The tower consists of 5 storeys and reaches a height of 52 metres. From afar, it looks as if a crane is about to lift off with its wings...from any angle you choose to view it. It is considered one of the most spectacular of ancient towers anywhere in China.

Hitting the bell brings good fortune. And so is writing about it !

During the 3 Kingdom period ( San Guo ), the 3 famous warriors Liu Bei, Kuan Yu and Zhang Fei met under the peach blossom tree and swore forever to be blood brothers henceforth. They
became heroes and stuff of legends.
Here we have 3 modern ladies to do a re-enactment
of that famous episode....but under the bamboo clump!
