Porcelain Tower of Nanjing
People's Republic of China
The Porcelain Tower of Nanjing, part of the former Great Bao'en Temple, is a historical site located on the south bank of external Qinhuai River in Nanjing, China. The original pagoda was constructed in the 15th century during the Ming dynasty, and it was mostly destroyed in the 19th century during the Taiping Rebellion. In 2010, Wang Jianlin, a Chinese businessman, donated a billion yuan (US$156 million) to the city of Nanjing for its reconstruction, reported to be the largest single personal donation ever made in China. In December 2015, the modern replica and surrounding park were opened to the public.
