The literati, poets and businessmen who traveled along Hebei had to disembark and land here. Because emperor Guan was also regarded as the God of wealth in ancient times, most of the merchants in the past went to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessing and wealth. At that time, Taoists in the temple built a large mat shed in front of the mountain gate to sell tea for passers-by.

Huangmu ancient Ferry: in the 35th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, the flood broke out in Tongzhou canal, which broke the bank and washed all kinds of precious Royal timber accumulated by huangmu factory in the north of Tongzhou city into the canal. Up to now, several ancient huangmu still sank at the bottom of the river, so it is named "huangmu ancient ferry". In addition, it is also a famous "shipwreck graveyard" on the canal. In the 13th year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty, the Tongzhou Canal overflowed, the river turned, the current was fast, forming a whirlpool, and the boat was easily out of control, so it got its name. It is understood that dozens of sunken ships have been discovered here.
