Introduction to Emperor Shun's Mausoleum: Emperor Shun's Mausoleum Temple was built in the 26th year of the Kaiyuan Period of the Tang Dynasty (738), but was later destroyed in the war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. In the early Ming Dynasty (1506), the villagers rebuilt it. However, it was destroyed again in the earthquake in the 34th year of Jiajing reign of Ming Dynasty (1555). In the 31st year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1603), Wu Yu, the magistrate of Anyi County, rebuilt it again. In the 20th year of the Jiaqing reign of the Qing Dynasty (1815), it was reduced to rubble due to a major earthquake, and only the main hall remained. The following year, under the initiative of villagers Wang Buzhou and others, the Shun Temple was rebuilt.
