Guilin's new landmark: golden and silver pagodas mirrored in Shan Lake
About This Place
The Sun and Moon Pagodas Cultural Park is located in the heart of Guilin, centered on Shan Lake within the Two Rivers and Four Lakes scenic water system. The park features the Sun Pagoda, the world's tallest bronze pagoda, and the Moon Pagoda, an exquisite glazed pagoda, connected by an underwater tunnel. It blends Tang Dynasty Buddhist culture with modern architectural craftsmanship. When illuminated at night, the golden and silver pagodas cast stunning reflections on the lake, making it an unmissable spot for night views in Guilin.
