Bayonglou, Historical tower in Jinhua, China

The tower was built during the Yuan Dynasty when Jinhua received its fortifications in 1352. This period marked a turning point for architectural development across the region.
The tower displays the Wu-school architectural style with large courtyards and symmetrical layouts that reflect traditional Chinese design principles. Visitors can observe these compositional elements as they move through the interior spaces.
