Wenshu Hall is celebrated for its exquisite features, including intricately carved lattice windows and partition doors that mark a transition in classical Chinese architectural style.
The interior is adorned with large-scale murals, executed in the early Liao Dynasty style and believed to have been created by imperial court painters. The murals retain the artistic legacy of the Tang Dynasty (618–907), with smooth, vivid lines and detailed imagery.
