Araniko’s White Pagoda in China after 2 years of maintenance [With video]
2021-09-19

(Hello friends, long time no see!

after a long gap,  i am trying to come back here in CD plateform, i don't know either its working or not, lets have a try. i wanna introduce a manument called White pagoda in Beijing ) 

The Swetchaitya (White Pagoda), built by Nepali artist Araniko, is in the heart of Beijing. The construction of Emperor Kublai Khan started in 1271 and was completed in 1279.

When this property was built, it was a unique ‘pagoda tower’ for the Chinese. The 51-meter-high White Pagoda became popular due to its ancient Tibetan style.

For almost 8 centuries, this heritage has stood as a symbol of Nepal-China friendship and witness of friendship. It has been renovated many times since it became old. During the Ming Dynasty, the White Pagoda was restored five times. The White Pagoda has been renovated for the last time and made public in a new form.

After the founding of the New China (People’s Republic) in 1949, the significance of this heritage increased. It was saved from being damaged during the Cultural Revolution in China. China has also given high importance to this heritage as a bridge of close friendship between China and Nepal.

Nepalis get free access to this architectural fund, which seems to be tied to the friendship between China and Nepal. Heads of state and government visiting Nepal from China have also been visiting this heritage site.


Pls, open the link to watch a video, waiting your valuable comments, thank you.

Although I have lived in Beijing for many years I have never visited the White Pagoda Temple. Thank you so much for the history lesson.

So happy to see your latest photo. You have become more handsome after two-year dis-appearance from the CD.  You looked like artist or singer if judged through your avatar. 
(I wish you don't mind the remarks on looking since both of us are men instead of girls.)
