Gusiu Pagoda is located in Baogai Mountain, Shishi City, also known as Longevity Pagoda . It was built in Shaoxing of Southern Song Dynasty and has a history of more than 800 years. Gusiu Pagoda is back to Quanzhou Bay, facing the Taiwan Strait. It is also called Closing Pagoda because it is related to the momentum of locking the water outlet and guarding the southeast. During the Southern Song Dynasty, Quanzhou Port was one of the largest trading ports in the world. Its foreign trade was very prosperous and it had business contacts with more than 70 countries and regions. At that time, Gu-siao Pagoda became a beacon for ships at sea. Gusiu Pagoda covers an area of 325 square meters, 21.65 meters high, and has eight-fifth stories. It is an imitation pavilion-type granite hollow stone pagoda. The first floor has an arch-shaped stone gate in the northwest, and two doors in the second and fifth floors. The corner pillars are plum blossom-shaped and the dome-shaped bucket arches are domed. The tower body shrank from bottom to top layer by layer, each layer of the eaves. There are corridors around the fence and stone steps around the top of the tower. Four characters "Wanshou Pagoda" are inscribed on the forehead of the second floor, and a square stone niche is built on the outer wall of the top floor. Two female statues are carved inside the niche, which is the image of the aunt and sister-in-law. He Qiaoyuan's "Minshu" of the Ming Dynasty also recorded this legend, which shows that the story of Gusiu Pagoda had been circulated as early as the Ming Dynasty. Baogai Mountain is facing the Taiwan Strait with its isolated peaks rising from the ground; Gu'e Pagoda on the top of the mountain is independent and tall. Climbing to the distant view, Spring South shape victory, sea and sky scenery, panoramic view. Gusiu Pagoda became the navigation mark for ships entering and leaving Quanzhou Port and the symbol of overseas Chinese hometown in southern Fujian.

    The mountains of Shishi, the top of Shishi City, are unobstructed. Witness of the history of the Haishan Silk Road. The sea breeze on the top of the mountain is very comfortable, and the attractions are connected to the various attractions under the mountain, a good place to relax and go.

    There is a tourist bus line to the Gurgaon Tower scenic spot in Shishi City, and therefore the unique historical significance. At present, it is a scenic spot with a relatively high cost performance in applying for World Heritage Sites together with Quanzhou's various monuments.
