of their timber-frame structures, they display unique features that fully reflect the Chinese aesthetic ideal of solemnity and grace. As one of the most intact and grand ancient architectural ensembles in western Guanzhong region, the temple complex holds high scientific, historical, and artistic values.
On May 25, 2006, it was designated by the State Council as a Major National- Level Protected Historical and Cultural Site.
