It is also called "Three Famous Buildings in the South of the Yangtze River" with the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuchang and Wang Tengting in Nanchang. Since ancient times, it has been called "the first floor in the world".

3. Yellow Crane Tower

The Yellow Crane Tower, located in Wuchang District, Wuhan City, Hubei Province, is located at the top of the Snake Mountain and close to the Yangtze River. It is known as "the first floor in the world" and has the reputation of "the first scene in the world". The Yellow Crane Tower was a military building built by Sun Quan of Soochow during the Three Kingdoms period. It was used for observation and garrison, and was rebuilt in later dynasties.

4. mirage

The stork tower was built in the Northern Zhou Dynasty during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Genghis Khan was destroyed in the war when he attacked the Central Plains in the early Yuan Dynasty, leaving only the former site. In the early Ming Dynasty, because of the flood of the Yellow River, the address was also submerged and disappeared. In modern times, the project of rebuilding the mirage has been put forward. It was not until 2002 that the new mirage was rebuilt, but it was not the Gu Lou of that year.

The Customs and Culture of Tengwangge

In the ancient custom of China, densely populated areas need geomantic architecture, which is generally the highest landmark building in the area, gathering the aura of heaven and earth and absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, commonly known as "writing peak".

Wang Tengting, located on the Ganshui River, was praised as a "pen" by the ancients. The ancients said, "Go to Wanshou Palace for wealth and Wang Teng Pavilion for happiness". It can be seen that the Wang Teng Pavilion occupies a sacred position in the eyes of the world, and all previous dynasties have attached great importance to and protected it.

At the same time, Tengwangge is also a place to store ancient classics and historical books, and in a sense, it is an ancient library. Feudal literati also liked to greet and entertain guests here. Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, that is, your son of heaven, once defeated Chen Youliang in the Poyang Lake War, held a banquet in the pavilion and ordered the ministers and scholars to compose poems and watch the lights.
