To mark the 1700th anniversary of Wang Xizhi, the Chinese calligraphy sage of the Jin Dynasty (265-420), the municipal government of Shengzhou in east China's Zhejiang Province has decided to build a China Calligraphy Sage Park based on the tomb of Wang Xizhi.
The 60 million yuan (US$7.25 million) China Calligraphy Sage Park covering three square kilometers will be built in Huatang Village of Shengzhou's Jinting Town, where the tomb of Wang Xizhi is located and the descendants of Wang live in.
