Keting, derived from Bai Xiangshan’s phrase ‘can accommodate the knees, can rest the shoulders, when it is possible, it is possible,’ signifies a place where one can stop and appreciate the scenery. The pavilion features a hexagonal shape with upturned eaves and a攒尖 roof, culminating in a design resembling an inverted vase (a makeshift creation during the 1953 restoration). During Liu’s era, it was known as ‘The Pavilion Within,’ and during Sheng’s era, it became known as ‘Keting.’ After liberation, the pavilion underwent repairs, resulting in a slightly sharper top than before. It is open to the public all year round, with full-day access.
