Erected in the front yard of the Daeungjeon Hall (the main hall) at Dorisa Temple*, this pagoda consists of five stories. The bottom story is considered to be the platform supporting the main body of the pagoda, comprising the two middle stories. The core parts of the first and second stories were built by piling up two to three layers of small square stones as if they were built with bricks. The roof stones have a tiered structure as in the style of a stone pagoda, though this was built in imitation of a brick pagoda. It is not clear whether the top two stories are the folded base for the finial, or the lower story belongs to the main body while the upper story is the finial base. This pagoda was built in a unique style compared to other stone pagodas in that the composition of the layers for the core stones and the upper part of the roof stones make it look like a brick pagoda. It is a rare example of a stone pagoda with such a structure, and appears to have been erected during the Goryeo Dynasty. * Dorisa Temple has a connection with Buddhist Monk Ado, the main character of the legend about the introduction of Buddhism to the Silla Dynasty. On the way back from Seorabeol (the old capital of the Silla Dynasty), where he went in order to spread Buddhism, Ado saw a place blooming with pear blossom as well as peach blossom in winter. He built a temple there and named it Dorisa (meaning "the temple of peach and pear"). The exact date of construction is not known, though it is believed to have been the first temple of the Silla Dynasty.
