People at that time believed that this was the blessing of the Dragon King, and they donated money to build the Dragon King Pavilion and other garden buildings to express their gratitude to the Dragon King. The spring of Pearl Spring gushes out from the cracks in the rocks. It is named Pearl Spring because it looks like a string of pearls.
