Pavilion of Prince Teng — Attraction in Donghu District

As documented, Tengwang Pavilion or Pavilion of Prince Teng is one of the 3 great towers of southern China. From the vast complex area, the Pavilion looks like a 3-storey building with a corridor.

However as you proceed towards the building , it is on a pedestal which resembles an ancient wall. It is a 9 storeys building, floor by floor are several display of paintings, ancient costumes, porcelains and murals & portraits of 80 outstanding figures & scholars in Jiangxi from the Qin to Ming & Tang Dynasty on the walls and a 28mx1.52m Bluestone Brick Carving picture of Flourishing Jiangxi in Ming Dynasty.

As Prince Teng , was good at painting, he likes to paint butterflies , there is a a Picture of A 100 of butterflies & flowers (Polished Lacquer Painting) 5.4x2.0m Picture on wall displayed with some antiques tables and chairs.

A special mention on wall was written for Architect Mr Liang Sicheng on his remarkable contributions to the re-design on its main structure of Rebuilding in 1942.

Strolling along the corridors, the panoramic view of the city and bridges across Gan River is especially magnificient.

Several poets who have all witnessed the view standing upon Tengwang Pavilion left behind beautiful verses for later generations. Especially the poems handwritten by Su Shi (Su DongPo) carved onto copper plates, are prominently displayed on wall with his statue standing infront inside the hall.

Alot of stairs to climb , do requires more time to browse through all displays, but needless to say the stunning views and its unique architecture are worth...

Tengwang Pavillion (滕王阁) is one of three notable superstructures (三大名楼）located south of the Yangzhe River. It has been destroyed 28 times, and this is the 29th rebuilding.

I came here in the afternoon; it's a bit sunny, so taking a photograph of the entire pavilion isn't particularly appealing. If you come here in the evening, you'll get another chance to see this location because they will light up the whole pavilion around 18:30. When you arrive inside, you can take the elevator to the top and then stroll outside to photograph the front view and the Ganjiang River at its back. There will be plenty of old items on several floors, as well as beautifully decorated walls and ceilings.

This place also showed you the history of this pavilion and the remaining old buildings that have been destroyed.

The ticket price depends on the session: daytime ticket 50元; 8:00-18:00 nighttime ticket 100元; 18:00-22:30 not enter the pavilion, only the park around 30元 before 16:00

The Tengwang Pavilion stands as a majestic testament to ancient Chinese architecture and artistry. Its intricate design, with layers of gracefully curved eaves and vibrant colors, immediately captivates the eye. The pavilion's history is as rich as its appearance, steeped in tales of emperors, poets, and scholars.

Ascending to the top floor is an experience in itself. The panoramic view is breathtaking, offering a stunning vista of the Gan River and the surrounding cityscape. The atmosphere is refreshingly invigorating, with a gentle breeze that carries the scent of the river and the whispers of history.

Visiting the Tengwang Pavilion is like stepping back in time, a chance to appreciate the beauty of a bygone era while enjoying the tranquility of the present. It's a must-see for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Chinese culture and heritage.
