Xiude Temple is located in the east of Guanzhai Village, Dawei Town, Xinmi City, facing south with its back to the north.

The existing mountain gate and main hall are Qing Dynasty structures, both featuring flush-gable roofs covered with gray tiles. In front of the mountain gate stands a stele from the 16th year of the Zhiyuan era of the Yuan Dynasty (1279), known as the Wolongtai Stele, whose inscriptions record that Xiude Temple was the place where the Yellow Emperor sought enlightenment from Guangchengzi. The temple is well-preserved overall and holds significant historical and artistic value.
