The old version of the TV drama "My Fair Princess" was once a popular series and a nostalgic memory for a generation. It continues to be "excavated" by netizens even today.

Miaoxiang Pavilion

In the first season of "My Fair Princess," when Xiaoyanzi enters the palace for the first time, Consort Ling leads her to visit the palace courtyards, which was filmed at the Miaoxiang Pavilion in Prince Kung's Mansion.

The Miaoxiang Pavilion has a unique design, with a double-layered wooden structure in the shape of an upper circle and a lower square with a lotus-shaped flat roof. The upper level is called the Miaoxiang Pavilion, and the lower level is the Banruo An. The two-layered roof interprets the ancient cosmological theory of "Heaven is round, Earth is square" in architectural language. On the left side is the "Qiushui Shanfang," a three-room open pavilion facing the mountain and lake.
