Wanshou Pagoda is a key cultural relics protection unit in the country on the elephant nose of Jingjiang embankment southwest of Shacheng City, Jingzhou City. The tower was started in Ming Jiajing in 27 years (1548 AD), and Jiajing was built in 30 years. For the Liao Wang Zhu Xianzun, who attacked the king in Jiangling, the order of his mother Mao Taifei was built for the emperor Jiajing's life, and there was a repair.

The Wanshou Pagoda was built in the Ming Jiajing period and has a history of nearly 500 years. The pagoda is located in the Wanshou Garden on Guanyinji, the Yangtze River embankment. The biggest feature is that the tower machine is below the ground, which is very rare. In fact, the reason is that the Yangtze River embankment has been rising for hundreds of years, and the result is that the pagoda is "drilled", and the ground is actually raised. You can climb the tower, there are Buddha statues in the tower, the stairs to the tower are relatively narrow, but you can climb to the top of the tower overlooking the vast Yangtze River, as well as the city view of Shashi and the Yangtze River embankment. Many celebrity poems and inscriptions have been repaired on the walls outside the tower, which are more classic and worth visiting one by one.
The Wanshou Pagoda was built in the Ming Dynasty. The wind and rain and the wind of the river have been washed for more than 600 years. His famous place is the exquisite sculpture of each special project. Although we are repairing today, we did not go in, but the exquisite sculpture art of this tower is also very admired and marveled.
The tower is southward, the tower is built with brick and stone, eight corners and seven levels, and the height is 40.76 meters. Due to the mud and sand accumulation, the Yangtze River bed has increased year by year, and the lower part of the tower has been buried in the Jingjiang embankment built year by year with the increase of the river bed. The tower base is lower than the current embankment surface 7.23 meters, which has become a witness to the changes of Jingjiang.
