❤ Recommended reason:
The Dongji Pagoda is the easternmost landmark in China, known as "The First Tower of the East."
👍 Top recommendation:
The Dongji Pagoda is built in the architectural style of the Han and Tang dynasties. Centered around the pagoda, there are three sculptures: Kirin Offering Auspiciousness, Dongji Treasure Cauldron, and Divine Tortoise Exploring Water. The Dongji Pagoda is located in the center of Taiji Square.
Through the pagoda gate tower, there are 12 dragon pillars symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guideway. The reliefs on the dragon pillars depict the evolution of the dragon's image over 5,000 years of Chinese history.
🌟 Highlights:
Climb the Dongji Pagoda and look north to see the bustling Heilongjiang River, and look east to see Khabarovsk, the largest city in the Russian Far East. Using the Sino-Russian border post as a reference, the boundary line is clearly visible.
