Built in the 49th year of the Qianlong era (1784), it has a history of over 200 years. According to legend, the statue of Emperor Shennong in the temple was made from a piece of wood picked up by villagers from the water, which was then taken to the mainland to be carved by a skilled craftsman. Inside the Kai Emperor Hall, there is a very old incense burner that collects water droplets and has been stolen multiple times, but always managed to be returned in perfect condition.
