The choice of Nanjing Zhonglou Drum Tower in the Ming Dynasty also has a mystery. They are roughly equal to Chaoyangmen (Zhongshan Gate), Yinmen, Jubao Gate (Zhonghua Gate), etc., can be considered at the center of the city at the time. It can be seen that the head of the Nanjing Drum Tower in the Ming Dynasty is actually due to the shape of the Nanjing City Wall.
