The pagoda was erected in 1582 in Ming Dynasty. It is a seven-storey wood-and-brick structure with a height of 50 meters. The pagoda is on the southern bank of the Guanhe River, which is situated in the southern suburb of the city.
As the pagoda was located at a turning point of the Grand Canal, it was utilized as a light tower in the ancient period of the city to guide ships and boats with flashing lights from all of its levels.
The pagoda serves as a landmark now for the ancient city, Yangzhou. |
