Hello Kitty Discovering a Dragon-like Pagoda behind HanShan Temple

As I stroll along the edge of the pond, I discover a pagoda with an arched corridor next to it. It’s very hard to find such landscape featues and it looks like a dragon to me with the pagoda as the head and the corridor as its body.
A closer look at the roof tiles would reveal a very carefully detailed architecture. You can also see the decorations of the end-plate.
This is a three-storey monument building at another entrance of the garden. It is built on a stone platform so that it shelters the view of the garden and pond from the outside. People only notice the beautiful scenery behind after they pass through this building. This is a skill adopted in many Chinese landscape design.
From this side of the entrance, there is a monumental portal with a lot of red lanterns. See how it matches with the red ball in my hands!
