Wanbu Huayanjin Pagoda

Located in the eastern suburbs of the city, it was built in the Liao Dynasty (916-1125). It is a seven-story pagoda in octagonal shape and 43 meters high. The walls of first two storeys are inlaid with carved brick images of Buddhas and other Buddhist figures, lifelike and graceful. Stone tablets from the Kin Dynasty (1115-1234) and inscriptions in languages of different nationalities by visitors of different dynasties are well preserved in the pagoda.
