Big Wild Goose Pagoda It is a national (Xi'an, Shaanxi) AAAAA tourist attraction and a world cultural heritage. It is the oldest and largest existing brick pagoda of the Tang Dynasty, a masterpiece of Buddhist architecture in the Tang Dynasty in China, and a famous tourist attraction in Xi'an. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda, also known as the Great Ci'en Temple Pagoda, was originally called the west yard pagoda of Ci'en Temple. It was built by Xuanzang to preserve the Buddhist scriptures brought back to Chang'an by the Tianzhu Silk Road. Built in 652 AD, the pagoda has seven floors and a total height of 64.5 meters. It is regarded as the symbol of Xi'an, the ancient capital, and is now a world cultural heritage. Today's Da Cien Temple was built in the Ming Dynasty on the basis of the original temple "West Pagoda", while the existing halls are mostly Qing Dynasty buildings. The main buildings on the central axis of the temple are the Mahavira Hall, Dharma Hall, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and Xuanzang Sanzang Temple. Among them, the Buddhist relics and the parietal bones of Master Xuanzang enshrined in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and Xuanzang Sanzang Temple are the "treasure of the Great Cien Temple".
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda was a famous tourist attraction in the Tang Dynasty. It was a pavilion style brick tower. The tower body was a square cone, and the bay was formed by the imitation wood structure, which decreased in proportion from bottom to top. There were wooden ladders in the tower to climb up. There was an arch doorway on each side of each floor, and a millennium underground palace was hidden under the tower. But until now, no one knows where the treasures brought back by Xuanzang are actually stored, which has also become a big mystery of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

Tourist Evaluation of Big Wild Goose Pagoda Scenic Spot ：
@ Sad planning : When you go to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, you must not think about the scenery or fun. We should learn about history, Xuanzang's path to Buddhist scriptures, Buddhism, architecture, culture and the royal forest. Wait, just half a day is too short. The thousand year old pagoda and the real Buddhist relics of Master Xuanzang are very exciting and shocking. The scenic spot has done a really good job in terms of tour guides. Come on, Chang'an tour guide.
@ Wet total additional : There is a large square and music fountain in front of the gate of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. There are many trees planted. In the daytime, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is magnificent, and at night, under the light, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda glows with splendor. Boarding the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, you can overlook most places in the center of Xi'an. Next to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, there is a large shopping mall with a giant LED screen on the top, which randomly shows the picture of the river during the Qingming Festival. It is very spectacular.
@ To encourage and : It should be a must see tourist attraction in Xi'an. November is the off-season, and there are few people. The whole scenic spot is very clean. The Tang style buildings are elegant and grand, and the tickets are expensive. You have to buy separate tickets to climb the tower. The tower is completely surrounded by modern architectural stairs, so you can no longer find the sense of history. It can only be regarded as climbing to look at Xi'an City. Unfortunately, the fog is too big on that day, and the visibility is not good
@ But high-end peak : Start to move towards the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Unfortunately, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is not open. Is it because it is closed or is it being repaired? I write here and wait for the musical at 8:30 or 9:00. Sure enough, the musicals here are not of the same order of magnitude as those in Pengcheng Square. Although it is not amazing, it is still good.
