The Huangze Temple lies in the west bank of the West Jialing River in Guangyuan City, Sichuan Province, east side of Wulong Mountain, and is separated from Guangyuan City by the river.
The Huangze Temple, originally called the Wunu Temple, has another name Chuanzhu Temple. It is said that the temple was built to memorize Li Bing and Er Lang. In the Zhenguan reign of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), 
when Wu Shihuo, Wu Zetian's father, was in charge of Lizhou County, Wu Zetian, who later became the only empress in Chinese history, was born here. Then, the Chuanzhu Temple was renamed Huangze Temple. The extant Huangze Temple was repaired in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). It was built according to the physical features of the mountain, 
which is uneven and irregular. With green trees and red attics, cinnabar railings and painted pillars, it looks simple and elegant, but in fact it is out of the ordinary. The Big Buddha Building is at the highest place of the temple, while the Zetian Hall is the most low-lying. There are other structures such as the Small South Sea, the Viewing River Pavilion, the Five-Buddha Pavilion, and the Lüzu Hall, etc.
