Originally the residence of Emperor Yongzheng before his ascension, it was converted into an imperial palace in 1725 and later into a Tibetan Buddhist temple in 1744 during Emperor Qianlong’s reign.
The temple complex features three intricately designed archways, the Yonghe Gate, the Yonghe Palace Hall, and the "Four Learning Halls" (Hall of Medicine Buddha, Mathematics Hall, Tantric Hall, and Lecture Hall), along with three exhibition rooms.
The architecture reflects the blend of Han, Manchu, Tibetan, and Mongolian styles, showcasing its grand design.
