Northern Palace Introduction

Wukeng, also known as Wu Keng, is located north of a bay and was once a coastal settlement. In the past, there were salt fields beside the village. However, due to sediment accumulation over the past century, the inflow of water has diminished, leading to the abandonment of the salt fields. After the completion of the Tiandun seawall in 1976, the coastline has receded over a kilometer away. Within the village, the Beijidi Temple was built during the Qing Dynasty's Guangxu period and is dedicated to Xuantian Shangdi as the guardian deity. The right shrine is dedicated to Guanyin, while the left shrine honors Enzhugong and Enzhuniang. The temple has a friendly relationship with the Longfeng Temple in Guanao.
