The Bell and Drum Tower in Zhangzhou is on the side of the road. It is not far from the Paoen Tower. It should also be a very prosperous area in Zhangzhou City. I heard that the Bell and Drum Tower has been rebuilt several times. Now this is built for more than 100 years. The clock upstairs was still purchased from Siemens at that time.
The exhibition hall is large in size, covering the whole development process of Zhangzhou Laoxu, very comprehensive and detailed!
Just opposite the Baoen Tower. It would be better to take pictures on the front of the Bell and Drum Tower or on the pedestrian bridge. There are many trees blocking it when you approach it, and you can't see it clearly. There are grasses on the Bell and Drum upstairs. I don't know how many years it has, but the surrounding area is very lively, there are pedestrian streets, big shopping malls, supermarkets, etc.
This is a place with a historical taste, and the old people in Zhangzhou say that they can see the people they want at a good time when they hear the bells.
