“pavilion”的意思、由来-百科全书

pavilion

architecture

light temporary or semipermanent structure used in gardens and pleasure grounds. Although there are many variations, the basic type is a large, light, airy garden room with a high-peaked roof resembling a canopy. It was originally erected, like the modern canvas marquee, for special occasions such as fetes, garden banquets, and balls, but it became more permanent, and by the late 17th century the word was used for any garden building designed for use on special occasions.

Although many ornamental garden pavilions survive in old gardens, including those throughout East Asia, the modern use of the term—especially in the West—is generally limited to buildings on sports grounds with accommodations for changing clothes and storing equipment and to often-temporary buildings for world's fairs. Pavilion has also been used in reference to a tent, a summer residence, a dance hall, a bandstand, and an annex or structure connected to a larger building. It may also describe a projecting subdivision of a monumental building, notably the central or end bays of a Classical facade.
