Anshan Village Peace Pagoda Introduction
Appearance of Shigandang: Tower-shaped, Total Height: 5.93 meters, Circumference: 13.88 meters, Construction Type: Conical Shape, Ornament on Top: Gourd. Legend: In Anshan Village, there was once a person with profound magical powers. After this revered sage passed away, the villagers washed his internal organs by the river but accidentally left behind his liver and intestines. These remnants transformed into a turtle and a snake, causing trouble in the village. The residents, unable to bear the disturbances, prayed to the deity at the Anshan North Polar Palace for help. The deity used a magic sword to subdue the troublesome turtle and snake, which became treasures within the tower along with the sword. The Peace Pagoda has also become a landmark of Anshan and serves to bless vessels for safe passage. Source: Oral history from local elders of Anshan Village.
