Huangling Temple

Huangling Temple is the oldest example of the classical Chinese architecture in the Three Gorges region, originally built in the 500 B.C.. Numerous renovations have taken place at the site, and the current structure built in the later period of the Qing Dynasty (early 17th century). The temple was built to commemorate a legendary figure in the Chinese history-Dayu, who was responsible for the water irrigation system in the area. Then the main structure here contains a statue delicated to the national hero.

Before the huge water conservatory project along here began, the region was greatly affected by heavy floods and the marks on the pillars in the hall detail the water levels in the area across the years.
