Bell and Drum Tower, a symbol of Chinese culture, is suitable for going at night, but the Drum Tower does not have lights on, but there are local young people's bands and skateboard enthusiasts in the corner of the square. This is also a symbol of urban vitality. Thanks to the Communist Party leadership, the wealth and culture of the country will be uniformly developed.
Among the many landmark buildings in Ningxia, Yinchuan Drum Tower is undoubtedly the thickest one. Not only because it was built for a long time, but also because the first party organization of the Communist Party of Ningxia here was established, the "Special Branch of the Communist Party of Ningxia", the office address of the branch was located in the northeast corner of the bell and drum tower, and the revolutionary fires have since taken root in Ningxia.
The Drum Tower was built in the Qingdao Light Year (1821) at the intersection of Cross Road, also known as the "Cross Drum Tower" and "Four Drum Tower", close to Yuhuang Pavilion and Xinhua Street Pedestrian Street. The platform is a 3-story pavilion on the top of the cross-shaped hill. The platform is a cave-shaped cross passage, which is connected to Jiefang East Street and Gulou North and South Street. The cave door has stone inscriptions, the east is "Yingen", the south is "lai", the west is "sweet", and the north is "arch pole".
Yesterday afternoon, I went to Yinchuan and lived in the Gulou Jinjiang Inn Pedestrian Street. As soon as I got my luggage to the room, I went to the Gulou to see it. I felt pretty good, the scenery was beautiful, no tickets were needed, the price was high, and the surrounding facilities were complete.
