Shennong Hall, located in Baishixianling, Jiangkou Township, Anren County, Chenzhou City, at an altitude of more than 1200 meters, was built to commemorate the ancestor of Chinese humanities, Yan Emperor Shennong. This temple has been handed down for hundreds of years, with charming and lingering scenery. In 2005, the special film "Discover China, Chenzhou" produced by CCTV Overseas Programming Center introduced Shennong Hall in detail.

Shennong Hall, which has existed in China since ancient times, is a place where people worship Yan Emperor Shennong. It is the main venue for holding the Anren Spring Equinox Drug Festival and sacrificing Shennong.
In 2000, in order to promote Shennong culture, a new Shennong Hall was built in Fenggang Mountain, southeast of the county town, with an area of 120,000 square meters and a height of 20.8 meters, costing more than 10 million yuan. The whole building was built in an antique style and there was a 7-meter-high statue of Emperor Yan (designed by Mr. Zhou Guozhen, a famous sculptor of Anren nationality). In March 2004, Anren County Government held the Chinese Anren Spring Equinox Drug Festival and the inauguration ceremony of Shennong Hall. Since then, Shennong Hall in Anren County had a new place.

In 2010, the Design Institute of Tsinghua Garden in Shenzhen was entrusted with the overall planning of Shennong Hall. The scenic spots in the planning included ecology, Shennong drug culture, tourism, leisure, commercial residence, vegetarian diets, free clinic, Jushilin, Buddhist education, TCM college, traditional Chinese medicine, life maintenance, elderly care, maintenance, charity and virtue association and other functions into an integrated tourism and recreation area, which was the key project of core development of Anren.

The project covered an area of 130,928 square meters, the total planned building area was 21,640 square meters, and the planned building area was 11,809 square meters. This planning layout combined with the local natural ecological environment and reflected the brilliant pattern of Shennong Cultural Hall with the style of Royal Garden. The whole planning area formed a landscape belt of root-seeking, ancestor-worship, recreation and Buddhism tourism.
