Jinshan Pagoda is a municipal cultural relic protection unit, built in 1438, the 3rd year of the reign of Emperor Zhengtong in the Ming Dynasty. It is one of the province's few remaining ancient pagodas. Visitors can look over Lishui from the pagoda.

The stone sculptures in Jinshan Pagoda are full of local characteristics. The whole pagoda, which sits on top of Jinshan Mountain, is constructed with magenta volcanic breccia, which is rare in Zhejiang province.
