It is said that in the Warring States period
about two thousand years ago, there was a great musician Boya in Shu State. He
was good at playing lute. Once he boated down the river and went by Hanyang,
suddenly a violent storm occurred and Boya grounded the boat at the foot of
Tortoise Hill. Soon the sky cleared. Then Boya played lute for fun. A hermit
named Zhong Ziqi had a profound understanding of Boya’s music and sang high
praise for it. Therefore, they became bosom friends and made a date to meet
next year. Afterwards, Ziqi died of illness. Boya was so sad to lose his friend
that he broke his lute and never touched it since then. People were deeply
moved by their stories, so they built this building to commemorate them.
