北京鼓楼 Beijing Drum Tower

北京鼓楼是坐落在北京市南北中轴线北端的一组古代建筑，位于北京东城区地安门外大街北端。是全国重点文物保护单位。在原有现存的鼓楼中，北京鼓楼是体量最大的（考虑到凤阳鼓楼城楼部分是现代修建的）气势雄伟，巍峨壮观，高度的技术水平和不朽的艺术价值，充分显示出了古代汉族劳动人民的智慧和力量 。北京鼓楼坐北朝南，为重檐三滴水木结构楼阁建筑，通高46.7米。楼身坐落在4米高的砖砌城台之上，东西长约56米，南北宽约33米，体量与法国凯旋门相当。台上四周围以宇墙。钟鼓楼作为元、明、清代都城的报时中心，是古都北京的标志性建筑之一，也是见证中国近百年来历史的重要建筑。

The Drum Tower of Beijing, or Gulou (traditional Chinese: 鼓樓; simplified Chinese: 鼓楼; pinyin: Gǔlóu), is situated at the northern end of the central axis of the Inner City to the north of Di'anmen Street. Originally built for musical reasons, it was later used to announce the time and is now a tourist attraction.
The Drum Tower is a 47-meter (154 ft)-tall two-story building made of wood. The upper story of the building housed 24 drums
The Drum Tower was built in 1272 during the reign of Kublai Khan, at which time it stood at the very heart of the Yuan capital Dadu. At that time it was known as the Tower of Orderly Administration (Qizhenglou). In 1420, under the Yongle Emperor of the Ming dynasty, the building was reconstructed to the east of the original site and in 1800 under the Jiaqing Emperor of the Qing dynasty, large-scale renovations were carried out. Following the Beijing Coup in 1924, Feng Yuxiang removed the official status of the towers, replacing them with western time-keeping methods, and renamed the building "Mingchilou", or the "tower of clarifying shame". Objects related to the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of Beijing and later the May 30 Massacre of 1925 were put on display, turning the towers into a museum. The upper story of the building currently serves as the People's Cultural Hall of the East City District.
