Jiaxiu building has undergone six large-scale repairs since ancient times. It is the witness of Guiyang history and the symbol of its cultural development.

Jiaxiu building was built in the 26th year of Wanli (1598) of the Ming Dynasty. It has a history of more than 400 years. During the reign of Wanli (1573-1620) of the Ming Dynasty, the governor Jiang Dong built a dike here to connect the south bank, and built a first floor to cultivate Fengshui. It is called "Jiaxiu", which means "Kejia tall and beautiful". There is a Fuyu bridge connecting the two sides.

In the first year of Tianqi (1621), it was burned and rebuilt by governor Zhu Xieyuan, who renamed it "Laifeng Pavilion". It was rebuilt many times in the Qing Dynasty. In 1689, Tian Wen, governor of the Qing Dynasty, rebuilt it and restored its original name. The existing building was rebuilt in 1909.

Jiaxiu building, surrounded by beautiful scenery, can be called Jiaxiu.

Before the building was built, Ma Tingxi, Wang Yangming's second disciple, once taught and preached in Jianqi cloud Pavilion. The building began to be built in 1597, the 25th year of Wanli period in Ming Dynasty. At that time, it was first built in Shazhong as "Fen Ao shape" and named "Ao tou Ji". Then it was built on the platform and named "Jia Xiu", which means "Ke Jia straight and beautiful". The building was destroyed and rebuilt in 1981. During the renovation, it was found that there were stone tablets embedded in the stone walls at the bottom of the pavilion, and later eight poems were embedded in the wall at the bottom. In front of Jiaxiu building, there were two iron pillars. One was cast by elotai, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, who suppressed the Miao people in Guzhou (today's Rongjiang) in the fourth year of Yongzheng (1726 A.D.) and gathered weapons. The other was cast by Baobao, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, who suppressed the uprising of Wang nangxian of Buyi Nationality in Xingyi in the second year of Jiaqing (1797 A.D.). Both pillars have inscriptions. The two iron pillars are now in the Provincial Museum.

Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Jiaxiu building has been the gathering place of literati and poets.

Jiaxiu building has three floors, three eaves and four corners. It is about 20 meters high, with stone columns supporting eaves and white carved stone railings. Fuyu bridge is called "jiuyanzhao sandbank" because of its nine holes. After liberation, a highway was built along the river to fill two holes, and now seven holes can be seen. Although the foundation and bridge have been impacted by many floods for nearly 400 years, they are still the mainstay. In front of the building, there were two iron pillars: one was that in 1732 ad, ertai suppressed the Miao people in Guzhou (today's Rongjiang) and gathered weapons, with cast iron pillars flaunting their merits; the other was in 1797 ad, when Baobao suppressed the uprising of Baoxian, king of Buyi Nationality in Xingyi, with cast iron pillars standing downstairs. At the beginning of liberation, the government repaired Jiaxiu building, demolished iron pillars and moved them to the Provincial Museum. In ten years of turmoil, the pavilion was destroyed. In 1981, it was rebuilt according to the original style, and the foundation part of the building was made of modern building materials and technology. In the process of rebuilding the pavilion, it is found that there are stone steles embedded in the stone walls at the bottom of the pavilion. After rebuilding, there are eight stone steles embedded in the wall at the bottom of the pavilion. The three characters of "Jiaxiu building" are written by Xie Shiqin during the reign of Xuantong. After ten years of turmoil, two pieces with the characters "Xiu" and "Lou" were found. According to the photos in the past, the character "a" was added and hung outside the roof of the building according to the original style.
