There are all kinds of peonies and peonies around the pavilion. When the flowers bloom, tourists are weaving. On the right is Xili Lake. The boat is leisurely and noisy. On the left are tall trees, including pine trees, camphor trees, magnolia trees and bamboo forests. Deep in the trees, there is a garden.
