The drum tower, also known as the city wall of Yuzhou, is located in the center of the ancient city of Yuzhou. It was built in 1381, the 14th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty. It was built by Zhou Fang, the commander of Yuzhou garrison, and rebuilt many times later. In the Qing Dynasty, the drum tower, known as "Wenchang Pavilion", was unfortunately destroyed in the 1940s. The present Drum Tower, which was built in 1997, is a triple eaves, multi angle, tile and glazed cut edge building. It is 17 meters high, nine rooms wide and five rooms deep. The four words "Chuya Shouji" are inlaid on the south side of the city wall, implying "the first state in the west of Beijing". It is an important symbol of the ancient city of Yuzhou.
