White Pagoda of Guang'an
广安白塔
A Southern Song brick-and-stone pagoda on the bank of the Qu River; this nine-story square pagoda is entirely white and is a landmark of Guang'an.
The White Pagoda, also called the Relic Pagoda, dates from the Southern Song dynasty and stands on a hill on the bank of the Qu River, southeast of Guang'an's urban area. It is about 36 m tall and has nine square stories, with stone construction below and brick above, finished in white. It is a national-level key cultural relic protection unit. The surrounding area has been developed into White Pagoda Park, with riverside paths for strolling and views of the Qu River. Free admission; climbing the pagoda is generally not permitted. The visit takes about half an hour and pairs well with Siyuan Square.
