Introduction to the Amitabha Thousand Buddha Pagoda: The Amitabha Thousand Buddha Pagoda in the Great Buddha Temple is one of the Five Elements Pagodas (earth pagoda) in Zhangye, and is commonly known as the earth pagoda locally. The tower is 33.37 meters high. According to legend, the ashes of the eminent monk Sakyamuni Shemosheng from the Western Regions are placed there.
The entire tower consists of three parts: the tower base, the tower body, and the phase wheel. The canopy shrinks upwards layer by layer, with a total of thirteen sections. The canopy is more than four meters in diameter, surrounded by thirty-six copper tiles and hung with 36 tassel wind chimes, which is somewhat similar to the White Pagoda in Beijing.
