History of Huangze Temple
The Huangze Temple, originally called the Wunu Temple, has another name Chuanzhu Temple. It is said that the temple was built to memorize Li Bing and Er Lang. In the Zhenguan reign of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), when Wu Shihuo, Wu Zetian's father, was in charge of Lizhou County, Wu Zetian, who later became the only empress in Chinese history, was born here. Then, the Chuanzhu Temple was renamed Huangze Temple. The extant Huangze Temple was repaired in the Qing Dynasty.
