Located in Hangzhou
Wikipedia
The Temple of the Qian Kings, also known by its Chinese name as the Qianwang or Qian Wang Temple, is a Chinese temple in Hangzhou, China, honoring the Qian family who ruled as kings of Wuyue in the 10th-century interregnum between the Tang and Song dynasties. Owing to the general lack of plural markers in Chinese, it is frequently understood as a temple specifically honoring Qian Liu, the first of the Wuyue kings, but it officially honors his entire dynasty. The grounds include the tomb of Qian Liu as well as four of his children and are located beside the Park of Orioles Singing in the Willows. The restored temple has been reckoned among the Ten New Scenes of West Lake under the name ”Loyalty Displayed at the Qian Temple“ (钱祠表忠, Qiáncí Biǎo Zhōng).
