Introduction of the Five Pagoda Temple:

Five-Pagoda Temple, also called Jingangzuo Sheli Baota, is located in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. As there are five small dagobas on the pedestal of the pagoda, it is named Wuta Si. Wuta si was originally a building of the temple constructed during 1727 to 1732. Now the temple has disappeared, but the pagoda has remained.

   
Five-Pagoda Temple

This pagoda is 16 meters high and it is composed of three parts: the base, the seat and the top. the lower part of the seat is inlaid with inscriptions of Diamond Sutra written in Mongolian, Tibetan and Sanskrit. The upper part is niches holding gold-plated statues of the Buddha. The body of this pagoda is glazed in greens and yellows. On the northern wall of the pagoda, three sculptures are inlaid. The Mongolian Astronomical Map is the only one labeled in Mongolian so far in the world and it is of great importance to scientific research.

   

Compared with other pagodas, the Five-Pagoda Temple is unique in at least two aspects: its special structure, as pagodas over pagoda, and the green and yellow colored glazes on the short eaves and tops of pagodas. Those make Five-Pagoda Temple quite special, a treasure of Hohhot City.
