忠贤祠（莲峰书院）
The Temple of Loyalty and Virtue （Lotus Peak Academy）
“忠贤祠”祀文天祥与张鲁庵而建。南宋末代丞相文天祥勤王抗元至此，后被俘死忠；潮阳名士张鲁庵义不仕元。建于明万历甲午年（公元1594年），清道光四年（公元1842年）辟为“莲峰书院”，后几经修建，仍保存明清古建筑型貌。
The Temple of Loyalty and Virtue （Lotus Peak Academy） The temple of loyalty and virtue was built in 1594 in memory of two great men in Song dynasty. One is Wen Tianxiang, the last prime minister of South Song and a model of loyalty; the other is Zhang Luan, a celebrity in Chaoyang and a model of virtue. In 1824 the temple was expanded as Lotus Peak Academy, and became one of the four largest academies in Chaoyang. Although it has been rebuilt and repaired numerously, it still preserves the unique architectural style of the Ming and Qing dynasty. |
