Longevity Hill Spots

Straw Pavilion (Cao Ting)

Built during Emperor Guangxu’s reign (1875-1908), this pavilion is a focal point in the area around the Chamber of the Pleasure of Farming. Simple but graceful, it is a beautiful structure topped with straws and thin stone slates but unfurnished by oil paintings and murals.
