The 10,000-Buddha Pagoda is not very big, but it has a beautiful shape, diverse structures and relatively complete preservation. It is a combination of China's north-south tower-building technology. Tower *** 13 floor, 38.6m high, 24.3m bottom floor, 8 doors on each floor, 4 true and 4 false, 1 the doors and windows below the 7th floor are in the same position, and more than 8 floors are converted layer by layer, staggered up and down. The cornices of each floor are decorated with various patterns. Iron wheels are installed at the top of the tower, and bells are hung on each cornice. More than 300 pieces of ochre, yellow and green colored glazed tiles are embedded inside and outside the tower. Three Buddha statues are carved on each brick, with Sakyamuni and Ye Jia on the left and Ananda on the right. There are also several pieces with only one Buddha statue, totaling more than 6 thousand. Therefore, the tower is called "Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda" in the world.

The Million-Buddha Pagoda in Bozhou has four characteristics: the first # is an octagonal plane, the first floor of the pagoda is extremely high, the lower part is solid, the upper part is trapezoidal, and the main entrance opens in the northern part of the pagoda. Second, the tower is a pavilion, with 2, 3 and 4 floors of flat seats, supported by lotus petals instead of a bucket arch, which is both beautiful and simple. Thirdly, the internal structure of the tower has changed a lot, and it adopts the mixed methods of piercing the heart, cloister, folding in the wall and three-dimensional. Fourth, the inner wall and outer wall of the tower are pasted with Buddha bricks, which is the most example of the Song Tower pasting Buddha statues.

The 10,000-Buddha Pagoda has no pedestal and basement, and the leaning columns on the first floor are melon-shaped, and the leaning columns on the second and third floors are covered with stigmas. The doorways are all Guijiao-shaped, and the bucket arches are double-flowered arches. The patterns of tower windows are diamond, spherical, oblique and turtle-back. The whole tower is beautifully shaped and beautifully made, which is of great value to the study of ancient architectural history. There are poems by predecessors praising "the pagoda shadows the clouds, and the thirteenth floor reflects the sunset;" "The nest crane crows, the wind rises gradually, and the bell rings thousands of miles." The ancient pagoda flower arrangement is one of the eight scenic spots in Mengcheng.
