The Yellow Crane Tower was built in the second year of the Three Kingdoms period (AD 223). During the Three Kingdoms period, it was just a "military building" in the corner of Xiakou City. After the Jin Dynasty destroyed Wu Dong, the three countries were unified. While losing its military value, the building gradually evolved into a decorative building for official and business trips and banquets. Cui Hao, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote the Yellow Crane Tower, while Li Bai wrote the Yellow Crane Tower to bid farewell to Meng Haoran. Scholars of all ages have left many swan songs here, making the Yellow Crane Tower famous since ancient times.
