There is no better place to view the sea than the second peak, Shannan peak, which is 330 meters high and shaped like a tower. Therefore, it is called "Wanghai tower". You can have a panoramic view of the East and west coasts.
Wanghai tower
Wanghai tower is a famous scenic spot and a landmark building in Taizhou, Jiangsu Province. Located in Fengcheng River Scenic Area (4A level) of Taizhou, it was first built in the second year of shaoding in Southern Song Dynasty, known as "the first building of Jianghuai River". This building has been destroyed many times, most of which were destroyed by war and started in prosperous times. On the eve of new year's day in 2013, President Hu Jintao returned to his hometown Taizhou and boarded Wanghai tower to overlook Taizhou City and observe the river.
Development history
Located in Taizhou Fengcheng River Scenic Area (AAAA level), it was first built in the second year of shaoding in Southern Song Dynasty, known as "the first floor of Jianghuai River". This building has been destroyed many times, most of which were destroyed by war and started in prosperous times. At present, Wanghai tower was rebuilt in 2006. Mr. Fan Jingyi, former director of the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the Ministry of culture, general manager of economic daily and general manager of people's daily, vice chairman of the education, science, culture and Health Committee of the National People's Congress and the 28th sun of fan Zhongyan, wrote the story of rebuilding Wanghai tower. Taizhou was called hailing in ancient times, but now the sea water has retreated far away, and the name of "Wanghai" still exists.
Taizhou Wanghai building was first built in the second year of shaoding in the Southern Song Dynasty, which is 777 years ago. Seven homophonic, even out of three, must contain Providence. This building has been destroyed many times, most of which were destroyed by war and started in prosperous times. It is said that during the reign of Emperor Kangxi, when it was revived, it began with heavy rain and thunder, followed by clear sky and crane flying. People were shocked by this image and thought it was a good omen, so they respected this building more and more. The recent destruction in the early days of the Anti Japanese war was also a disaster of war. It can be seen that the fate of this building is a sign of the rise and fall of the Chinese nation. When the prosperity of the old country reopens, Taizhou is thriving, is there any reason why Wanghai tower should not be rebuilt?
There is Wanghai tower in Taizhou. It's all because local officials live in the village and have lofty aspirations. They are wandering in the mud, but their heart is in the sea. Zhusi tower can also climb up from time to time, look down on the world, and enjoy themselves with extreme eyes. There are not only local people such as Shi Naian, Wang Gen, Zheng Banqiao, Liu Jingting and Mei Lanfang, but also foreigners such as Lu You, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, Yue Fei and Kong Shangren. Moreover, the cassock is like a cloud, the Buddha's name is full of ears, and the eminent monk's great virtue is endless. The higher the sky is, the wider the earth is. Where is this place? It is also called an important platform of Chinese culture.
In the early spring of 1898, Taizhou Municipal government decided to rebuild Wanghai building. The architecture adopts the shape of Song Dynasty, and its scale is strong, its materials are excellent, and its craft is refined, so as to absorb the style of ancient county and the charm of prosperous times. People in Qing Dynasty chanted the poem of Wanghai building: "I can't bear to see the old sunset of hazelnut" and "thousands of households are busy with building one night." Today, the hazel has been removed, the setting sun is not old, new buildings have been built, and thousands of households are busier. Busy in boarding, busy in reception, busy in nostalgia, busy in imagination. It can be said that this building was originally built to look at the sea. Unexpectedly, it was built far and near. Only when the wind, morning and rain came alone, could we know where Taizhou is.
geographical environment
Taizhou is a city of water. Water is the characteristic and soul of Taizhou. Fengcheng River, which has nurtured Taizhou People for generations, is one of the few complete ancient rivers in Jiangsu Province. Along the Fengcheng River, there are more than 30 scenic spots in wanghailou and Taoyuan, which are a collection of Taizhou's history, opera, folk customs and merchants.

On the east side of Taoyuan, the 600 meter long Mashi old street, with black bricks and tiles, shows the ancient streets and alleys of Taizhou from Ming and Qing Dynasties to the Republic of China, with water bags, theatres and bookstores, and the grassroots culture of the ancient city of Taizhou. The scenic spot has been designated as a national AAAA scenic spot.

It adopts the architectural style of Song Dynasty, with a three-story ring corridor in appearance, and its main color is chestnut shell and green gray, which is simple and elegant.

The lines are fluent and beautiful, and the technique of expression is elegant and refined. It keeps the style of harmony with the existing ancient buildings in Taizhou. The site of Taizhou city wall will be restored to its original style and will be rebuilt at the original location of Taizhou ancient city wall. The reconstruction plan of Wanghai building was drafted by Professor Du Baoshun of Southeast University, the designer of Yuejiang building in Nanjing, which is one of the four famous buildings in China.
Ancient city of Song Dynasty

Rebuilding Wanghai tower
Taizhou, an ancient county of Han and Tang Dynasties, is rich in soil, rich in resources and outstanding in people and land. Yu's ancestor fan wenzhenggong was a salt official in Xixi, Taizhou, while Teng Zijing was engaged in wine Fu Poetry for hailing, Taizhou. The meaning of "first worry, then happiness" in the sentence of "gentleman is not alone" is ready to come out. After more than 20 years, Yueyang Tower was published, which made a great sound in the world and a great influence in the hundred dynasties. There is a building in the southeast of Taizhou City, named Wanghai. It was built in the Song Dynasty and is a grand view of a county. Most of the famous sages in the past dynasties sang in harmony here. Therefore, the former people called Si Lou "the lifeblood of Wen Yun in my city", and Xun was not empty language. Since the yuan and Ming Dynasties, there has been a series of wars and disasters, and Si Lou has been built and destroyed many times. Is the rise and fall of the building also related to the prosperity and decline of the country?
In this prosperous age, there is a move to rebuild Wanghai tower. In the autumn of the Gregorian calendar year 2007, the towering first floor is located on the Bank of Fengcheng River in Taizhou. It is connected with Chongxiao on the top and boundless on the bottom. It is filled with floating light and decorated with jade. Its potential is comparable to that of the Yellow Crane Tower and Tengwang Pavilion. It is said to be the first floor of Jianghuai river. The resurgence of Wanghai tower is not only the symbol of "the lifeblood of Cultural Movement" in Taizhou!
On the first floor of Wanghai, you can see far from the fence and think quietly: the sea and sky in ancient times are beyond the scope of today's vision; and the feeling of Wanghai is the same in ancient and modern times. If you look at its surging momentum, you will feel the change of the world trend and think about how to respond to it; if you look at its vastness, you will feel the virtue of nurturing all things and how to respect it; if you look at its absorption of all rivers, you will feel that its capacity is great and how to effect it; if you look at its mysterious depth, you will feel the endless universe and how to treasure it; if you look at its calm, you will feel the vast expanse of water Beauty, and think how to harmony; look at its roaring fury, feel the risk of breaking the bank, and think how to ease. Ho Fu, the purpose of looking at the sea is great. I hope that those who look at the world will have the meaning of reconstructing Si Lou in their imagination. It's for memory.
Scenic food
At present, wanghailou is far away from the sea, and seafood is hard to find. However, Taizhou is a water town on the North Bank of the Yangtze River, a land of fish and rice since ancient times, rich in aquatic products. The old street opposite to wanghailou across the Fengcheng river is an antique food street. It not only has all kinds of Taizhou food, but also has sugar man, flour man, sugar painting and other old businesses. It is a generation's "childhood memory".
