Baochu Pagoda is a pagoda in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, China. Known as one of the landmarks of the West Lake, it is located just north of the lake on top of Precious Stone Hill. Its small base supports seven stories and gives it a distinctively slender and elegant appearance.The name Baochu, translated directly, means "protect Chu", which, legend has it, refers to Qian Chu, the last king of Wuyue. As the story goes, one of Qian Chu's ministers had the temple constructed for prayers to be said for his safe return from a trip he had taken to Kaifeng, then under the rule of the Northern Song dynasty, in central China.
