Dujiangyan is a small village just northwest of Chengdu and is the home of the famed Dujiangyan Irrigation System and a plethora of Taoist sites. Today Dujiangyan is mostly a tourist attraction for tourists to come visit this amazing irrigation system that has survived the centuries.

        The irrigation project was designed by a governor called Li Bing and was built in 256BC. The project was designed to control both the flooding of the Min River and to use the extra water to irrigate the nearby farmland. This project allowed the Sichuan Basin to become an extremely fertile land and was so successful that it is still used today. Since the completion of this project flooding was controlled and the extra water is used to irrigate over 74 million acres of land.

        The Fulong Temple and the Erwang Temple (also known as the Two Kings Temple) were built in honor of Li Bing and his contributions to the area. Both temples are located in the Lidui Park.
