History of Pagodas explains the development of pagodas in China, which originated in India and came to China with the spread of Buddhism. Ancient pagodas, such as the stocky Songyue Pagoda, the upright Woodent Pagoda in Yingxian County, the grand Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, the elegant Dingzhou Pagoda, the simple Three Pagodas in Dali and others all attract people with their unique artistic charm and deep cultural deposits.
