Yichun Drum Tower

Zhangzhou Yilou, also known as Yichun Drum Tower, is located in the downtown area of Yichun City, Jiangxi Province, Gulou Road Pedestrian Street. The building was built in the second year of Nantang Bao (944), and in the 12 years of Jiading in the Southern Song Dynasty (1219), it was built to integrate the three functions of time measurement, punctuality and timing. The punctuality, time reporting and timing of the tower in Zhangzhou mainly uses "copper pot dripping" to punctuality, time reporting and timing. The time measured is only 20 seconds worse than the "Beijing time" on modern clocks and watches. The discovery of the tower in Zhangzhou has great historical significance and reference value for studying the history of ancient Chinese astronomy.

Built in the Southern Song Dynasty, Yichun Drum Tower is the earliest existing local observatory in the world, it is shining brightly in Chinese astronomy and even in the world astronomy history. It has been preserved for nearly a thousand years, and is located in the middle section of Gulou Road. The 12th year of Jiading in the Southern Song Dynasty (1219) was organized by Zhangzhou Zhifu Qiangshu, and the Drum Tower was also used as a mansion to observe the sky and wait for the report.

The gold frame plaque of the Drum Tower hangs high, the black bottom gold word, and the buildings on both sides are slightly mottled under the brush of time. Follow the steps to the second floor of the Drum Tower, which is an exhibition hall. There are many ancient precision astronomical observation instruments outside, including ground motion instruments, sundials, zodiac longitudes and so on.

宜春鼓楼，位于江西省宜春市中心城区鼓楼路步行街，始建于南唐保大二年（944年），于南宋嘉定十二年（1219年）建成集测时、守时、授时三大功能于一体的地方时间工作天文台。

袁州谯楼又称宜春鼓楼，由主台、南观天台、谯楼北观天台及主台上的谯楼所组成，是集测时、守时、授时三大功能于一体的地方时间工作天文台------坐西向东，雄伟古朴，底蕴深厚，独领风骚！

It was a pity that the Drum Tower did not open the door last time. I hope to open it to the outside world next month.
