Zhuge Village or Zhugecun (traditional Chinese: 諸葛; simplified Chinese: 诸葛村; pinyin: Zhūgě Cūn) is a historic village located in Zhuge town (诸葛), Lanxi, Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, China.[1][2] Originally called Gaolong (高隆), the village changed its name to Zhuge during the Ming Dynasty due to the prevalence of the Zhuge surname among the villagers. The residents claim they are the descendants of the famed Shu Han chancellor Zhuge Liang of the 3rd century CE. The village was designated a national heritage site in 1996, and contains relics which are 700 years old.[3]
