Because the story of Zhang Sheng and Yingying's love took place under the pagoda, it is commonly known as "Yingying Pagoda." The original Relic Pagoda in the temple was built in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It was destroyed by an earthquake in the winter of 1556 AD. The existing pagoda was rebuilt eight years after the earthquake (1564 AD), advocated by Zhang Jiayin, the governor of Puzhou. The tower is 40m high, and the bottom is 8.3m long. It is a brick pagoda with dense eaves, square inside and square outside. Yingying Pagoda is one of the four existing echo buildings in classical gardens in China. Tourists can strike stones on the west side of the pagoda to hear the crisp and sweet croaking sound of frogs. 📌Tips: There is a paid parking lot.
