Along there are majestic Buddha statues scattered throughout the campus.

The tower has a two-storey structure, the upper floor worships Buddha, the lower floor is for visitors. The space inside the pagoda is mysterious, the four surfaces have unique patterns handcrafted from billions of seashells and snail shells; creating a unique and new look, but still containing the inherent peacefulness and sacredness of temples.

The heart of Bao Tich tower is concentrically circular. The tower's dome is conical in shape and is inlaid with colorful snail shell patterns. Entering the tower, looking up, you will feel as if you are in the middle of a giant snail shell
