Introduction to Leshou Hall: Located on the middle road of Ningshou Palace District, behind the Yangxing Hall, Emperor Qianlong prepared it as a place for reading and resting after returning to power. The Yushan map of Yu’s flood control displayed in the center of the north hall of the room is collected by the Forbidden City. The largest jade carving, the walls of the corridors outside the hall and inside the courtyard are all inlaid with "Jingshengzhai Dharma Tie" carved stones. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Empress Dowager Cixi once lived in this hall after her sixtieth birthday, using the Xinuang Pavilion as her bedroom. Now this place has been turned into a treasure museum exhibition hall.
