The Zhengyangmen Archery Tower reopened to the public, after being closed for over 3 decades, shortly after Beijing's Central Axis was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site on July 27, 2024. As a key structure along the Central Axis, the tower holds historical significance in the city’s imperial layout.
The reopening offers a unique opportunity to explore this landmark and better understand the deep connection between Beijing’s military history and cultural heritage, making it a must-visit for anyone wanting to connect with the city’s rich past.
