Pavilions
Unlike gazebos, pavilions are roofed structure with sides and are larger in size. They’re used for shelter during outdoor events, such as weddings, parties and when you have a large garden area. Pavilions are also often used for gardening by providing shade to plants or fruit trees from the heat of the sun.
They are designed to be long and rectangular. A pavilion may have open sides or recessed sides and a roof.
In pavilions, the roof is completely enclosed while a pergola’s roof is constructed out of spaced slats.
