Introduction to the architectural pattern of Sansheng Pagoda;

The Three Sacred Pagoda of Tianning Temple is a brick tower with dense eaves. Its square base covers an area of 140 square meters, with a side length of 12.24 meters and a height of 6.5 meters. There is a Sumitomo with a side length of 8.6 meters, which supports the thirteen-story dense eaves tower. There are doors on all sides of the tower on the first floor, and hidden windows are applied on both sides of the door. The height of the above layers decreases from bottom to top, and the width also converges step by step, making the overall outer contour parabolic.

The pagoda is composed of the phase wheel, Aquarius and Aquarius. There is a small pagoda at the top with the phase wheel brake seat and Aquarius on it. The appearance of Sansheng Pagoda is similar to that of Tang Dynasty, and the internal structure is similar to that of Song Dynasty. There is a double-ring wall in the stone foundation, and a cloister walkway is set between the two walls. The center of the inner ring is a double-layer ventricle, and the tower has one to nine floors, each with a ventricle. Each ventricle has four walls, or a Buddhist shrine, or a portal tunnel connected from top to bottom.

Inside the tower is a vertical square passage, which goes all the way to the ninth floor and climbs from the outside of the ninth floor to the top of the thirteenth floor. It means "outside the cloud nine" From the entrance of the tower door to the ninth floor of the tower, you need to go through the "Sanjiu" channel with nine grades, nine turns and nine verticals, and the length of each nine is exactly the same.
