Photos of Yueyang Tower

The Yueyang Tower is located in Yueyang City, Hunan Province. Near the shore of Dongting Lake, the Pavilion is one of the Three Great Towers of Jiangnan. It was made famous by the author Fan Zhongyan’s Memorial to Yueyang Tower. When you climb the tower, you will overlook the misty and watery expanse of Dongting Lake. If you are familiar with Fan's Memorial to Yueyang Tower, one of its famous lines may echo in your ears: “First be concerned with the worries of the world and then you can rejoice in its joys.” In addition to climbing the tower to gaze into the distance and reflect on ancient times, the architectural structure of the tower itself is also worth a look. The entire structure is built without a single metal nail or support beam.
