Shousheng Temple Pagoda in Nanyang Village

　　Shousheng Temple Pagoda is situated within the school grounds of Nanyang Village, Liwang Township, Wanrong County, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province. It has an octagonal floor plan and covers an area of approximately 60 square meters. Its construction date is unknown, but it is judged to be a structure from the Song Dynasty based on its architectural style. The pagoda has eleven stories in total and is a pavilion-style brick pagoda. The main body is octagonal, about 30 meters high, with the first story having sides that are 2.8 meters long, a diameter of 6.6 meters, and a height of 5 meters. The first floor features brick carvings of bracket sets (dougong) that imitate wooden structures, while the floors above the second have corbelled brick eaves. Except for the ninth and eleventh floors, all other levels have arched brick gateways on the southern façade. The height of each level gradually decreases from the bottom up, and the spire has been destroyed. Beside the pagoda lies an iron bell from the Jin Dynasty, featuring a niúláo (a mythical beast) knob and round shoulders. It was cast in the 12th year of the Dading era of the Jin Dynasty (1172 AD), stands 2.35 meters tall, has a diameter of 1.65 meters, and is 0.05 meters thick. Inscriptions are cast around its body, and it is a relic of the original Shengshou Temple.
