Introduction: Zhangfang Village Pagoda is located in Zhangfang Village, Fangshan. It was first built in the sixth year of the Tianqing era of the Liao Dynasty (1116). The pagoda is an octagonal, five-tiered, closely-eaved stone pagoda, standing 6 meters tall in total. The base of the pagoda is divided into three levels: upper, middle, and lower. The upper part features a circular stone-carved inverted lotus pedestal, while the middle and lower parts consist of two tiers of Sumeru pedestals, adorned with bas-reliefs of figures and animal motifs. The central section of the pagoda is a single-block octagonal shaft, commonly known as the "scripture pillar" because it is inscribed with Buddhist scriptures.
