Many poets in Tang Dynasty such as Cen Sen, Du Fu and Gao Shi used to express their strong emotions by writing poems on the pagoda. The poem by Du Fu reads
“Higher up I am flying across the heaven With the howling wind passing along?

The poem by Cen Sen reads:
“As if spouted out of the ground.
The pagoda towers high alone.
Emerging above the common world.
The sheer steps have wound and flown.
Dominating the country around.
Awesome like the work of a demon.
Its four corners screen the sun.
Its seventh storey touches heaven
Bellow, the soaring birds we hear
Bellow, the scary wind we hear.?

“Standing on the top of the pagoda, which shoots into the sky .
For hundreds of meters high,
I can almost reach the stars and the moon
With the stretched hands of mine
For fear of awaking people in the heaven,
I dare not speak loud at night?br> -----------By Li Bai

“Amounting the pagoda
I am astonished by the height.
With the wind blowing around me.
I enjoy the view in delight.
All the palaces appear in front of me,
And all the mountains and rivers within my sight.?br> -----------By Gao Shi

“I am surpassing the gate of the Heaven,
With geese flying under me .
The mountains waving up and low,
And so small the palaces seem to be.?br> ----------By Chu Guangxi

Du Fu excelled all his companions. He recited his poem that marvels others.
“Higher up I am flying across the heaven
With the howling wind passing along.
I can see the dipper stars in the north
And the Milk Way in the west flowing with a song.
I feel as if were Xi He driving the sun a whip in hand
And Shao Hao traveling in the clear autumn I felt so strong
All of a sudden, the Qinling Mountains are out of my sight,
And Jing, Wei Rivers are cut out before long.
With everything merging together in the bird's view,
How can I distinguish the capital town?
