Early in 1015, Emperor Zhen Zong of the Song Dynasty awarded the academy hi d Majesty's own handwriting “Yuelu Academy” on a tablet.Form then on many fam ous scholars and great thinkers gave lectures here, among them were Zhangshi, Zh uxi and WangYangming, thus making a great impact on the province's culture and education.Most of the existing buildings here were constructions of the Ming and Q ing Dynasties, and the bulk of the engraved stone plates and inscribed tablets have all been kept intact, In 1956 the academy was listed as a historical site at the pro vincial level and later, in 1988 it became a historical site at the state level.The last restoration project started in 1981 and the major part was completed in 1987.

On the inner walls of the platform are two big Chinese characters “Fu” and “Shu o”, which mean “blessing” and “longevity” respectively.Legend has it that the Chara
cter “Shuo ”was written with a broom soaked in yellow mud by a Taoist master at the time Master Luodian was attending a banquet in honour of the examination offi cials and those dispels who had passed the civil exam Hence it has been regarded as having “celestial touch” The character “Fu” was written by Luodian, the master h imself.
This gate in front of us is the Main Gate, the gate was formerly built at the tim e of the Song Dynasty, and was then called “Central Gate”.The main gate underw ent both destruction and reconstruction in the course of time.The present structure was once thoroughly renovated in 1868.
The characters “Yuelu Academy” on the horizontal tablet were inscribed by Empe ror Zhen Zong of the Song Dynasty.It was presented as an award to Zhoushi, the master of the academy, when he was summoned to the emperor's presence.On b oth door posts are couplets which read “The kingdom of Chu, unique home of the talents, Th
e Academy of Yuelu, the very cradle of all ”.It was composed in the Qin g Dynasty by the master of the academy, Yuan Jiangang and his disciple Zhang Re njie.This gate was the Second Gate, It was first built in 1527 during the Ming Dynas ty.It underwent repairs and restoration many times.It was completely devastated during the Anti-Japanese War.In 1984, the gate was restored to its former state.This is the Lecture Hall, where the students had lessons here, it was first built a t the time of the Song Dynasty and was once named “Jing Yi Hall”.Now, it has a more elaborate name “The Hall of the Loyalty, Filiality Honesty and Integrity”, beca use on the inner walls of the hall are engraved four big Chinese Characters:“ loyalt y, filiality, honesty and integrity.They were handwriting by the great scholar, Zhuxi, who once lectured here.Others, such as the School Regulations, the Administration s and Way to Read were masterpieces of the masters of the academy.On the two horizontal tablets hanging on top were written:

”The doctrines taught here in the south are genuine Confucian doctrines.“
They were inscribed by the emperor Kangxi and Qianlong respectively during the Qing Dynasty.The building in front of us is the Yushu Library, ”yushu“ literally means ”imperial books“, so Yushu Library ,built in 999A.D in the early Song Dynasty, was a place t o keep imperial books.Books were continuously sent here during the succeeding dy nasties.The library was first named ”Classics Treasuring House“ in the Song Dynast y, ”Classic Venerating House“ in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, and finally ”Yushu Li brary" in the Qing Dynasty,.It had been repaired and expanded many times, and n ow it has a collection of over twenty thousand Chinese classics.This building was r ebuilt on its original site in 1986.The two small pavilions Xi Quan and Ni Lan , built during the Song and Ming Dyna sties, were restored to the right and left of the compound galleries in order to displ ay cultural relics.
