A one-minute guide to the iconic building of Jieyang - Jieyang Jinxian Gate

If you visit Jieyang, you must see the iconic building of the ancient city of Jieyang - Jinxian Gate. Built in the first year of the Tianqi era of the Ming Dynasty (1621), it faces east. Named 'Jinxian Gate' because it leads to the Confucian Temple, symbolizing the promotion of virtuous and talented scholars. The city tower is divided into three levels: the lower level is the Wengcheng Gate, grand and magnificent; the middle level is the city tower; the upper level is a glazed pavilion with flying eaves and carved beams, elegant and majestic. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was a place for announcing the time. At dawn, the sound of the morning bugle would drift with the wind, dispelling the morning mist and welcoming the morning glow, heard throughout the city, creating a unique charm. It was once known as 'Jiaolou Morning Bugle' and was listed as one of the eight scenic spots of Jieyang. 📌Location: Xinxing Road, Rongcheng District, Jieyang City. 🕰️Opening hours: Open 24 hours a day, all year round. The night view is even more beautiful. 💰Ticket: 0 yuan, free🆓 ❤️Tips: ⚠️You can't go up to the level where the drum🥁 is placed, but you can go up to the middle level to have a look. 🍛It's very convenient to eat nearby. 🌃There will be lights at night, making it more photogenic. 😍There are cultural and creative stamps of Jinxian Gate, you can get one as a souvenir~
