About Fan Min Que
A stone pillar-gate (que) from the tomb of Fan Min, dated to 205 AD in the Eastern Han dynasty, standing about 3 km south of Lushan county town with his memorial stele and other carvings. The que was broken up in the late Qing and reassembled in 1957, partly from original Han stones, using Gao Yi Que as its model. The stele beside it stands on a carved stone tortoise and records Fan Min's career in clerical script.
