MoreThe Bell and Drum Tower is located at the northern end of the north-south central axis of Beijing. As the time-reporting center of the capitals of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, it is one of the landmark buildings in the ancient capital of Beijing and has a long history. The Bell and Drum Tower consists of two buildings, the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower. The ancient Chinese Bell and Drum Tower originated in the Han Dynasty. According to historical records, in the Han Dynasty, there was a system of morning drums and evening bells that "beat drums in the morning to rouse people, and ringing bells at night to rouse people's breath". The Bell and Drum Tower in Beijing was built in the Yuan Dynasty. In the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, as the time-reporting center at that time, the Drum Tower was equipped with a drum, the bell tower hung a bell, and the "morning bell and evening drum" followed the rhythm. Until now, there are still drumming performances to watch here every day. There are 3-4 performances each about an hour in the morning and afternoon. The drums are deafening and majestic. At night, the lights of the bell and drum towers are lit up in the night, which is more antique and beautiful.

Drum Tower shape is thick, bell tower shape is upright, the giant copper clock cast during the Ming Yongle years is well preserved.
Since you are in the Drum Tower, the Bell Tower should also go up and see. The Drum Tower will hit the drum at the hour, and the Bell Tower will not ring the bell at the moment. In ancient Chinese cities, the Bell and Drum Tower often shouldered the responsibility of establishing space and time order.

Bell and Drum Tower is the northernmost part of Beijing's central axis. The first floor is the Bell and Drum Tower Exhibition.
Going to the central axis, the weather is strong today and the scenery is spectacular. The visit time is not long, you have to climb high stairs, and you need to pay attention to safety when you go downstairs. The only bad thing is that the side is blocked and you can only see it in the direction of the south gate.
