Machu King Temple in Fuxi Village, Fuchuan, Guangxi.

The Machu King Temple was first built in the 29th year of the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty (1396). The temple enshrines the statue of a civil official from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period when Ma Yin was king of the Chu Kingdom. The temple covers a total area of 1,068 square meters, with a building area of 319 square meters. It consists of a stage, a theater, and the main and auxiliary halls. It has a hard mountain roof with small green tiles and a mixed structure of beam-lift and mortise-and-tenon. The temple retains the structural features of Song Dynasty wooden architecture, such as the column head, moon-shaped beams, and camel hump. The temple's components are finely processed and decorated, with both southern and northern architectural cultural characteristics. It is the most complete, oldest, and largest wooden structure of ancient Ming and Qing architecture in the Yao area of southern China. It is also a rare folk architectural masterpiece in ancient Lingnan architecture, with important historical, artistic, and scientific value. In 2006, it was listed as the sixth batch of national key cultural relics protection units.
