Qiquan Lake Sayi Beacon Tower
Introduction: This is a beacon tower from the Tang Dynasty, situated on both sides of a dried-up riverbed at the northern foot of the Flaming Mountains, 11 kilometers directly south of Qiquan Lake Railway Station. A small path leads to the site. The Qiquan Lake Sayi Beacon Tower is an important historical relic along the ancient route that crossed the Flaming Mountains. It currently has a trapezoidal shape, divided into upper and lower levels, with left and right chambers on each level. Steps allow access to the upper level, offering a view of the surrounding landscape.
