Tí Cì Cloudd Hall
Yunge Pavilion is located in Dingxing County. According to "Dingxing County Chronicles," it was originally named Dabeige, and its exact establishment date is unknown. It was named after a bronze statue of the Great Compassion Buddha in the pavilion. It was destroyed in war. In the 10th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1306), the monk Debao rebuilt the pavilion on the original site. During the Ming Wanli era, Li Jinchuan repaired it, and it was renamed Ciyungge, as Buddhism values kindness, and kindness is like a cloud. Both the Ming Jiajing and Qing Kangxi periods have seen repairs to the pavilion. The existing architecture is still in its original Yuan Dynasty form. Ciyungge was originally a group of buildings, with a total of three sections in a boat-shaped layout. Currently, only the middle Ciyungge section remains, with the front and back sections destroyed.
