大雁塔
Big Wild Goose Pagoda
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is located in the Daci'en Temple and is an important relic of Buddhist scripture translation and Silk Road exchanges in the Tang Dynasty. It is closely related to Xuanzang and the preservation of the classics brought back from India, and should be understood in conjunction with the temple space and the history of Chang'an, the international capital, rather than just as a skyline landmark.

Getting there
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda Station can reach the entire area, and there may be different admission arrangements for temples and towers.
Practical notes
The outer square and Tang Culture Commercial Street are public spaces, and admission to the temple and climbing the tower may be managed separately. You should confirm the arrangements for climbing the tower and religious activities on the day, and dress appropriately. It is recommended to visit the temple during the day before deciding whether to return at night to experience the outer neighborhoods.
