Maota is an ancient pagoda in Sancha area, which was built during the reign of Tang Ganfu (874-879). It has a five-story square, pavilion-like brick-wood structure, about 30 meters high. Towers have been built throughout the ages, but now the tower body is complete, and the tower gates and phase wheels still exist. 1995 repair wood structure and brakes. But there is no data to prove whether the existing tower is Tang or Song. To be tested.
Maota is also a beacon tower: during the Ganfu period of Tang Gaozong (874-879), a sea-like monk built a pagoda in Maohe River, and later added a temple pavilion named Zhao Cheng Temple. During the Song Dynasty, it was renamed Futian Temple, also known as the Long Water Tower Hospital. At that time, the Maohe River was vast, and the ships coming and going were marked by Maota. At night, lights are hung on the tower to indicate the passage. This tower is both a stupa and a lighthouse, serving two purposes.
Temple destroyed tower: Ming Longtu's "Futian Temple Tower" contains: "Climb the tower, sit in the Sutra Pavilion, look out from the railing, smoke and water are everywhere; The monks are floating in the sky, towering between the clouds and the green, and Hong Tao is pounding and shaking day and night ... Mountains and rivers between the clouds are the best. "
The original buildings of Futian Temple include stele pavilion, mountain gate, bell tower, drum tower, Jiangshan Building I, pavilion, Wenchang Pavilion, Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, Jiege Pavilion, Cleanroom, Monk House, Release Platform, Zhai House, Zen Hall, Hall, guanyin temple, Zhuan Tibetan Hall, Wu Temple and Daxiong Hall. There are many plaques hanging in it, such as Yunshan Hall, Zhu's Mountain View Building, Li's Smoke-soaking and Moon-hiding, Dong Qichang's Zhao Mengfu Abbot and Xiaojinshan, etc. Mo Bao gathered here and arranged elegantly.
In the seventh year of the Republic of China (19 18), the temple was still there, the tower was still intact, and the cornices were tilted four times. Later, due to years of disrepair, the brick body was solid, the waist eaves were broken, most of the flat wooden structures were left behind, and the railings were lost. There are three overlapping ways of water chestnut teeth under flat seat. In the tower brake part, tilting disc wheels are stored.
