jiangsu

苏州报恩寺塔(Pagoda at Bao'en Temple in Suzhou )位于江苏省苏州市内北部偏西报恩寺中(人民路652号),又称北寺塔。塔高9层(76米),占地1.3亩。该塔号称“吴中第一古刹”。1957年被列为江苏省文物保护单位。

报恩寺俗称北寺,是苏州最古老的佛寺,距今已1700多年。始建于三国吴赤乌年间(公元238-251年),相传是孙权母亲吴太夫人舍宅而建,古称通玄寺。唐开元年间(公元713-741年)改为开元寺。五代北周显德年间(公元954-959年)重建,易名为报恩寺。
报恩寺塔是中国楼阁式佛塔,传始建于三国吴,南朝梁(公元502-557年)时建有11层塔,北宋焚;元丰(1078~1085)年间重建为9层,南宋初建炎四年(1130)在宋金战中复毁;南宋绍兴二十三年(公元1153年)改建成八面九层宝塔,现存北寺塔的砖结构塔身就是构筑于当时的原物。塔身的木构部分为清末重修,已不全是原貌。此塔曾刻入南宋绍定四年(1229)的《平江图》碑中。塔正当平江(即今苏州)最主要的南北向大街北端,成为大街的对景。
