Another independent
garden in Beihai Park, it's located by a pond.
A corridor in front of the main hall goes
around the pond, in which fish swim amidst
water weeds. The courtyard is a combination
of the solemn style of the north and exquisiteness
of the south. Emperor Qian Long wrote a poem
in praise of the place. One line reads:"The
house is like a painted boat from the south."
Thus the name of the place. |

are tranquil,an ideal spot for scholars to
write essays and poems. Emperor Qian Long
often summoned famous writers to admire ancient
works here.
