The Kishu An Forest of Literature is marked by a distinctive, low-slung wooden pavilion that overlooks the banks of the Xindian River. Originally constructed in nineteen seventeen by the Hiramatsu family, this structure once operated as a high-end restaurant serving Kanto-style cuisine to patrons who arrived to enjoy river views and cool breezes. The name Kishu An refers to the family's home region in Japan, while the second part of the name traditionally signifies a secluded hut for scholars.
