essential information

The white tiger tower is the place where Xue Rengui and Liu Yinghuan met. The pagoda is eight section high and made of brick. The top of the pagoda is a crystal glass gourd. At the north foot of the pagoda is the ancient official driveway (iron footed car). The official road leads to Longmen in the west to Xi'an City, and to Houma City in the East. The wind chime on the pagoda is gentle, and the Millennium sound is still audible today. This bell reminds people never to forget that this is a treasure land of geomantic omen.

Related Legends

There is another legend about the tower built in the Tang Dynasty: when the Fenhe River was flooded, a cart of big wood was salvaged in the flood. The iron footed cart had been silted in the mud pit and could not move forward. Fortunately, Xue Rengui took the initiative to solve the problem, so he drove the car out of the mud pit to solve the problem. Liu Yinghuan, the daughter of Liu Yuanwai, saw the scene in the high embroidery building of her home, but what she saw was not Xue Rengui, but a big white tiger pulling the trapped car forward. Liu Yinghuan's love for Xue Rengui began to germinate and developed into a partner. Later generations built this tower in memory of this allusion, so it is called white tiger tower. There was a memorial tablet under the tower, but it was stolen later.
