Looking Three Times at the Thatched Hut; hanging scroll, ink on silk, by Dai Jin (1368–1644)

Liu Bei's three visits to Zhuge Liang (also known in English as The Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage, The Three Visits to the Thatched Hut, The Three Visits to the Grass Hut, Three visits to a rural retreat; Chinese: 三顧草廬) refers to the event in the late Eastern Han Dynasty (c. 2nd century AD) when Liu Bei visited Zhuge Liang’s residence three times to ask him for help. The event is briefly mentioned in the Records of the Three Kingdoms and elaborated in more detail in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The Zizhi Tongjian recorded that the meeting(s) took place in 207.

It became a complementary idiom in Chinese language, a metaphor with the meaning or "sincerely and repeatedly making a request to a worthy person".

The event has been adapted into other works, such as plays and works of visual art.
