After the Han dynasty, with the disappearance of high-rise buildings, pavilions built on high-rise buildings moved to the water among flowers and became sightseeing buildings for people to have a rest in the garden.

Most waterside pavilions protrude from the revetment and are supported on the water by columns. Most buildings are single-story, flat, square or rectangular, light in structure, open on all sides and wide in vision. On the side near the water, the permanent bench railing and arched backrest are called beauty loungers or flying chairs for people to sit on.
