Three official Pavilion

Three official Pavilion

Beijing cultural relics protection unit. Located in Liuliqu Township, Mentougou District, west of Beijing. In the old days, there were many colored lanterns hanging on the streets every year during the Lantern Festival, so it was commonly known as "Lantern Pavilion".

It was built in 1756 and rebuilt in the reign of Emperor Guangxu. The building is located on the ancient Coal Transportation Road in the west of Beijing. It is east-west, shaped like a city tower and built with bricks and stones. The cave is 10 meters deep, 3 meters wide and 3.5 meters high. The East and West glazed areas are "Daihe" and "Lishan" respectively. On the two sides of the blue stone, there are inscriptions such as "all good practices" and "all evils can't be done". There are dragon kisses at both ends of the main ridge of the tower, which are exquisite and unique in shape. The inside and outside of the ridge are decorated with colorful flowers. Under the eaves hung glass plaque, West for "three official Pavilion", East for "Wen Xing Gao Zhao". The front and back fence walls are decorated with hexagonal geometric pattern "turtle back brocade" glazed tiles. In 1992, the protection area and construction control zone were delimited. The protection area is 10 meters away from the building foundation on all sides. In 1996, when the guojielou was repaired again, the stele of Liuliqu Wenchang Dongge Ji was unearthed, which recorded the creation of guojielou in detail.

Guojielou is an important example to study the glass firing industry and the decorative art of ancient architecture in the west of Beijing.
