The palace is located in Longquan (Dragon Spring) Village, 3 kilometers
north of the county seat of Rui-xian. The palace was originally built
as a Taoist temple in memory of Lu Dongbin, one of the eight immortals
in Chinese mythology. Then the palace was renamed after its location in
Yongle. It is renowned for its mural paintings which are considered treasures
of art in China as valuable as the frescoes of Dunhuang. |
