  • Jiaxiu Pavilion was built in the Ming Dynasty in the 26th year of Emperor Wanli's reign. An imperial inspector, Jiang Dongzhi, built the pavilion and named it Jaixiu because he believed the people in Guiyang were the most talented in world. The building is 20 meters high and three stories with a pointed top that has several carved windows and red lattices on all sides. The downstairs of the pavilion has a bridge, Floating Jade Bridge, that is located over the Hanbi pool.
     
    When people visit the pavilion, they will be amazed at all of the woodworks, calligraphy, paintings and stone engravings done by the ancient artists. The most famous is a 206 character antithetical couplet, said to be the longest in the world, that was written by a member of the Imperial Academy from Guiyang during the Qing Dynasty, Liu Yushan.
