The entire building is supported by forty-six red lacquered columns, topped with chestnut-colored tiles, and has a solid and heavy grey-white stone base. The stone railings in front of and behind the pavilion are also carved with 62 stone lions, and there are 32 wind-horse copper bells hanging on the pavilion, ringing in the wind and leaving an unforgettable impression on visitors.
