Scholar benefits are here, free entry for those who can recite poems! Regretting not having studied hard

There are always some scenic spots that seem unimpressive when visited, but you feel reluctant not to go. After all, they are landmark attractions, such as the Elephant Trunk Hill in Guilin, the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai, the Canton Tower in Guangzhou, and the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda in Xi'an. What can we do about it——since we're here already. Yellow Crane Tower is also such a place. Since we're here already, we can't just not visit, right? So let's go, and once we've gone, that's that. Haha...... Yellow Crane Tower is a landmark building in Wuhan; it was first built in 223 AD, repeatedly renovated over the dynasties, and the existing building is designed based on the Qing Dynasty's 'Tongzhi Tower', reconstructed in 1985, and became famous worldwide because of the poem 'Yellow Crane Tower' written by the Tang Dynasty poet Cui Hao. Yellow Crane Tower has been known since ancient times as one of the 'most spectacular scenes under heaven', and together with Sunny Hubei Pavilion and Ancient Zither Terrace, it is known as one of the 'three famous scenic spots in Wuhan', and together with Yueyang Tower in Hunan Yueyang and Tengwang Pavilion in Jiangxi Nanchang, it is known as one of the 'three great towers in the south of the Yangtze River'. Location: Special No.1, West Slope of Snake Mountain, Wuchang District, Wuhan City. Transportation routes: Take Wuhan Tram Line 1, Tram Line 4, Bus Line 10, 61, 64, 108, 401, 402 to Yellow Crane Tower Station to arrive.
