There are five-meter-high ticket gates in the east, west, north and south. The banners of the four gates are engraved with the words "You He in the north", "Qin Shu in the south", "Dong You" and "Fenhe River in the west" respectively. The building is solid and thick, and the structure is reasonable. It's a two-story three-eaves cross pavilion on the top of the mountain. This building is unique, tall and majestic. The ancients called it "a thousand miles away, relying on clouds to force the sun."
