Twin Pagodas (Suzhou) (original) (raw)

Property Value
dbo:abstract The Twin Pagodas are the main remnant of the Dinghui Buddhist temple in Suzhou, China. Twin pagodas are a rare feature of Chinese temples, which usually had a single pagoda. Both are built of brick and they are similar in size, having eight sides and seven stories. Except for the octagonal room on the second floor, all rooms are square, each one staggered 45 degrees from the lower storey. The pagodas are about 30 metres high. Their steeples are made of iron and are long relative to the whole pagoda, which is also rare among ancient Chinese pagodas. Their names are Reliquary (Śarīra) Pagoda and Beneficial Virtue Reliquary Pagoda (or "Clarity Dispensing Pagoda" and "Beneficence Pagoda".)The pagodas were once called "Sarira Stupa" and "Sarira Stupa of Merits and Benevolence".) Columns, plinths and decapitated statues belonging to the Tang-era temple can be seen near the pagodas. (en) 罗汉院双塔及正殿遗址位于中国江苏省苏州市姑苏区定慧寺巷22号。 (zh)
