Yingwang Pagoda

Category: Tourist Attractions 👁 100 views
The only remaining pagoda in ancient Yazhou. Built in the first year of the Xianfeng era of the Qing Dynasty (1851 AD), Yingwang Pagoda is a brick structure with seven stories, approximately 15 meters tall, in an octagonal straight-well style. The inner diameter of the first floor is about 3 meters, and the interior is not accessible to visitors. In recent years, due to geological changes, the pagoda has noticeably tilted westward, and its painted patterns have faded, but its structure and masonry remain intact, having withstood multiple typhoons of over 12 intensity levels that have struck Sanya.
