Square tower that is, "Xing Sheng Jiao Temple", as a result of the tower while Shengjiao Hing Temple named after. It stands in the center of the park, park on the north shore of the lake, was built in Xining Yuanyou years of the Northern Song Dynasty (1068 ~ 1094), 900 years ago. 42.65 m high tower, a total of 9 layers of the Tang Dynasty copy Zhuanta made of square-shaped, so-called side . Side for the brick tower, pavilion-style, brick wall are the bottom of each 6 meters wide, are built around the gallery Wai, floor by floor over to contract, brick by brick wall are divided into three columns, is located between the pot door for Side room, wooden ladder was set up to connect at all levels. Fu Pen is at the top of the tower, which is round, composed of Aquarius as high as eight meters in Tasha, a 4 iron From the steeple to the ninth floor of the trailer Yanjiao, as the cable winds and waves.

This construction is prohibited, because the structure of construction (brick, stone materials, and other companies) are not allowed to have a folder of wood, because wood can cause perishable building Loose. But the tower to retain all of the wood (refers to the original Song Dynasty), no moth-eaten and decadent, did not even termites, it is a miracle. (Renovation of the square tower, a Japanese professor, to see the wood decay deeply surprised that it is your ancestors left behind priceless.) War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese army In the side bomb exploded next to the tower, but did not blow up the tower side, which is a miracle.

Is this is the ancestors of the tower under construction when they neglect to do? In fact, this reflects the wisdom of the ancient craftsmen. Songjiang because the sea to the east, south-east wind in the summer, typhoons More, so Taki conscious tilt to the southeast. The Northern Song Shen Kuo in his "Dream Pool Essays" in his book, wrote a story, said there was a tower made the old craftsmen, old age, he made such a tower, we do not understand, ask him why he wants to build this This tower? He said: "We are these people Less than, the tower in two hundred years later, it will become a straight tower, and will never be a tilt. "This shows that the side with the old tower built by a carpenter on the same tower, in a study of the local meteorology, geology, as well as the pyramid, materials, production, and so on the basis of the results of a series of built up, so we can see Tower Block, the value of a major.
