What travelers say:

In ancient times, cities basically existed in the form of city pools, and the Drum Tower was the basic building of the city. One was the time reporting and the other was the alarm function. The Drum Tower in Yinchuan was originally built as an alarm. Daming Hongwu for nine years, Geng Zhongxuan's northwest side, founded Ningxia Wei, and when he rebuilt Ningxia Town (Yinchuan City), at the highest point in the city (now the location), it was also the center point and also built the Drum Tower. From the day of the construction and completion of the Drum Tower, it has experienced many ordeals. It can be said that it has been repeatedly built and destroyed. It has experienced many chaos and disasters in Yinchuan City, such as the chaos of the Anhua king, the battle of Wanli, the three-year earthquake in Qianlong, the chaos of the same year, etc. It is also a witness to the storm and vicissitudes of Yinchuan City.
