Xue Zhuang Jade Emperor Temple is located in Xue Zhuang Village, Zezhou County, Jincheng City, Shanxi Province. The main hall of the temple features a three-bay, hanging-roof structure built on a raised platform over one meter high, with a front terrace. The other halls are symmetrically arranged along the east-west axis and have a complete overall structure. The most valuable elements are the Qing Dynasty murals on the north, east, and west walls of the main hall. These depict vivid and delicately painted scenes of thunderstorms, dragons and phoenixes, human figures, peonies, cats, magpies, pheasants, plum blossoms, distant mountains, and nearby water.
