The Pizhi Pagoda (Chinese: 辟支塔; pinyin: Pìzhī Tǎ) is an 11th-century Chinese pagoda located at Lingyan Temple, Changqing, near Jinan, Shandong province, China.
This octagonal-based, nine-story-tall, brick-and-stone pagoda stands at a height of 54 m (177 ft).
[1] The basic structure of the pagoda is built of brick, although the exterior facade has carved stone elements.
The first, second, and third stories feature balconies supported by typical Chinese dougong brackets.
The iron steeple crowning the top of the pagoda is composed of an inverted bowl, discs, a sun, a crescent, and a bead.
