About North Temple Pagoda

The bottom floor of the tower base is made of stone, and the upper part is composed of a hexagonal Xumi base, a flat base railing and a lotus platform, with carved flower patterns; the tower body is divided layer by layer, with wind bells hanging at the corners of the eaves, and imitation wood structure brick carving techniques are used.
