Farewell Pavilion

　　The Farewell Pavilion is built by the ??shui River in front of the Furong Tower. Its pillars bear the couplet “Famous flowers are best paired with poetic lines; cold rains once saw off guests’ boats,” written by Wang Gao, a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations during the Daoguang era of the Qing Dynasty. It is said that this pavilion was where Wang Changling bid farewell to his friend Xin Jian. The open space beside the pavilion is called the Farewell Platform. More than 1,200 years of storms have not washed away the legacy of Wang Changling.
