Six Harmonious Pagoda
It lies in the south of the West Lake and bank of Qiantang River. In 970 A.D., the king of Wu State built the pagoda to pray for the peace and good luck.
In its history, the pagoda was destroyed for many times. The pagoda existing now was restored in late Qing dynasty. With 7 floors and a height of 59.89 meters, the pagoda is featured by its distinct style and the grand outline which looks like a strong general. When you stand on the pagoda, you can get a panorama view of the famous Qiantang River Bridge and the river.
