Prince Zhu Gang, the third son of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang who founded the Ming Dynasty, ordered to build this temple to commemorate his mother Empress Ma. The construction started in 1383 and was completed in 1391. Unfortunately, the main building of this temple excluding the Hall of Great Mercy was burnt down in 1864 due a fire.
