The tomb tower of Huaishan Temple, located under the peak of Mount Taishitsu in Dengfeng County, Henan Province, China. Huaishan Temple is a temple that was originally a villa of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and contains the tomb tower of Zen Master Jozo, one of the great monks of the Tang Dynasty. It has an octagonal, double-layered roof made of bricks and a large spire on top. According to the inscription, the Zen master died in the fifth year of Tianbao (746) during the Tang Dynasty, so it is believed to have been built around that time.
