Gansu - Jiuquan Every bell and drum tower is the guardian of time in the ancient city

In the eyes of the older generation, they represent the highest point of the city in their memories.

When boasting to outsiders, they inevitably exaggerate and call it 'half still in the sky'. For the elders, the weather-beaten bell and drum tower records the stories of their youthful recklessness. So do you know how many drum towers there are in China?
