This temple is dedicated to the Northern Xuantian Great Emperor, and is one of the three wonders of ancient Lingnan architecture, along with Guangzhou Chen Clan Ancestral Hall and Zhaoqing Yuet City Dragon Mother Temple. The buildings that make up the temple include Wanfu Terrace, Lingying Archway, Jinxiang Pond, Sanmen, Front Hall and Main Hall, Qingzhen Tower, etc., all of which are the essence of traditional Lingnan architecture decoration. The exhibition of Foshan martial arts is also very attractive, and the biographical materials of the two martial arts masters collected by Yip Man Hall and Wong Fei Hung Memorial Hall have become the biggest highlights of the museum, attracting many martial arts fans to visit.
