One of the most famous buildings in the old city of Yinchuan is the Drum Tower. It is only one stop away from another famous building, the Yuhuang Pavilion. It is said that the Yuhuang Pavilion was the earliest Drum Tower, and the current Drum Tower was built later. Directly opposite the Drum Tower should be the largest commercial pedestrian street here, and it is said that there is also a night market. Therefore, the old town of Yinchuan is very suitable for walking and experiencing slowly. The radius is no more than three kilometers, and you can feel the local culture and life while walking.

I arrived in Yinchuan yesterday afternoon and stayed at the Jinjiang Inn on the Drum Tower. As soon as I took my luggage to the room, I went to the Drum Tower to have a look.

On the evening of May 2nd, I was going to go shopping in the Xinhua shopping district, but the girl insisted on going out with me, so I simply took her to play. When I arrived at the Drum Tower, I asked the little guy to take pictures as a souvenir. He was very cooperative, and I changed several places in a row. Let me give her Taking pictures, I bought candied haws for her in Ningyuan, and I was reluctant to eat it, so I insisted on saving it for the fat brother to eat together. Watching them grow up, I feel that hard work is nothing! !
