Climbing to the top of the Stork Tower, one can gaze at the Yellow River where the water meets the sky, and the expansive view instantly relaxes the mind; going downstairs, touching the ancient bricks and listening to the sound of the copper bells on the eaves in the wind, one is overwhelmed by a sense of history.

Climbing to the top of the Stork Tower, one can gaze at the Yellow River where the water meets the sky, and the expansive view instantly relaxes the mind; going downstairs, touching the ancient bricks and listening to the sound of the copper bells on the eaves in the wind, one is overwhelmed by a sense of history.

The Guanque Tower Scenic Area is located in Puzhou Town, Yongji City, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province. It is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction. It was built in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. It was originally a military watchtower. It was named because storks sometimes perched on it. After being rebuilt in the Tang and Song dynasties, the building is magnificent and is a good place to climb and enjoy the scenery. Literati and poets of all dynasties climbed up to express their feelings and left many poems. Among them, Wang Zhihuan's "Climbing the Guanque Tower" can be called a masterpiece of all ages. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by war in the early Yuan Dynasty. Reconstruction began in 1997 and was completed and opened in 2002. The rebuilt Guanque Tower achieved the artistic effect of "restoring the old as it was" and won the China Civil Engineering Zhan Tianyou Award and the China Construction Engineering Lu Ban Award. The architectural style adopts the Tang Dynasty colored painting art. The exterior has four eaves and three floors, the base has three floors, and the building has six floors, with a total height of 73.9 meters. The cultural furnishings in the building show the heritage of the 5,000-year Yellow River culture. With the main body of Guanque Tower as the center, it is divided into four tourist areas, including the famous tower tourist area, the Yellow River style tourist area, the landscape tourist area and the recreational tourist area. The scenic area will hold various cultural activities, such as the Ancient Chinese Fire Festival during the Spring Festival and the May Day Outing Cultural Festival. Address: 150 meters south of County Road 852, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province. Ticket price: 54 yuan for full ticket and 27 yuan for half ticket in the peak season (April 1-October 31); 45 yuan for full ticket and 23 yuan for half ticket in the off-season (November 1-March 31). Elderly people over 60 years old, children under 6 years old or under 1.2 meters in height, active military personnel, and disabled people can enter the park for free or at half price. Opening hours: 8:30-18:00 in the peak season and 9:00-17:00 in the off-season.

[Scenery] The sun sets behind the mountains, and the Yellow River flows into the sea. If you want to see a thousand miles away, go up to a higher floor. This is the most beautiful poem written by Wang Zhihuan of the Tang Dynasty here in the Guanque Tower. The Guanque Tower is located in Puzhou Town, Yongji City, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province. The building we see now was rebuilt in 2002. Although it looks spectacular, I think it no longer has that ancient charm. [Fun] The Guanque Tower is a high-platform cross-hipped roof pavilion with 3 floors and 4 eaves on the outside, 9 floors of usable space inside, and elevators and stairs to organize vertical transportation. The entire pavilion is divided into two parts: the base and the building body. The total height is 73.9 meters. It is the tallest of the four famous towers and the more exquisite of the Chinese imitation towers. The overall look is still quite tall and grand. In addition, it is not far from the Yellow River, and the square next to the building group is also relatively large. [Cost-effectiveness] The ticket price here is only 40 yuan, which is the lowest price among the four famous towers. Therefore, although it is newly built, it is worth visiting to learn about it.

1. The Guanque Tower is a fake building, not worth a visit! The four famous towers in China, Guanque Tower, Tengwang Pavilion, Yellow Crane Tower, and Yueyang Tower were all rebuilt in modern times, so don't pay attention to this. It was first built in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and was originally named Yunqi Tower. Because storks often perched on it, it was changed to Guanque Tower. However, the original building was burned down due to war in the Jin Dynasty, and then the Yellow River flooded, and the site was difficult to find. This new building was opened to the public on October 1, 2002 and is considered the newest of the four famous towers. 2. The ticket for the Guanque Tower is 54 yuan, not worth a visit! If you have a Yuncheng annual ticket, you must come here to take a look If you want to feel the feeling of going to the next level, you must come here to take a look If you love to check in and take pictures, in the corner in front of the building, open the wide angle, you can definitely take a picture of your long legs and the four famous towers 3. The Guanque Tower is inconvenient to transport, not worth a visit! At present, Yuncheng's transportation is very convenient in Shanxi. The Zhongtiao Mountain through train can go directly to the scenic spot. If the water train is added, the Yongji line will be very perfect. Take the 8165 train to experience the water train, and then take the Zhongtiao Mountain tourist through train to Puji Temple, the Yellow River Iron Bull, Guanque Tower and other scenic spots, and finally return to Yongji North Station or Zhongtiao Mountain. 4. Guanque Tower is so good, there is no pit? There is a pit! There is a shuttle bus in the scenic area, and you don’t need to take it at all. During holidays such as Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, either come early or come late. Don’t queue up for the elevator. Walk to the top floor. It is not only the best choice, but also you can feel the feeling of wanting to see thousands of miles away and going to a higher level.
