Seven-storied stone pagoda in Tappyeong-ri

The seven-level stone structure rises from a square foundation through multiple tiers of finely carved granite blocks, displaying traditional architectural elements.

Constructed during a period of Buddhist expansion in Korea, this stone pagoda represents the evolution from wooden structures to more permanent stone monuments.

The pagoda incorporates traditional Korean stone masonry techniques and Buddhist architectural principles through its symmetrical design and precise geometric proportions.

Visitors can access the pagoda site in North Chungcheong province throughout the year, with dedicated parking spaces and informational signs in multiple languages.

Each level of the pagoda features intricate stone carvings that demonstrate advanced engineering methods used to lock granite blocks without mortar.
