Giant Wild Goose Pagoda

An iconic seven-story Buddhist pagoda built in 652 AD to house sacred sutras brought back from India by the monk and scholar Xuanzang, whose epic journey inspired the classic novel 'Journey to the West.' The tower stands 64 meters tall in a peaceful temple complex that offers a calm contrast to the city's busier attractions. Climb to the upper floors for excellent views of the surrounding Da Ci'en Temple gardens and city skyline.
