Xi'an Bell and Drum Tower Square, also known as Shangshusheng Square, is located at the intersection of East, West, South, North and Sitiao Streets, with an area of 60,000 square meters, second only to Beijing's Tiananmen Square. On the east side of the square is the Bell Tower with a history of more than 600 years, and on the west side is the largest Drum Tower in China. In the late 1990s, after the completion of the Bell and Drum Tower Square, the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower were able to see each other. According to research, it used to be the seat of Shangshu Province in the heyday of Tang Dynasty, and it was the high administrative organ that carried out state affairs at that time. The Bell and Drum Tower Square now built is full of green grass, and the lawn is divided into nine longitudes and nine latitudes by stone slabs, which is the chessboard structure of Chang'an neighborhood in Tang Dynasty. On the north side of the square, there are well-known old shops such as "Tongshengxiang", "Defachang" and "Wang Haitang"; and under the square is the Century Jinhua Shopping Center. In addition, there is a musical fountain built on the Bell and Drum Tower Square, which is very beautiful when the night falls and the lights of the square, Bell Tower, and Drum Tower are all on. Even if you don't climb the bell and drum tower, you will have a different feeling if you enjoy the beautiful night view in the square. Many beautiful photos are taken here.
