Pagoda of Bailin Temple, Buddhist pagoda in Zhao County, China.

The octagonal brick pagoda rises 40 meters high with seven stories, featuring detailed carvings of musicians, celestial guardians, and animals on its stone foundation.

Built in 1330 during the Yuan Dynasty reign of Emperor Wenzong, the pagoda stands at the Bailin Monastery site, which originated as Guan Yin Monastery in the second century.

The pagoda represents northern Chinese architectural traditions through its multi-eaved design, carved brackets, and ornamental patterns depicting Buddhist motifs and natural elements.

Located at 23 Shita East Road in Zhao County, the pagoda opens daily from 8:00 to 16:00, allowing visitors to explore its grounds without admission fees.

The structure contains two rows of intricate stone carvings on its Sumeru pedestal, displaying dragons, elephants, lions, deer, and peonies in precise detail.
