Wanxiangshan Park
      Guide:

      The Lingjiu Temple Pagodas are located on Wanxiang Mountain in Lishui city. There are four of them, numbered from south to north as No. 1 to No. 4, all with similar external appearance and structure. Built during the Southern Song Dynasty, these pagodas retain features of traditional "stupa" architecture. The spires of Pagodas No. 1, 2, and 4 are damaged, while Pagoda No. 3 is relatively intact, standing 4.2 meters tall in total with a spire height of 2.0 meters. The entire pagoda consists of three parts: base, body, and spire. The base is hexagonal and built on a Sumeru pedestal; the body is oval-shaped and hollow, featuring carvings of lions, lotuses, Buddhist flowers, Buddha statues, and guardian deities.

      The top of the pagoda’s spire features a hexagonal eave, curved in shape, with layers above including an inverted bowl, a precious gem, a floral ornament, a finial column (five tiers in total), and a finial umbrella.

      Originally situated on Lingjiu Mountain, 10 kilometers east of Lishui city, they were relocated to Qianxishan at the outskirts of Yunhe County in 1959, and then moved to their current location in 1980.

     :

      Located in the southwestern corner of the urban area and nestled by the river, the park exudes delicate charm. Since the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, structures such as Wanxiang Tower, Chongfu Temple, Yilanting Pavilion, Yanyulou Pavilion, Daguanting Pavilion, Qinhuaihai Ancestral Hall, and Dongtian Tower have been successively built here. With winding mountain paths, towering ancient trees, and pavilions scattered throughout, it has long been known as the "Misty Rain over Dongtian."

      In 1979, it was turned into a public park, and later structures such as the Martyrs’ Monument, Daguanting Pavilion, Wangjiang Pavilion, Yanyuting Pavilion, Deyue Tower, and Yanyulou were built successively.
