Built under the guidance of the renowned Tang monk Xuanzang, it was designed to house the Buddhist scriptures and statues he brought back from India, making it a vital resource for studying ancient Chinese Buddhist culture, history and art. The pagoda’s brickwork, which imitates wooden design, exudes simplicity and elegance. It stands as a remarkable example of ancient Chinese Buddhist architecture and a testament to the spread and fusion of Buddhist culture in China. Let’s find out more about it in this video from Tang Architecture: Building Timeless Glory – an interactive digital exhibition by CGTN on architecture from the glorious era.
