Buddhism’s characteristic stupa-and-pagoda architecture follows the spread of the religion into China and elsewhere.
Pagodas grow taller, their number of stories increasing to five in the sixth century.
Emperor Wu of Liang constructs a twelve-story pagoda in 536 that reportedly reaches a height of four hundred feet (one hundred and twenty-two meters).
