This pavilion is also called Pavilion of Merit Stele. Since being rebuilt in 1987, it has lain beside a passage about 50 m southeast of Yellow Crane Tower and 247 m southwest of White Cloud Pavilion.

It dates back to Song Dynasty. According to The Gazetteer of Yellow Crane Mountain, this pavilion stands on the tip of a precipice north of Moon-Surging Terrace. Stone inscription “Xi Shuang (Cool from the West)” can be found thereon. Qianlong Period’s Gazetteer of Jiangxia County says, “The inscription ‘Western Cool’ exists on the precipice behind Yellow Crane Tower. Censor Mr Song of Ming Era got it from a huge escarpment. The rock was too big to move. So, he copied the two characters on a stele. Although the stele became ruined over time, the original inscription remains extant.” Some Qing poet praised it in his preface to the following poem,

The escarpment boasts a deep inscription with

Only two characters “Western Cool” unscathed.

Mosses and insects eat away the vestige;

Liverworts run riot and almost cover the relic.

O these mighty characters are smaller than one chi,

But most of their strokes still remain intact.

No writer, location or date is left here.

Yet the zigzag characters show off vim and vigor.

Such calligraphy has engraved an indelible imprint

On the rock face for a millennium or two.

In the 20th Year (1815) of Qing’s Jiaqing Period, the original inscription was evened out to imitate another two characters “Yong Yue (Surging Moon)” by Huang Qinglao on the rock.

When its reconstruction began in 1987, the original inscription could not be restored and thus the pavilion was named after “Shuang Qi Xi Lai (Cool from West),” four characters in a couplet by Qing’s Fu Bingzhong. The south-facing pavilion supported by 12 columns stands in a crossed manner. It features 4 m length, 4 m width and 6.75 m height. Octagonal pyramid roof, gourd-shaped top, double eaves and quasi grey bricks are all highlights of the building. Get inside and you will find a 2.16 m high and 0.8 m wide memorial whose west and east sides are carved with exact donations of 26 units like Wuhan Iron and Steel, Wuhan Municipal Commission of Urban-Rural Development. The stele attributes its inscription to Zhu Jin while the pavilion boasts its name written by Wang Jie, then First Deputy Mayor of Wuhan Municipal People’s Government.
