Baitashan Park

Baitashan Park is located in the northern part of Chengguan District, Lanzhou City, Gansu Province, and is named after the White Pagoda Temple on the top of the hill. The White Pagoda, together with the Lanzhou Yellow River Iron Bridge, forms a magnificent and majestic scene, and is one of the symbols of Lanzhou City in Gansu Province. The White Pagoda was originally built during the Yuan Dynasty and rebuilt in the Ming Dynasty. The temple has a rectangular plan with the White Pagoda at the center. The pagoda has an octagonal seven-tiered body, about seventeen meters high, with a green top, a round base, and a pure white body that is tall and graceful. To the south of the pagoda are three large temple buildings, to the north is the Cundi Bodhisattva Hall, and to the east and west are several side halls. The White Pagoda combines exquisite architectural structure and superb carving art, showcasing the intelligence and artistic creativity of the ancient working people, and is a masterpiece of ancient Chinese architecture. From the top of Baitashan, one can overlook the cityscape of Lanzhou.
