Yuci Sifeng Tower
Sifeng Tower is a Song Dynasty structure, featuring a three-story wooden pagoda-style building with triple-tiered octagonal tiers, totaling 24 flying eaves and standing 20 meters tall, exuding great grandeur. The tower gets its name “Sifeng” (meaning “Thinking of the Phoenix”) because from any angle, the eaves appear as if they are adorned with phoenixes ready to take flight. It is a masterpiece of ancient Chinese architectural art, embodying the unique architectural style of northern China.
