There are three Ziyun pavilions in Sichuan in history. One is Ziyunge, Yang Xiong's former residence in Chengdu. This pavilion is long gone, and there are different opinions on the site. The other is the Ziyun Pavilion (the real Ziyun Pavilion) built in Youai Town, the hometown of Yang Xiong, a suburb of Pixian County. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong of Qing Dynasty, it was moved to Yang Xiong's tomb, and the pavilion no longer existed, leaving only a earthen platform.

What still exists today is the Ziyun Pavilion in Mianyang Xishan Scenic Area (this pavilion was built by Mianyang Municipal Government in 1987). In this scenic spot, there are two pavilions, one large and one small, one new and one old, which shows that Mianyang people respect literature and art, worship sages and have a mellow public sentiment.

Ziyun Old Pavilion is located on the reading platform of Yangzi Cloud, on the left side of Phoenix Mountain, and it is a flat and hard rock. At the front of the rock, there is a relief "The True Image of the Yangtze River Cloud" and a biography of Yang Xiong, which was engraved in the Song Dynasty according to the Mianyang County Chronicle of the Republic of China.
