Built in the 49th year of the Qianlong era (1784), it has a history of over two hundred years. According to legend, the statue of the Emperor Shennong in the temple was made by villagers who picked up a piece of wood from the flowing water and then took it to the mainland to be carved by a sculptor. Inside the Kai Emperor Hall, there is a very ancient incense burner that gathers water droplets, which has been stolen multiple times but has always been returned intact.
