The Little Wild Goose Pagoda was built in 707 AD (between Jing and the Year of the Loong), located in Jianfu Temple in the Tang Dynasty, to store the treasures brought back by the eminent monks in the Tang Dynasty. Little Wild Goose Pagoda is a square brick building with dense eaves. When it was first built, it was fifteen stories high, about 46 meters high, and the side length of the tower foundation was 1 1 meter. The eaves of the tower are covered by layers, and one door is built in the north and one in the south. The tower retracts layer by layer from bottom to top, forming a beautiful and comfortable outer contour line; The doorframe of the tower is made of bluestone, and the lintel is engraved with lines, providing a picture of harmony between man and nature and a creeping weed pattern. The sculpture is extremely exquisite, reflecting the artistic style of the early Tang Dynasty. The interior of the tower is hollow, covered with wooden floors, and a wooden ladder spirals up to the top of the tower. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the tower was damaged and tilted to some extent due to many earthquakes.
