Introduction to Kou Gong Temple: Kou Zhun was demoted to Leizhou as a small clerk in the first year of Qianxing in the Song Dynasty (1022). He died of illness in Leizhou in the first year of Tiansheng (1023). The people of the state built temples to cherish his virtues. In 1272, the temple was converted into a courtyard. During the reconstruction in 1984, a stone statue of Kou Zhun was built in front of the courtyard, and the Shixian Temple was combined into the "Song Garden".
