Construction of temples at this location began during the late Han dynasty and underwent major expansion during the Ming period. This growth over centuries reflects how the site maintained significance as a center of worship.

The palace serves as a gathering place where visitors can witness local worship practices honoring Nüwa, the mythological goddess credited with creating humanity. People come here to participate in traditional ceremonies and rituals that remain central to the spiritual life of the community.

The site is walkable with paths connecting the temple buildings, and the mountainside offers routes for those who want to explore further. Comfortable footwear is recommended, and visitors should allow time to navigate both the flat areas and any steeper terrain.
