The Drum Tower was built in the Southern Dynasties and Five Dynasties, and it has continued to this day, with specific names in different dynasties. Each name has its own specific reasons: Xincheng Garrison, Chaotianmen, Gongbei Building, Laiyuan Building and zhenhai tower.

During the Millennium, the Drum Tower experienced many devastating blows, but every time it was rebuilt, there were inscriptions to commemorate and inform future generations. The last reconstruction was in 200 1 year. In order to improve the city's heritage, Hangzhou decided to rebuild the Drum Tower, which was listed as a key project in Hangzhou that year. Although the drum tower seen at this time is not the original appearance, the charm and charm of the drum tower can already be seen in the antique Ming drum tower style.

Hangzhou Drum Tower, formerly known as Chaotianmen, was renamed Gongbei Tower in the Yuan Dynasty, and zhenhai tower in the eighth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, and replaced drums, leaks, new clocks and other utensils. In the late Qing Dynasty, it was renamed the Drum Tower. The Millennium Drum Tower was once a thoroughfare for Hangzhou people to collect and disseminate information. During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, when the Governor of Hu Zongxian was in charge of military affairs in Zhejiang and Fujian, zhenhai tower was rebuilt. After the building is completed, the owner naturally wants to write a "suicide note", but Juan can't help it, just because Shaoxing touted Xu Wenchang's presence, so he was asked to write a ghost letter. Hu Zongxian was very satisfied with the record and used 220 taels of silver as a fountain pen. At first, Xu Wei dared not accept such a generous reward. When Hu repeatedly said that "I am short of a record, a gentleman is short of a room, and each is in his proper place", he used this reward to "buy ten acres of land in the southeast of the city and build twenty-two rooms ...", thus the "Ivy Bookstore" came into being from scratch, and at the same time, zhenhai tower was completed.

In the third year of Shunzhi, Governor Zhang Cunren confronted the Ming soldiers in Jiajiang. When the war was just around the corner, soldier Zhang Rong went to Jin Fang, a famous astrologer in front of the Drum Tower, to tell his fortune. Jin Fang said: "He was in the army in two dead in early February." According to "Quotations from the Poisonous Insect Temple", "Glory and fear, stealing horses and fleeing, are all obtained by logic. I will tell you the truth. " So Jin Fang was arrested and questioned, and asked him, "You said Zhang Rong should die today. What about yourself? " Jin Fang said, "My life doesn't deserve to die." Ask him again why? Jin Fang went on to say, "The law only requires 30 boards and three months of flogging." Governor Zhang said, "I won't hit you ..." At the same time, Zhang Rong appeared in the gatehouse of the Drum Tower to warn those deserters who forgot their duties.

One day during the Tianshun period, Zhenhai posted a "Seven Wonders" downstairs: "Last night, Bubu and I came by boat, just passing the Lanjiang Evening Fishing Platform. Looking upstairs in Zhejiang today, half a thousand miles seems to fly. " What's going on here? It turns out that just after the provincial examination, it was written by a candidate. He is a native of Dongyang, named Lu Kai, and a literary talent. However, when the examination period approached, he was framed by his enemy and jailed. It was not until the evening of the sixth day of August that he was released. The provincial examination was just around the corner, and he hired a boat to go to the province overnight to catch the examination, and he was admitted. Everyone thought it was the blessing of the gods, so he wrote a poem to express his feelings. This story was later passed down as the story of the Drum Tower.

The Drum Tower was demolished on 1970, but half of the wall is still there. Starting from 200 1.
