Huangdi Temple

Huangdi Temple

Huangdi temple, formerly known as Jinyun hall, was once one of the three imperial palaces of Huangdi in Xuanyuan, the site of santianzi capital. It was built in the reign of emperor Xianhe (326-334) of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and was one of the centers of ancient Chinese Taoism. The ancestral hall of the Yellow Emperor, located in the southeast and northwest, echoes the mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor in Shaanxi Province, forming a pattern of "northern mausoleum and southern mausoleum". It is the main place in southern China to worship Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of Chinese culture.

So far, this is the largest Xuanyuan Huangdi historical relics exhibition hall in China. It consists of eight parts. The first part is the foreword, which summarizes the life time and life history of the Yellow Emperor, the evaluation of great people, and displays the cultural relics and documents of the Yellow Emperor period. The second part is the origin and formation of Chinese ancestors. After a long period of separation and division, and national integration and national unity in various periods, what we usually call the Chinese nation came into being.

Many cultural scholars and experts propose to set Xuanyuan Huangdi's birthday and Shangsi festival as "Chinese Christmas", calling on all Chinese people to commemorate Xuanyuan Huangdi on March 3 of the lunar calendar.
