Double-Pagoda Temple
The temple, also called Yongzuo Temple, was built during the Wanli Reign of the Ming
Dynasty. Double Pagoda Temple is renowned for its two pagodas, which have become the
symbol of Taiyuan. The two octagonal pagodas are 53 metres with 13 storeys. They are
decorated with exquisite brick brackets and upturned glaze tiled roof. From the top of
them one has a panoramic view of the city and the Fenhe River. The temple also has a
famous peony garden where ancient peony plants and clove trees, planted in the Ming
Dynasty, can be seen.
