Zhangye's Muta Temple is a very small attraction in Zhangye city, said to be a temple, in fact, is a tower in the corner of the square and a Tibetan scripture building behind two buildings. It is said that the tower was built in the northern Zhou Dynasty, and the tower was nine times taller and later destroyed. This was rebuilt during the Republic of China. Because it was already dark when I came here, I could only see the night view. The tower was a combination of stone towers and wooden frames, which looked spectacular, and because the lights at night were playing, it looked really beautiful.

    It is said that in the ancient city of Zhangye, there used to be five towers of gold wood, water and fire, time flows, and now in Zhangye, only two towers of wooden towers and earth towers remain. The wooden tower, located on the west side of the central square of the county seat street in Ganzhou District, was first built in the second year of the emperor. The tower contains a grain of Sherizi when Sakya Nirvana was treasured. The wooden tower was once founded in the Wanshou Temple in the Beizhou period and is the oldest temple recorded in Zhangye's local history. Unfortunately, both the wooden tower and the Wanshou Temple have been damaged in the historical process. Now the nine-story wooden tower that people see is rebuilt after 2000 and opened to tourists to climb the tower. At the top of the tower, people can see the panoramic view of the ancient city of Zhangye.

    The Muta Temple is located in the center of Zhangye, built in the northern Zhou or Sui dynasty, and has a history of at least 1,500 years. At present, the remaining part of the Muta Temple is not large. The biggest name is the wooden tower. There is also a Tibetan Jinglou behind the wooden tower. The surrounding Muta Temple Tower has now become a place for important activities and citizens to relax. The wooden tower has also become the landmark of Zhangye City. But the historical mark is not proven.
