ShengjinTower

  First built during the reign of Tianyou in the Tang Dynasty, the ShengjinTower is located on Shengjinta Road. It is said that an iron box was dug up while the tower was being built. In the box there were four bundles of gold ropes, three ancient swords and 300 Buddhist Relics. So it was called the ShengjinTower. It is 58.7 meters high, and its foundation is 33.8 meters in girth. It has seven floors and eight sides. There are carved eaves and verandas on each floor and doors facing each direction. Wooden stairs lead from the ground floor to the sixth floor. On the top of the tower is a gold-plated tripod. It is the highest ancient building in the city.
