It's rare to see an ancient wooden pagoda that has survived to this day.

Yingxian Wooden Pagoda is an ancient building with a history of thousands of years, also known as Fogong Temple Pagoda. 🏯 It has withstood the test of time and is still standing, a miracle in architectural history. 🥹 It is not only the tallest and oldest existing pure wooden building in China, but also one of the "Three Wonders of the World". 🏯 As one of the Buddhist holy places, the wooden pagoda enshrines the Buddha statue of Sakyamuni, attracting countless believers to worship. At the same time, the wooden pagoda is also one of the important places for ancient literati to write poems and paint. 👏🏻
