What travelers say:

Nanbin Road Bell Tower is located at the intersection of the Yangtze River and Jialing River, next to Ciyun Temple and Qianfo Temple, and echoes Chaotianmen Square and Chongqing Grand Theater across the river, forming an isosceles triangle. The Bell Tower and Square cover an area of nearly 20,000 square meters, which is a good place for citizens to welcome spring and relax. At night, the night view of the two rivers - the quiet flow of the Yangtze River and Jialing River - has a special flavor. Here, you can not only watch the beautiful scenery of the two rivers, but also hear the auspicious bells three times a day. During the Spring Festival, orange floodlights will illuminate the tower body and become a dazzling pearl in the core area of the two rivers and four banks. If you look out from the Nanbin Bell Tower, you will find the Yangtze River and Jialing River intersect here, shaped like the ancient book of the Ba. The clock tower's 4 large clocks with diameters of 3.6 meters and total height of 45.277 meters are not only the tallest independent tower building in the southwest, but also the design has a profound meaning: the first floor height of the tower is6.1 meters, which means the 61st anniversary of the founding of the country; the tower height is 33 meters, which means the 33rd anniversary of reform and opening up; Calculated from the height of the 175 meters river, the height of the lightning rod is 61.8 meters, meaning the time of Chongqing's jurisdiction on June 18, 1997. The whole building is full of the combination of Bayan culture and Kaiyu culture with European methods. The first floor is granite as the bottom plate, with bronze cast Nanbin eight scene reliefs, the tower body is the relief of the big squat water, behind the Xiajiang River, the two sides are Huangge Wandu and the word water night lamp reliefs. The second floor is an inscription containing five Chongqing and double festive content, engraved in ancient Baguo script, showing the long-standing Bayan culture.
