Xi'an landmark
Giant Wild Goose Pagoda
A seven-tier brick pagoda in Ci'en Temple, built in 652 under Xuanzang's guidance.
Use 大雁塔 as the destination, then confirm the active visitor entrance before booking a ride. Xi'an’s municipal attraction page places the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda in the courtyard of Ci'en Temple and says it was built in 652 under the guidance of the monk Xuanzang to house Buddhist statues and scriptures brought back from India. The Xi'an Local Chronicles Office identifies 大雁塔 as the pagoda of Da Ci'en Temple. The reviewed official sources do not publish a visitor street address, so this card deliberately does not invent one. Check live official visitor information for entry, tickets and operating arrangements.
