Stone Pagoda Forest
Last updated 2026-11-12 — Introduction to the Pan Mountain Stone Pagoda Forest
The Stone Pagoda Forest is a collection of monks’ tomb pagodas, located about half a li in front of the ruins of the ancient Zhongpan Temple. There are over 20 standing and collapsed stone pagodas in total, forming a rare and remarkable ancient site. These monk bone pagodas were all carved from granite, typically built from three large stone slabs, and are quite small in size. The central section of the pagodas bears inscriptions of the monks’ names. The pagodas come in square, hexagonal, or drum-like shapes. Some have eaves, others do not; some are solid, while others are hollow. Diverse in form and arranged at varying heights, they present a truly spectacular sight.
