Ningbo Drum Tower (Gu Lou) is located in the Gu Lou part of the city. The Gu Lou part of any city in China was the “drum” neighborhood. This was the way to tell the time in the past. Interesting Drum tower architecture and surrounding streets with vivid markets and cozy atmosphere for a walk are tourists favorite spots. Numerous inexpensive specialty gift shops around the Drum Tower are the best place to buy souvenirs and presents in Ningbo. Gu Lou and the Ningbo Drum Tois reachable via the Subway stop with the same name.
