This region used to host a Taoist temple named Xuanfu Palace, which was constructed under the mandate of Hongzhi Emperor in 1504. After its completion in 1516, the temple served as a stopping point for Ming emperors on their way to hold memorial services for their ancestors. Since Chinese emperors were often referred to as Chinese dragons, the temple and the region surrounding it later earned the name of Huilongguan (Chinese: 回龙观; lit. 'Returning Dragon Temple').[2]
