  Yunzhou Wenbi Pagoda is situated on the summit of Huoshi Mountain, approximately 1 kilometer north of Yun County’s urban area. Constructed in 1782 during the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, the pagoda stands about 20 meters tall and consists of nine tiers. It is a solid square brick pagoda with closely stacked eaves. Above the second tier, each of the four sides features a shallow niche (without a statue) at the center. The base is made of red sandstone slabs, and the top is adorned with a bronze gourd-shaped finial, beneath which hang four bronze bells, one at each corner. A marble slab is embedded in the western wall of the first tier, inscribed with the construction inscription. The surrounding area within 15–25 meters of the pagoda’s base is undeveloped land.

  In 1983, the pagoda was designated as a county-level cultural relic protection unit by the county government, and its status was reaffirmed in 1992. It is one of Yun County’s most significant ancient structures of cultural value and a rare historical heritage site in the region.
