Shengjin Pagoda

Jiangxi


This rebuilt, 58m-tall Tang-dynasty pagoda can't be climbed, but is attractive, and surrounded by other recently reconstructed features (an outdoor stage, a small garden, a huge bronze bell) to create a pleasant area for families to hang out in. The pagoda, which is lit up at night, has been rebuilt several times throughout history, most recently in 1985.
