Wan Pavilion (simplified Chinese: 万楼; traditional Chinese: 萬樓; pinyin: Wàn Lóu) is a Chinese pavilion located in Yuhu District of Changsha, Hunan, China.
Wan Pavilion was originally built in 1615 by magistrate Bao Hongkui (包鸿逵) and named by Li Tengfang, a senior politician in the Ming dynasty (1368–1644),[1] but because of war and natural disasters has been rebuilt numerous times since then. The present version was completed in 2017.[2]
