How to draw the Big Wild Goose Pagoda

The drawing steps of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda are as follows:

Step one:

Draw the spire of the top floor first, and draw a square with the vertex of the triangle as the vertex and the vertical rectangle at the vertex of the triangle as the vertex. Then draw a layer-by-layer tower, and draw a five-layer rectangular tower, which becomes longer from top to bottom.

Step two:

Next, add a semicircular door to each floor of the tower. Paint the tower body and top light brown.

Step 3:

Finally, paint the door and the edge dark brown, and the stick figure of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda comes out.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is named "Ci 'en Temple Pagoda" because it is located in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in Jinchangfang, Chang 'an in the Tang Dynasty (now southwest of Shaanxi Province). Built in the third year of Tang Yonghui (AD 652), it is a masterpiece of Buddhist architecture in the Tang Dynasty in China and the earliest and largest square pavilion-style brick tower in the Tang Dynasty.

In the third year of Yonghui (652), Xuanzang invited Emperor Gaozong to build it in the central and western courtyards of the temple to store the scriptures and cultural relics Xuanzang brought back from India. The tower has a base of 140 feet, imitating the western system instead of following this ancient style. The tower has five floors, exposed in parallel, and is 180 feet high (see Biography of Master Sanzang). The tower is made of topsoil core bricks, so there are many flowers and trees, which will rot in a few decades.
