Introduction to Zao Wang Palace: Zao Wang Palace was built in the 32nd year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1693). It was built to commemorate Shi Zaikuang, the magistrate of Qianyang County. It was originally named "Huaide Temple". In the eighth year of Jiaqing (1803), the Kitchen God was moved here, and it became the "Kitchen Palace". The current building was rebuilt by Mr. Yuan Shiwei in 2006. It is mainly used to worship the Kitchen God, supplemented by the exhibition of rare stones, calligraphy and paintings, and also used for tea drinking and banquets. Because the owner loves to collect strange stones, it is also called "Puzhuang".
