Live Your Best Lives
The Tiananmen Tower is located at the north end of Tiananmen Square, on the central axis of Beijing. It is one of the most magnificent towers in ancient China and a must-see for every tourist in Beijing. From Tiananmen Square, you can see the towering Tiananmen Tower from afar. When you walk to the foot of the tower, the red tower that you have seen countless times in textbooks and on TV is right within reach.
The interior of the tower is antique, and you can visit the reception room of the past, as well as a graphic exhibition to learn about the evolution of Tiananmen Square in different periods and the important events that have been held here. Many tourists imitate Chairman Mao’s classic waving gesture at the founding ceremony of the People’s Republic of China and take photos here, which gives them a very wonderful sense of time travel and national pride.
It is also worth mentioning that the night view of the Tiananmen Tower is also very beautiful. When the lights come on, the tower lights up the landscape lights, which complement the other buildings in Tiananmen Square and look particularly magnificent.

The best among the kings, it is worth a visit. After 6 years in Beijing, I have been there many times with my family and friends. The solemnity is better than anything else.
After dinner, I walked around for a bit. I needed to go through security check before entering. There were quite a lot of people visiting...
I went there with my family. The tower in the evening was also very beautiful.
The place where the founding ceremony was held, there are many exhibition areas inside the city wall, and the scenery is nice!
The tower is very high and you can only look at it from a distance, you cannot walk into it.
Such a place full of tolerance and culture is a must-go in this life
If you have a chance, you should come and watch the flag raising ceremony and feel it.
The heart of China, everyone should visit it if they have the chance.
A must-go place for Chinese people, must give 5 stars, magnificent and grand
It is a place that every Chinese should visit once.
The scenery of the imperial capital is very beautiful, and it is suitable to go there during the off-season. There will be fewer people before the Spring Festival.
A must-see place in Beijing, I feel awe-inspiring
這因該不是普通遊客能上去的，我上去過看升旗還不錯
It is very wonderful, solemn and majestic. The Forbidden City is inside.
The square does not require tickets, there is security check, and I think an ID card is required, I don’t remember clearly, but there is a ticket for the tower, which is not expensive
The view from upstairs is very good and the view is wide.
Shocking! Solemn! Awesome! I feel so excited. Life is more exciting than clocking in!
This place is on the news every day, but it feels different to actually stand there. I feel proud of my country.
No backpack, no backpack, no backpack.
The core of the motherland, the center of Beijing, no matter where you are from, you must come and see it.
Beautiful, nice scenery, long history, worthy of being the capital
A city tower that is familiar to all Chinese people. You must visit it when you go to Beijing.
My favorite place, I visit it every time I go to Beijing.
I often pass by by car, and I will definitely take a good look when I have the chance.
The symbol of our great motherland. I feel a sense of pride when I come here.
Must-see attractions in Beijing~The picture was taken when I first came to Beijing in July 2016~
I have visited the capital five times, and gained something different every time.
This is a place where almost all Chinese people must take photos when they come here.
It is magnificent and majestic. It is a beautiful place.
I came to Beijing twice. The first time was with my friends and the second time was with my mother. So it is a must-visit place anyway.
I passed by with my family on the way to the Forbidden City and stopped for a while to feel the grandeur of the imperial capital.
Landmark building, long history, Chinese must go~
It is a symbol of our great motherland and you must go and see it.
Without a doubt, go up and feel the country you live in.
It is very spectacular. I feel the greatness of our motherland and feel deeply proud and proud.
It used to be very easy to go there, just climb up to see the square, but now you have to queue for a long time...
A must-see place in Beijing, avoid the peak season
Spectacular. But there are a lot of people. Remember not to go there at noon in summer, as it is too sunny.
This is a must-visit place for foreign friends. I came here once when I was very young and I don't remember anything. I went there again during my graduation trip.
A must-see attraction in Beijing, a place you must visit when you come to Beijing.
The faith in the hearts of the Chinese people has nothing to do with the scenery
Representatives from Beijing, it’s really nice to take photos at night
The heart of our great motherland, I have passed by it countless times, and it is under repair recently.
A must-go place for Chinese people, there is also a National Museum nearby
The iconic building of the capital is worth a visit.
This is China's most anticipated city wall, and I climbed it once a long time ago.
It's nothing, I just think it's good. I just think it's spacious, majestic and domineering.
擠擠擠....沒法，這裡太多故事了，也太具代表性了
I had the honor of climbing the tower in 2017. It is now closed for maintenance. Standing on the tower and looking out, I feel a lot of emotion.
Magnificent, magnificent, our motherland is great'
China's history, China's glory, China's pride, China's heart
Time: I went there as a kid in July 1995. I didn't go there again. Is it under renovation? I'm not sure. I hope to go there again.
The business card of our motherland, the pride of a country, and the dignity of a nation.
A must-see attraction in Beijing. It feels amazing to stand on the city wall and wave your hands.
One of the greatest symbolic buildings in China, a must see.
Beijing is a place you will visit again and again if you visit it once
There is no need to explain this, all Chinese people know it
The queue to go upstairs was so long that I thought it was the queue to go to the Forbidden City. But it turned out to be the queue to go up to the city tower. I decided to watch it from a distance.
It should be good. I didn't have a chance to check it out this time. I will definitely check it out next time~~
There are so many people. No matter what time it is, the view upstairs is still good.
Looking at the national flag raising, I just want to say long live the motherland.
An iconic building in the hearts of Chinese people, a place you must visit in your lifetime!
The unbreakable warmth may be held in Beijing this year
One of the must-see attractions in Beijing ah ah ah ah ah ~
You will pass by here on your way to the Forbidden City. Security check will take time, so it is recommended to leave early.
This is a place that I think everyone would like to come to.
A must-visit place when you come to Beijing to experience the node of modernity and history.
There’s not much to say. As the heart of the heart of the Republic, it always receives the most attention.
Very magnificent, I wonder how the ancients built such a city gate
What else can we say about the central area of China except that it is magnificent.
I've been there a few times, and every time there are so many people, especially now that there is security check.
I just took a look and didn't get to go up, which is a bit regrettable.
The scenery is pleasant and beautiful, it is worth visiting!
The security check line is too long and there are too many people. However, it is a must-see attraction when visiting here. It is not a question of whether it is worth it or not, but you have to come.
If you haven't been there, it's worth a visit.
