Where the Emperor fishes

Where the Emperor fishes

They build this pavilion specifically so that the QianLong Emperor could have a peaceful place to fish. The story goes that the Emperor was delighted to find himself catching fish after fish after fish at this exact location. The truth says that servants hiding in the bushes released fish after fish directly into the Emperor's nets. ShouXiHu, YangZhou.
