'------------------------------ ★★ Bell Tower of Xi\'an ★★  ------------------------------ The Bell Tower of Xi\'an, built in 1384 during the early Ming Dynasty, is a symbol of the city of Xi\'an and one of the grandest of its kind in China.   The Bell Tower also contains several large bronze-cast bells from the Tang Dynasty.   The tower base is square and it covers an area of 1,377 m².   The Bell Tower, is a stately traditional building, that marks the geographical center of the ancient capital.   From this important landmark extend East, South, West and North Streets, connecting the tower to the East, South, West and North Gates of the City Wall of the Ming Dynasty. ------------------------------ ★★ Xi\'an Drum Tower ★★  ------------------------------ The Drum Tower of Xi\'an, located in the heart of Xi\'an in Shaanxi province of China, along with the Bell Tower is a symbol of the city. Erected in 1380 during the early Ming Dynasty, it stands towering above the city center and offers incredible view of Xi\'an.  The Drum Tower is located northwest of the Bell Tower of Xi\'an, across the Bell and Drum Tower Square. Both of them are called the \'sister buildings\' or \'morning bell and dark drum\'. In ancient China, especially from the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), the drums were used to signal the running of time and on occasion were used as an alarm in emergency situations.  ------------------------------ ★★ Muslim Quarter, Xi\'an ★★  ------------------------------ Just as its name implies, the Muslim Quarter, also known as Huimin Jie in Pingyin, is the hub of the Muslim community in Xi\'an City, Shaanxi Province.   Located to the north of the West Street in the city center, the quarter covers several blocks inhabited by over 20,000 Muslims.   There are about ten mosques in the area of the Muslim Street, among which the Great Mosque in the Huajue Lane is the most famous and popular.  Muslim food and souvenir market is another feature of the area. The Beiyuanmen Muslim Market located just to the north of the Drum Tower is a great choice after the sightseeing in the city center.   About 500 meters (about 547 yards) in length from south to north, the street can be reached through the archway under the Drum Tower.   This street is paved with dark colored stone with green trees providing heavy shade during summer; the buildings on both sides of the street are modeled on the styles of both the Ming (1368-1644) and the Qing Dynasties (1644-1911). Some of the constructions are restaurants; while others are stores. But here there is one thing in common: the owners are all Muslims.  ------------------------------ 0:00 Intro 0:40 Around the Bell Tower 3:28 Around the Drum Tower 6:44 The Muslim food street 30:03 Around the Drum Tower ------------------------------ ★★ Guys, I\'m looking forward to know what you get from the video.★★ ------------------------------ ★★ City Walking Tours ★★ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73R0Ap6ZeZA&list=PLZFifwX1CbmTDWoRS03WAor3wGBX97nxK  If you enjoy my videos, please ★SUBSCRIBE★ my next walk,  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCip2HiAmspOVMeh0yxMcEaA?view_as=subscriber  Love and peace. ------------------------------  #Xi\'an'
