Six Harmonies Pagoda (Liuhe Ta)

The Six Harmonies Pagoda is on Yuelun Hill on the north bank of the Qiantang River in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Prov­ince. The name comes from the six Buddhist harmonies of the heaven, earth, north, south, east, and west. The pagoda was first built in 971 by the King of Wuyue State, who intended to demonstrate his authority by conquering the floods of the Qiantang River. In 1153 the pagoda got a full restoration. Seen from the outside, the pagoda looks like a 13-story build­ing; in actuality, there are only seven stories.
