Yongning Pagoda
The Yongning Pagoda or Yongning Temple (simplified Chinese: 永宁寺; traditional Chinese: 永寧寺; pinyin: Yǒngníng Sì) in Luoyang was one of the tallest buildings of the world from 516 AD to an unknown date. It was built by the Northern Wei in 516 AD, but it does not exist anymore. Some sources suggest that it may have been 147 metres high, which would have made it the tallest building in the world at that time. It was the tallest building in China and the tallest pagoda ever built until the completion of the Tianning Temple (Changzhou). The cause of the destruction is not known, but it may have been destroyed during the Mongol conquest of the Song Dynasty or the Great Shaanxi earthquake.
