Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda scenic area is very large, consisting of two squares in the north and south and a Da Ci'en Temple. Because we went there late, we did not enter the temple, let alone climb the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. According to everyone's travel notes, you don't actually need to climb the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to see it, and the musical fountain of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is the most worth seeing.

The guide says that the evening music fountain show is at 8:30. To be on the safe side, I asked the staff of the scenic spot and they said it was changed to 9 pm. The time of the music fountain will be adjusted around May 1st and October 1st every year. This is also adjusted according to the sunset time, so everyone must pay attention to avoid missing it, especially friends who like taking pictures, must inquire about the time in advance, stand early, and have a good shooting angle. In order to see the light music fountain at night, I came to the North Square half an hour in advance. There were already a lot of people. I found a gap and didn't move again, waiting for the show to start. The 20-minute music fountain, with the Big Wild Goose Pagoda as the background, is beautiful and spectacular. As for the feeling, you still have to experience it yourself~

When I got out of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda subway station and went up to the ground, I was immediately surrounded by people. Fortunately, that night (I forgot that tonight was Valentine's Day) Xi'an had deployed almost all the police forces, right? Traffic police and security guards were stationed every three steps and every five steps to maintain order, just like the police deployment in front of the Jinbiji Pavilion in Kunming on Christmas Eve one year.

The number of people entering the North and South Squares of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda had already been restricted. Tourists who had already entered could not wander around randomly, but had to walk in a general direction, that is, clockwise, and were not allowed to walk against the flow of people.

I entered from a side door between the north and south squares of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. I don't know if it was because it was Valentine's Day or it was still the Spring Festival, but the lights in this large area were dazzling and gorgeous.

Walk 500 meters east from the Shaanxi Museum and you will see the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square. It just happened to be the opening of the musical fountain at 12:00 noon. It is said to be the largest musical fountain in Asia. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda has 7 floors, which means it is better than a seven-story pagoda...

Walking in the square, someone introduced that it was only 10 yuan for two people to visit the light rail (the light rail costs 80 yuan per person). Although I thought there might be shopping spots, I really couldn't walk anymore. I walked to some unimportant spots, introduced some things we didn't know, stopped to take pictures for us, and took pictures for us. When we went to the shopping spots, the master was embarrassed and said that you just need to go in and visit. It doesn't matter if you don't buy. When he heard that we were going to see the cherry blossoms, he said that the cherry blossom trees moved from Japan are in Qinglong Temple, and sent us to Qinglong Temple. I know they must have their own interests, but it's harmless to us. The taxi ride is more than this price. The Zhenguan Reign, Wang Baochuan's hard work in the cold kiln, Wu Zetian's small wild goose pagoda for Princess Taiping, the imperial garden of the year, Yang Guifei's seven jade horses, and the pink hibiscus jade named after Yang Guifei's boudoir...

The first floor of the Zhenguanzhizhi Square is the Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, the second floor is his right-hand man, and the third floor is the musicians. There are four pillars on each side, a total of eight on both sides, indicating that his rule was stable.

We walked slowly from the South Square, passed the Da Ci'en Temple Ruins Park and arrived at the North Square. We were afraid that there would be too many people at night, so we chose the 6 o'clock show! It was very spectacular and beautiful. I believe the 8:30 pm show must be even more beautiful! Because there were so many people, we reserved a seat on the side at 5:30, which was not so convenient with children. If we were in the front, we could see the whole fountain, and I believe it would be more shocking! Give yourself a reason to go again!

As a landmark building in Xi'an, Big Wild Goose Pagoda has become a must-visit spot for many tourists. There is a musical fountain in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which is very famous and large in scale. The musical fountain was not turned on when I went there, but the lights on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda were still golden at night, giving a sense of Buddha's light shining everywhere. The North Square is relatively prosperous, surrounded by snack streets and restaurants. It is a landmark building in Xi'an, and it is also a great place to visit.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is towering into the sky. It has seven floors and a total height of more than 60 meters. The width of the base is about 25 meters, presenting a unique aesthetic effect. It is one of the most iconic buildings in the city of Xi'an. In the Tang Dynasty, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda became a holy place for people to climb the tower and pray for their relatives during the Double Ninth Festival because of its majestic appearance and the convenience of climbing and looking far away. Not only that, "writing names on the Wild Goose Pagoda" has become a unique custom. Talented scholars who passed the imperial examinations would climb the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and carve their names on the wall of the tower to commemorate their glorious moments.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda, a landmark building in Xi'an, is located in the Da Ci'en Temple in Jinchangfang, Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty (now south of Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province). It is a brick tower built by Master Xuanzang to enshrine the Buddha statues, relics and Sanskrit scriptures brought back from India. In 1961, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda was announced by the State Council of the People's Republic of China as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is located in the Da Ci'en Temple, also known as the "Ci'en Temple Pagoda". It was built by Master Xuanzang to preserve the Buddhist scriptures and statues brought back to Chang'an from India via the Silk Road. You need to buy a ticket to enter the Da Ci'en Temple, but the North and South Squares of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the nearby Tang Dynasty City are open to the public free of charge. The outdoor square on the fourth floor of Xi'an Qujiang Joy City next to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda allows you to enjoy the night view of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the red wall outside the Heytea store is a popular check-in spot.

In order to check out Asia’s largest musical fountain, we arrived at the Dayan Pagoda North Square in the evening.

We arrived early and took the opportunity to enjoy the night view of Xi'an, which was really beautiful.



The fountain is divided into three areas: a 100-meter waterfall pool, an eight-level plunge pool and a front-end music pool. It can be divided into three areas for independent performances or as a whole performance.

There are two performances every day from Monday to Friday at 12:00 noon and 8:00 pm.

There will be five performances on Saturdays, Sundays and other statutory holidays at 12:00 noon, 2:00, 4:00, 6:00 and 8:00 p.m.

Among them, the fountain equipment underwent routine maintenance on Tuesday and was shut down during the day.



Be sure to reserve a seat 10-20 minutes in advance, as the place will be packed with people 10 minutes before the start.

It is right outside the Dayan Pagoda subway station. If you want to see the musical fountain, it is recommended to go there half an hour in advance and find a better seat. If you go late, you can only watch it on the third floor outside where there are crowds of people. The fountain lasts for 20 minutes at a time. You can ask the security brother on site for the specific time.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain starts at 9 o'clock in the evening. Be sure to take a favorable position early, let the children and mothers go to the fast food restaurants with air conditioning nearby to rest, and the young and strong people line up in the crowded and stuffy queues to fight mosquitoes because there are many small mosquitoes near the water, so bring mosquito repellent and spray more

When we saw the kids were amazed by the beautiful hot springs and were so excited and happy~ Our sweat was not in vain. We spent 20 minutes in the fountain. It was suggested to leave early when it was almost over, because it would be terrible if a large number of people dispersed at the same time. We left early and took the time to take a taxi back to the hotel to avoid traffic jams and congestion after the show~

There is a fountain show at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square in the evening.

There were performances and fountains, but there were too many people to see them clearly.

There is a huge musical fountain in the square, but the main attraction is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the Da Ci'en Temple.

The fountain show at night is nice and the night view is great.

The night view of Big Wild Goose Pagoda is very beautiful, and the musical fountain is in the North Square.

The musical fountain on the North Square looks particularly beautiful at night!

When I went to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, it was under renovation. There was a musical fountain at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda at night, but it was not as beautiful as the musical fountain at Fushun Crescent Island.

You can enter Da Ci'en Temple from the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. There is a large musical fountain in this square. If it is your first time to Xi'an, I recommend you to come and see it.



Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square starts from the south end of Yanta Road in the north, connects to the north outer wall of Da Ci'en Temple in the south, extends to Square East Road in the east, and Square West Road in the west. It is 480 meters wide from east to west and 350 meters long from north to south, covering an area of 252 mu, with a construction area of about 110,000 square meters and a total investment of about 500 million yuan. The entire square consists of water fountains, cultural squares, garden landscapes, cultural corridors, and tourism and trade facilities.



The entire square is divided into three equal parts with the Big Wild Goose Pagoda as the central axis. The center is the main waterway, and the left and right sides are divided into "Tang Poetry Garden Area", "Dharma Flowerbed Area", "Zen Meditation Forest Area" and other landscapes. The south end of the square is equipped with "Waterfall", "Theme Waterscape", "Viewing Platform" and other landscapes.

I visited Dayanda, but didn't see the fountain because it doesn't open until 8 p.m., and we have several fountains in Hangzhou ourselves.

Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square is located in Yanta District, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province. The entire square consists of water fountains, cultural squares, garden landscapes, cultural corridors and tourism and trade facilities.

Can the information on China-TravelNote be more accurate? I came all the way here, only to find out that the music fountain has not been open for the past month. Also, Da Ci'en Temple and Big Wild Goose Pagoda are closed after 5:30. China-TravelNote said 6:30. I was misled.

However, the night view of the Tang Dynasty City that never sleeps opposite the South Square is really beautiful, with colorful lights and magnificent momentum, a scene of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. There are many bands performing on the whole street, as well as various special snacks. It is recommended to go to Yintai Department Store. There are many restaurants. My friend and I went to Yuanjia Village's Guanzhong Food Court. There are many kinds of snacks and I wanted to try them all. However, my stomach capacity is limited, so I only ate stewed vegetables, buckwheat noodles, fried cakes, and beef patties. The fried cakes are sweet, soft, sticky and crispy. Be careful not to burn the filling when eating. The beef patties are also crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the filling is especially fragrant.

The most famous thing in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square is the musical fountain. Each performance lasts 25 minutes and is very spectacular. There are also many people watching, especially at night. In addition to the fountain, there are also the Grand View Garden and the Folk Grand View Garden. You can come and see them after watching the fountain.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda during the day is obviously not as beautiful as the night view, and there is also a musical fountain at 8 o'clock in the evening.

The musical fountain in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda is very famous. If you have the chance, go and see it.

There are so many people in the square, probably all the locals are out on the weekend

As the saying goes, “If you haven’t visited the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, you haven’t really been to Xi’an.” The Big Wild Goose Pagoda, also known as the Da Ci’en Temple Pagoda, is a masterpiece of Buddhist architectural art from the Tang Dynasty in China.

It is a civic square where you can see the fountain and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda from a distance.

There are many scenery in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda, all of which are very beautiful and dreamy.

Although there are crowds of people everywhere, you won't feel like visiting again after just one visit; on the contrary, you'll see many families out, young and old, and it's lively and bustling, making you feel that this is the flavor of the New Year.

The North Square is home to the famous musical fountain, which performs at 12:00 noon and 20:30 every day.

Resting in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Park, looking at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda so close, the "Big Wild Goose Pagoda in Xi'an" mentioned in a text I read in elementary school echoed in my ears, which was very special. It was also very comfortable to lazily bask in the sun.

Located in Yanta District, Xi'an, it starts from the southern end of Yanta Road in the north, connects to the northern outer wall of Da Ci'en Temple in the south, extends to Guangchang East Road in the east, and Guangchang West Road in the west. It is 480 meters wide from east to west and 350 meters long from north to south, covers an area of 252 mu, and has a construction area of about 110,000 square meters. The entire square consists of water fountains, cultural squares, garden landscapes, cultural corridors, and tourism and trade facilities. The entire square is divided into three equal parts with the Big Wild Goose Pagoda as the central axis. The center is the main waterway, and the left and right sides are divided into "Tang Poetry Garden Area", "Dharma Flower Altar Area", "Zen Meditation Forest Area" and other landscapes.

I had some free time during my business trip, so I went to visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

I went there for the musical fountain, but was a little disappointed in the end. I waited for an hour but there was nothing to see.

As night falls, the lights in Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square light up, and the entire square exudes a different glow.

There are many portraits of Tang Dynasty figures in the square, and I couldn’t wait to take a photo with Bai Juyi.

There is a bronze statue of Xuanzang in the North Square. He stands in front of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, as if he has been guarding the fertile land where he once lived and spread Buddhism.

At night, you can go to the North Square of Dayan Pagoda to see Asia's largest fountain square and waterscape square, where people are crowded every day. If you want to take pictures, please stand at the front stone railing. You can use the "night view" mode in your mobile phone. It is best to bring a mobile phone tripod as a support to prevent the shaking of the mobile phone when taking pictures, which will cause serious blur. If necessary, you can take a video as a souvenir.

There will be a musical fountain show at 8:30 pm. If you want to stand in the first row, you must go early, otherwise there will be people everywhere... But the atmosphere is pretty good and lively.

When we got there, the fountain square in front of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda was performing a musical fountain. There were huge crowds of people. We waited until the lights in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda were lit up and then left.

The largest fountain in Asia is not covered. I went to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to see it once during the day and then went to see the night view at night. It was very good!

It is a large public leisure square, and the musical fountain in the square is the most famous. There are also many stone statues on both sides of the road, most of which are famous figures over the past thousands of years, including Li Bai who raised his cup to invite the bright moon, Huaisu monk who was crowned with cursive script, and Sun Simiao, the master of medicine for generations.

The North Square of Dayan Pagoda was rehearsing for the New Year's Eve event the next day. We didn't see the musical fountain as expected, which was a pity, but we were also looking forward to the New Year's Eve event.

Apart from the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, I didn't see anything else, and I also missed the musical fountain. You need to buy a ticket to walk to the middle area of the North Square to see the musical fountain.

There is a musical fountain at 8pm in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda, but it is frozen in winter, so there is one in summer. It is a pity that I missed it this time. However, the snowflakes and peach blossoms are very beautiful.

The entire square is centered around the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, with the main waterway in the center and multiple landscapes on the left and right sides and at the south end of the square.

Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square is the most famous square in the city. Every night, there is the largest musical fountain show in Asia. It is a good place for tourists and citizens to take a leisure walk. The whole square is centered on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, with the main waterway in the center and many landscapes on the left and right sides and the south end of the square.

On the east side is the Shaanxi Opera Grand View Garden, which features painted opera sculptures and local opera bronze reliefs.

There are so many people, and there is also a Tang Dynasty City that never sleeps, which is packed with people during holidays... The lights are brighter, and you can see the silence and disdainful noise of Dayan City at night...

It was a full moon that day, and the moon was very beautiful. I waited for a while before I got to the middle of it.

Friends who have been here said that it is best to come to the North Square to see Asia's largest musical fountain when you have time. So after we finished visiting the city wall, we took a taxi here. The taxi driver said that we didn't know if there would be a fountain show today. We were unsure. Because we didn't know the time of the fountain show in advance, we came here rashly. After getting off the car, we found that there were many people in the square. We just stood in front of the fountain and the fountain show started, exactly at 8:30. Oh, this really touched us. As the music became heavier and heavier, the fountain changed different shapes and the lights changed accordingly. The water jet sprayed into the air and fell heavily, and the sound was very shocking. Many people walked into the fountain to experience the beauty of the fountain up close. After 20 minutes, the fountain show ended. I didn't want to leave yet, and everyone didn't want to leave either, and they were still not satisfied.

At this time, the area near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda was under repair and construction, so it was a bit chaotic. Of course, the fountain was definitely closed. My friend and I didn't seem to have a connection with the fountain. I didn't expect there to be so many food next to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which could be said to be a whole row. We sat outside the wall and admired other tourists of all kinds. Then we came to the main gate, but didn't enter. We just continued to admire the tourists in the square in front of the gate, reviewed the baby cassock and the black bear monster, took a few photos from a distance, and completed the check-in. I continued to walk back to the subway entrance from the other side. I heard that walking around the tower would bring good luck, so my friend and I walked around happily, and I hope everyone will have good luck. I believe that everyone will catch the fountain when they go there in the summer. Judging from the layout of the fountain in the square, it will definitely be very beautiful.

I've been there before and it's just a square, not much special features

I went there during the National Day holiday. There were so many people at night that my cell phone had no signal.

I wanted to see the musical fountain, but for some reason it wasn't there, and I don't know what time it would open.

All in all, it feels quite chaotic and you shouldn't go there when there are too many people.

It is very lively at night and you can see the starting point of Tang Monk's journey to the West.

The fountain was under maintenance when I went there, but I heard that the combination of music and lights at night is quite beautiful.

The entire square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square consists of water fountains, cultural squares, garden landscapes, cultural corridors and tourism and trade facilities. The entire square is divided into three equal parts with Big Wild Goose Pagoda as the central axis. The center is the main waterway, and the left and right sides are divided into "Tang Poetry Garden Area", "Dharma Flower Altar Area", "Zen Meditation Forest Area" and other landscapes. The southern end of the square is set up with "Waterscape Falling Waterfall", "Theme Waterscape", "Viewing Platform" and other landscapes.

There are very few people in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square in Xi'an at night in November. You can stroll around at your leisure. There are food and drinks around, which is the most enjoyable.

After walking out of the museum and heading back in the direction you came from, you will reach the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square after a few intersections. The North Square is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda's music fountain square. My plan that day was to visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the afternoon and wait for the music fountain in the evening. But when I got to the North Square, I saw a notice saying that the fountain system was being upgraded and would be suspended for 5 days... What a bolt from the blue!

The entire square is centered around the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, with the main waterway in the center, where Asia's largest musical fountain performance takes place every night. To the east of the square is the Shaanxi local opera Grand View Garden, and to the west is the Folk Customs Grand View Garden.

There is the highest musical fountain in Asia in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which has several performances during the day and night. There is one at 6pm and 9pm, and I watched the one at 9pm. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is really beautiful with the lights. The beams of light shining behind the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, combined with the historical background of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, feel like the Buddha's light shining everywhere.

Let's talk about the musical fountain. It was average and a bit disappointing. Except for the fountain that can spray up to 20 meters high, which is very impressive, there are no other special features. The combination of music and fountain can be designed a little bit, the rhythm is a bit discordant, and there are too few patterns. After watching it for 20 minutes, it was a bit monotonous.

You can go there according to the fountain schedule. The fountain show during the day was okay, but it is said to be more beautiful at night.

I went there in the afternoon, which was quite convenient. It was only 25 minutes' ride south from Xi'an Station. The scenery was nice, but there were a lot of people. I heard from local classmates that some locals would go there to play at night, so there were a lot of people. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda was built in the Tang Dynasty. It has a total of 7 floors. It feels like it is still preserved in its original state. I didn't go up the tower because I was in a hurry. There is a beautiful musical fountain in the North Square.

In order to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, the musical fountain in the north square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda is being re-arranged. I was not lucky enough to enjoy it during this trip to Xi'an. Maybe next time

It's ok, there are a lot of people. The fountain is ok. It's just an ordinary square, you can see the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

I heard someone playing "Daughter's Love" at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. It was very nice. It turned out to be played with a clay flute. There was no fountain because it was Tuesday when I went there. The fountain is closed every Tuesday.

I bought some delicious Yang Guifei pastry, which is perfect for watching the night view.

In fact, the surroundings are too commercialized. If I were to sit nearby and listen to the crisp sound of wind chimes swaying in the wind, it would probably create a different mood.

The night is really beautiful and more suitable for taking pictures

The North Square is the musical fountain, and the South Square is the entrance to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the statue of Xuanzang. It is quite a distance from the North Square to the South Square.

There is a large fountain square here, but since it was not night and there was no fountain show, there was actually nothing particularly good to see.

When I went to Xi'an, I stayed near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda for 4 nights, so I experienced the scenery of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda square in the morning, noon, evening, and night. The whole square is large and clean, and it also has a cultural atmosphere. Many people do morning exercises here in the morning, and stroll around the square with their children in the evening. The scenery is best at night, and there is also a magnificent musical fountain to watch. Five-star praise!

The North Square is very large, suitable for taking photos, and the scenery is nice!

You can also take photos of the red walls you pass by, so don’t miss it if you pass by.
