Giant Wild Goose Pagoda

The Giant Wild Goose Pagoda (Dayan Ta), is a Buddhist pagoda built in 652 AD during the Tang Dynasty



Emperor Qin Shihuang had Ying as his surname and Zheng as his given name. In 221 B.C., when he unified the whole country, named himself Shihuang Di and carried on the hereditary system.
One of the pagoda's functions was to hold sutras and figurines of the Buddha that were brought to China from India by Xuanzang, a famous Chinese Buddhist monk, scholar, traveler, and translator. Xuanzang is a prominent Buddhist figure mostly known for his seventeen year overland trip to India and back, which is recorded in detail in his autobiography and a biography, and which provided the inspiration for the epic novel “Journey to the West”.
