The Qiyun Pagoda in Luoyang, Henan, has a long history. Its compound is attached to Baima Temple, which is supposedly the first temple in China. This is an 1165 reconstruction; it is said the original was built of wood in 64 (!) over a "mystical" mound containing a Buddha relic sent by King Ashoka.
