Fu Xi Temple

Tianshui Fuxi Temple is the only such temple with the statue of Fuxi. Fuxi, one of the three emperors in ancient times, was regarded the ancestor of the Chinese. Legend has it that Fuxi married his sister Nuwa to save mankind after human beings were to face extinction after a flood. This Temple was originally set up in the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368) but collapsed in the early Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The one we see today was reestablished in the middle Ming.
