Distinguishing feature
On the south bank of the Weiming Lake and on both sides of the gate of the Ciji Temple stand a couple of flagpole seats. Both are made of stone with the same structure. The upper part is in the shape of a sumeru pedestal, of which the upper cyma is decorated with leaf patterns, the suyao with inverted and upward lotus petal patterns mixed with linked-pearl patterns in the middle, and the lower fillet and fascia with cloud patterns. The lower part is cubic. On one side there is the inscription “Souvenir of Class 1934”. Between the upper and lower part is an iron hoop.
