What travelers say:

Linglong Tower is located outside the east gate of Yuanyang County-Plain Demonstration Zone in Jinxinxiang City. It was originally a building in Shanhu Temple, also known as Hui Pagoda, Yan Pagoda, Wenfeng Pagoda, commonly known as Linglong Pagoda. It was built in Chongning, Song Huizong in four years (1105). Ming Shenzong Wanli in 29 years (1601) was rebuilt. A fire in the Qing Dynasty, the whole Shanhu Temple was burned to ashes, but the Linglong Tower was alone. Linglong Tower is the earliest leaning tower in the world, which can be called the "leaning tower nose". According to legend, the Linglong Tower was pulled by Mao Sui (Mao Sui self-referred) with a group of carriages. It is rare to stand up after many earthquakes! Linglong Tower has a history of nearly 1,000 years, but has been given a foreign-style name - "China Pisa Leaning Tower". The Italian Pisa Leaning Tower is famous for its huge tilt angle, which is 3°99′, and deviates from the outer edge of the foundation. In 1983, the relevant departments measured the Linglong Tower's body tilted 3°33′ in the northeast, which is unique in China and the oldest leaning tower found in the world.
