越秀山水塔, Water tower in Yuexiu Mountain, Guangzhou, China.

Yuexiu Mountain Water Tower, also called Guanyin Mountain Water Tower, stands on the western slope of Yuexiu Mountain above Jiefang North Road. Its steel sphere is 14.6 metres tall with an inner diameter of 12.2 metres, holds over 1,100 cubic metres of water, and is painted green. The sphere sits about 70 metres above ground level, on the site of the former Xianggang battery's noon-gun emplacement.

The tower was built in 1931 when Guangzhou was growing rapidly and needed better water supply. Its construction was part of the city's modernization efforts during this expansion period.

The tower shows how Guangzhou used modern technology in the 1930s to supply water to its growing city. Visitors can still see today the practical building style that was needed at the time.

The tower stands on the western slope of Yuexiu Mountain, above Jiefang North Road, on the site of the former Xianggang battery of Guanyin Mountain. It is reached on foot through the park; the green-painted steel sphere is visible from the road below.

The tower stands on the site of the former Xianggang battery on Guanyin Mountain, where a noon cannon was fired. Its steel sphere, 14.6 metres tall with a 12.2-metre inner diameter, was painted green and held over 1,100 cubic metres. It stopped supplying water in early 1998 and was listed as a Guangzhou cultural relic in July 1999.
