Qujiang Tower

　　Qujiang Tower is situated at No. 219 South Street in Jiangyan City. It got its name because it stands at the curve of the ancient Salt Transport River. During the summer and autumn of 1940, the New Fourth Army advanced eastward to resist the Japanese. In September, the New Fourth Army's Northern Jiangsu Command set up its headquarters at Qujiang Tower, with Commander-in-Chief Chen Yi staying on the upper floor. From there, he strategized and won the political battle before our forces' decisive engagement at Huangqiao, leading to the victory of the "Battle of Huangqiao." Qujiang Tower is an important site on Taizhou's red tourism route.
