Zhenhai Tower was originally built in 1380, during the early years of the Ming Dynasty. For many centuries the tower marked the highest spot in Guangzhou and allowed to oversee ships coming up the Pearl River from the sea. Also it was the first merchant ships arriving would see from Guangzhou and ensured they arrived where intended.
Today it forms part of the Guangzhou Museum.
