White Pagoda

It is said that the white tower on the shore of the Slender West Lake today is built by Yangzhou salt merchants for Qianlong. Jiang Chun, one of the eight salt merchants, is made with 10,000 gold and piled with salt overnight. Because the white tower is hidden between the trees, Qianlong is far away when he sees it, and he can't detect the truth. He can't help but feel: "Humane Yangzhou salt merchants are rich in the world, and it really deserves its reputation." After Qianlong left Yangzhou, Jiangchun spent heavy money to build a real white tower.

The white tower in the Slender West Lake scenic spot is one of the most famous landmarks in the scenic spot. This building was built in the Qing Qianlong years and modeled on the Beihai white tower in Beijing. If you go where to travel, you can also go to the Slender West Lake Scenic Area at night. All the buildings are under the light, which looks very beautiful.

The white tower is located on the shore of the Slender West Lake. It was built in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. The style is similar to the Beihai White Tower in Beijing. The tower is built with a rectangular high platform, surrounded by column boards, and there is a small platform in front. The small Taipei surface and both sides are built with stairs to climb people. The tower is located in the center of the high platform, the bottom is the brick carving of the bridge, the tower belly (also known as the treasure bottle), the tower belly is the tower neck, and then the 13 layers of thin circle, called "13 days", the top is covered with a disk, the top is the copper gourd tower.

Yangzhou Slender West Lake Lotus Temple White Pagoda was built during the Qing Qianlong period.

The white tower here echoes the white tower in Beijing's Beihai. The size is smaller than Beijing. It is a cultural reservation of Tibetan Buddhism. It is picturesque and scattered. I really feel the ancients' phrase "Fireworks go down to Yangzhou in March".
