China ancient pagoda pays attention to geomantic omen.

The ancients knew that no place was perfect, and some bad environments could be artificially changed. The so-called visual intelligence is a tool of strength. From Houlongshan and Shuikoushan in ancient villages, a large number of trees have been planted and strictly protected, which shows that the ancients attached great importance to the construction of ecological environment. There are many ways to change the feng shui landscape, such as changing rivers, building bridges, roads, digging ponds, building fences, building towers, etc., in order to obtain a good living environment.

A Buddhist building in ancient India, which buried the relics left by Buddha Sakyamuni after cremation, was introduced to China in the Han Dynasty and combined with local buildings in China to form the Huata. With the spread of Buddhism in the East, the architectural form of "Gudupo" is also widely spread in the East, and the traditional architectural form with oriental characteristics has been developed.

After Buddhism was introduced into China, it was combined with the heavy buildings in China, and experienced the development in Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. It exchanged and merged with the architectural systems in the surrounding areas, and gradually formed a variety of tower systems with different shapes and structures, such as pavilion tower, dense eaves tower, pavilion tower, covered bowl tower, king kong throne tower, seal pagoda, five-wheel tower, multi-tower and seamless tower. During this period, the construction technology of the tower has also been continuously improved, and the structure has become increasingly reasonable. The materials used have also expanded from traditional rammed earth and wood to materials such as masonry, ceramics, glass and metal. After14th century, pagodas gradually moved from the religious world to the secular world, so according to the Confucian classic system, pagodas can be divided into pagodas and Wenfeng pagodas.

On the architectural level, the tower is a very unique oriental building with huge volume and diverse materials. The geological conditions in different areas are different, and the tower-building technology is also different. The architectural research on the tower involves many aspects such as material mechanics, structural mechanics, soil science, geology and so on.
