"As an architectural form, the pagoda first appeared in India. Arriving in China along with the spread of Buddhism, this special type of structure soon began to take on Chinese characteristics in its form and use, and integrate itself with China's own building style, making it a unique architectural form in ancient Chinese civilization." -Jacket.
