The Tingyu Belvedere (Belvedere for Listening to Rain) was a resting place for the prince's guests when they came to watch plays. Banana trees had been planted in the courtyard where it was located. As a result, Prince Kung Yixin and his guests could listen to the rain hitting the banana leaves from the pavilion, while the prince wrote a poem titled "Planting Banana Trees to Await the Rain".
