1. The Wild Goose Pagoda was built in Daiyuji, Jinchangfang, Chang 'an City (now southwest of Shaanxi Province) in Tang Dynasty, also known as "Ci 'en Temple Pagoda". The tower is 64 meters high, and the square, bucket arch and column forehead of the tower are all blue brick imitation wood structures. Master Xuanzang built a five-story brick tower to worship Buddha statues, Buddhist relics and Sanskrit classics brought back from India.

At first, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda was an imitation western architecture, with brick surface and soil core, which could not be climbed. There are relics on each floor, and Master Xuanzang personally presided over the construction. Later, after several generations of reconstruction and repair, it gradually evolved from the original western regions to brick-wood structures with architectural characteristics of the Central Plains, becoming pavilions and pavilions that can be boarded. This process vividly reflects the process that ancient Indian Buddhist architectural art was introduced into China and gradually China. The Wild Goose Pagoda is one of the symbols preserved in Chang 'an City in Tang Dynasty. Its stone tablets "Preface to Tang Sanzang" and "Preface to Tang Sanzang" further prove the history of Buddhism spreading on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the Silk Road. The Bayeux sutra collected by Wild Goose Pagoda is also a precious Buddhist cultural relic.
