崇文塔

陝西涇陽

又稱鐵佛寺塔。位於陝西省咸陽市涇陽縣城東南約10公里處的崇文中學,為陝西現存最高的古塔。據塔下碑文記載,明萬曆十九年(1591),李世達主持修建,每年建一層,萬曆三十三年竣工,每層均刻有捐資功德主姓名。清同治元年(1862)寺院被焚,僅存塔與山門。現為陝西省文物保護單位。
 該塔為八角十三層樓閣式磚塔,高83.2公尺,底層邊長9公尺。塔身第一層重檐,南向闢拱券門,額題「崇文寶塔」四字,其餘各面設佛龕。第二層以上每層闢四券門、四佛龕,上下層門、龕依次相錯,龕內供奉佛像一尊;二至十層門、龕旁均設磚雕燈龕。二、四、六層設垂蓮柱,將每面劃分為三間,轉角施磚雕圓柱。層間疊澀出檐,施仿木構椽頭、斗栱、額枋。塔內構造為單壁中空,沿塔內螺旋形磚梯可至塔頂。塔頂上置剎座及銅質寶瓶式塔剎。
