Introduction to the Qingyan Boat: Commonly known as the Stone Boat, it is a large stone boat on the lakeside at the west end of the corridor, which means "Sea Qing He Yan". It is the only Western-style building in the Summer Palace and was formerly Yuanjing Temple in the Ming Dynasty. When Emperor Qianlong built the Qingyi Garden, the life-releasing platform was converted into a boat and renamed "Shifang".
