Xi'an Bell and Drum Tower

The ancient Chang'an has a long history of 'using bells and drums to tell the morning'. As the saying goes, 'when the night leak is exhausted, the drum sounds, and when the day leak is exhausted, the bell rings', the morning bell and the evening drum are the symbols of ancient Chinese city life. Therefore, when you come to the center of Xi'an, you must see the Ming Dynasty Bell and Drum Tower. The Bell and Drum Towers echo each other, which is spectacular. Tang Dynasty poet Li Xian's poem 'The morning bell and the evening drum do not reach the ears, the bright moon and the lonely cloud always hang the feelings' is a precise description of the two towers. From the Bell and Drum Tower, you can look at the Muslim Street, especially when the night falls, the brightly lit Bell and Drum Tower, as if showing the style of Xi'an, the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties, in front of your eyes
