Info from plaque:

East Annex Hall

It was built in 1530 (the 9th year of Emperor Jiajing's reign of the Ming Dynasty). With a hanging pitch roof covered with sky blue glazed tiles, the Hall is finely decorated with Zuanzhi painted designs and motifs. It was used to house the divine tablets of such gods as the Great Brightness (the sun), the Polar Stars, Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Saturn, and other celestial stars. Note that it looks nearly identical with the West Annex. The only difference I could find is the brown round thing below the green tiling on the far left side of the building.
