Yibin old state tower, also known as the old state white tower. The tower is a square brick tower with 13 levels of dense eaves, which is in the style of Indo Burmese tower. The murals in the tower have a strong religious color. From the perspective of construction techniques, they have the legacy of ancient local architecture. In 1941, Liang Sicheng, Mo Zongjiang, Liu Dunzhen and other ancient architecture experts inspected and identified it as the architecture of Song Dynasty. The tower is more than 900 years ago. Although it has gone through countless wars, it is well preserved. It stands majestically on the Bank of the Minjiang River. When the sun goes down in the west, the golden waves are shining and thousands of birds return to the forest. It is full of ancient flavor. "Sunset in the old state" has become a scene in Yibin. What's more surprising is that there is no stone foundation for the tower, which is built directly from the congealed pebbles with bricks.
