Notes :
The following is a story of the temple history told by a local resident Serdamba. The two-story temple had been occupied by an Old King Purevdorj and his wife named Amarlingui Queen. The queen was a musician with a wild temper which caused others to call her the Insane Queen. The Old King Purevdorj applied for the marriage to be dissolved three times and each time the Barren (The local administration unit) rejected his application until he abdicated in favor of his son.
