Tang Dynasty poet Jin Zhaolin once described it: "Gently ascending the steps, riding the long wind, the boundary between heaven and earth seems split midway; ten-zhang railings wind upward in three turns, while myriad households’ lights surround you in a ring. Ascending here is best shared with good companions, and with each breath, one senses a connection to the celestial throne." This echoes the metaphor of "the Way of the Heavenly Heart." It is also renowned as the "No.1 Feng Shui Tower of Langzhong."
