A short guide about Wild Goose Pagoda

Tourabout has categorized vacation packages to Xian in the Shanxi Province of china from the world’s best tour suppliers – to visit the Wild Goose Pagoda situated in the Da Ci'en Temple, a Buddhist pagoda located in southern Xian.

Also known as the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda or Big Wild Goose Pagoda; it is one of the city's most distinctive and outstanding landmarks, and possibly the most beautiful building left in Xian today. The walls and doors are carved with vivid and exquisite figures of Buddha, reflecting the depth of the Tang Dynasty in the paintings.

It was built in 652 during the Tang Dynasty and originally had five stories, although the structure was rebuilt in 704 during the reign of Empress Wu Zetian and its exterior brick facade renovated during the Ming Dynasty. One of the pagoda's many functions was to hold sutras and figurines of the Buddha that were brought to China from India by the Buddhist translator and traveller Xuanzang.
