Daguan Lou, Ancient tower in Yibin, China

The Daguan Lou stands at the meeting point of the Yangtze River and Jialing River, displaying traditional Chinese architectural elements with wooden structures and detailed carvings.

Built during the Tang Dynasty between 618 and 907 AD, this tower has remained a central landmark in Yibin through multiple dynasties and historical periods.

Throughout centuries, the tower has drawn numerous poets and scholars who gathered within its walls to compose verses inspired by the surrounding landscape.

The tower opens daily from sunrise to sunset, with guided tours available in Mandarin Chinese, while informational panels provide details in multiple languages.

Located at the precise point where two major Chinese rivers merge, the tower offers views of river traffic patterns that have remained unchanged for over 1000 years.
