Du Fu's Thatched Cottage (Chinese: 杜甫草堂; pinyin: Dù Fǔ Cǎo Táng) is a 24-acre (97,000 m) park and museum in honour of the Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu at the western outskirts of Chengdu, adjacent to the Huanhua Xi, (Flower Rinsing Creek). In 1961 the Chinese government established Du Fu Cao Tang as a National Heritage site.
