It is absolutely the best thing to do here.
The Wuliangye bottle-shaped building represents the comprehensive production industry and was named the “Wuliangye bottle building” at the Peng Cheng Plaza. The pond in front of the building is called “Wuliang Yao Chi” and in the pond there are five goddess statues which represent the five types of grains that are used in the brewing of Wuliangye.
The Jiu Sheng mountain in Wuliangye is the highest place in the Ten-Star Alcohol City, with an elevation of 320 meters. At the top of the mountain, there is a “Jin Shi Nv” statue which is a statue of an ancient beauty riding on a lion at the foot of the mountain. Under the “Jin Shi Nv” statue there is a liquor jar, collecting all the nature essences to brew Wuliangye. It takes about 10 mins to reach the top of the mountain and you will be able to have a panoramic view of the whole Wuliangye area.
The tenth Banchan Lama Great Master who was once a vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, used Wuliangye in the religious meetings of the goddess. During the ceremony, he smiled benevolently while holding the Wuliangye bottle high up to bless the national unity. This significant moment has been carved on the walls (Figure 2) for its significant commemoration.
Do you know the different types of grains that are used in the brewing of Wuliangye? They are wheat, rice, corn, sorghum and glutinous rice. In 1915, Mr Deng Zi Jun brought Wuliangye and travelled all the way to San Francisco to take part in the Panama Pacific International Exposition and eventually won the gold medal.
The “Chun Yang Dong” is one of the three natural liquor caves in Luzhou Laojiao, which is mentioned in a story about Lu Dongbin in one of the Chinese myths (figure 3).
