Yunyan Temple Pagoda, also called Huqiu Pagoda, stands on Huqiu Hill in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province. It has become a landmark of the city. More than a thousand years old, the pagoda is the earliest, most magnificent and most exquisite pagoda of the Song Dynasty. The seventh story, once severely damaged, was restored during the Ming Dynasty. Still leaning but standing firm, the Yunyan Temple Pagoda, a miracle of China, is over one hundred years older than the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy. [Xinwantong/bbs.fengniao.com]
