Characteristics of Bell Tower in Beijing Bell and Drum Tower
When the ancient copperplate prints were timed, the drummer beat the drum to set the watch after hearing the cymbals, and the bell tower rang the bell to tell the time after hearing the drums. This set of scientific procedures for copper engraving, changing drums and striking copper bells systematically provides an important time reference for civil and military officials to go to court and the people's life and work. In the Qing Dynasty, the timepieces were changed to incense, and the strictly customized incense was spiral and burned evenly. A small ball is hung on an accurately calculated scale and connected to a metal plate. When the incense burns to the scale and the ball falls into the plate, remind the drummer to beat the drum.
