The Marble Boat is often seen as an ironic commentary on the fact that the money used to restore the Summer Palace largely came from funds originally earmarked for building up a new imperial navy.

Tang Dynasty chancellor Wei Zheng is said to have told the Emperor: "the waters that float the boat can also swallow it", implying that the people can support the emperor but can also topple him.

In the Empress Dowager's restoration, a new two-story structure was designed incorporating elements of European architecture. Imitation paddlewheels were added to make it look like a paddle steamer.

It was first erected in 1755 during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor. The original was made from a base of stone blocks which supported a wooden superstructure done in a traditional Chinese design.

The pavilion has a sophisticated drainage system which channels rain water through four hollow pillars. The water is finally released into the lake through the mouths of four dragonheads.
