In order to thank her for her kindness, a Taoist priest drew a crane on the wall before leaving and told it to come down and dance for fun. From then on, the house was filled with guests and business was booming. Ten years later, the Taoist priest came back and played the flute. The Taoist priest climbed onto the yellow crane and went up to the sky. In order to commemorate the immortal man who helped her get rich, Mrs. Xin built a tower on the site and named it Yellow Crane Tower.

When the new Yellow Crane Tower is completed, it is natural that its magnificence will inspire people. There are many touching legends about the Yellow Crane Tower. One of the legends is that a man named Fei Wei became an immortal by cultivating in the Yellow Crane Mountain, and then ascended to heaven on a yellow crane. Later, in memory of Fei Wei, people built a Yellow Crane Tower on Yellow Crane Mountain.

Cui Hao's poem is related to this. The poem goes: People in the past have gone by Yellow Crane, and the Yellow Crane Tower is empty here. The yellow crane is gone and never returns, and the white clouds last for thousands of years. Qingchuan is full of Hanyang trees, and the grass is luxuriant and Parrot Island is green. Where is the hometown gate at sunset? The misty waves on the river make people sad. The ancient Yellow Crane Tower has three floors, with a total height of 9 feet and 2 feet, and a copper roof of 7 feet, making it ninety-nine. The new building is much more majestic, with 5 floors and a 5-meter-high gourd-shaped roof. The maximum height is 51.4 meters, which is nearly 20 meters higher than the old building. The ground floor of the old building is 15 meters wide, while the ground floor of the new building is 30 meters wide. Therefore, the Yellow Crane Tower is not restored but rebuilt. It retains some features of the ancient building, but is more designed based on current needs and changes in people's aesthetic views.

In February 1927, Mao Zedong came to Wuchang after inspecting the peasant movement in Hunan and wrote the famous "Bodhisattva Ascends the Yellow Crane Tower": Nine sects flowed into China, sinking from north to south. The mist and rain are vast, and turtles and snakes lock the river. Where does Huang He know where to go? There are still tourist places left.

When the Wuchang Approach Bridge of the Yangtze River Bridge was built in 1957, the old site of the Yellow Crane Tower was occupied. Today, the rebuilt Yellow Crane Tower is on the Sheshan Mountain Ridge about 1 kilometer away from the old site. The building has five floors and is 50.4 meters high. It has a pointed roof and overhanging eaves, making it look like one in all directions. There are also Shengxiang Pagoda, Stele Corridor, Mountain Gate and other buildings around the main building. The entire building has a unique national style. Inside the Yellow Crane Tower, the styles vary from layer to layer. The ground floor is a tall and spacious hall, with a caisson in the middle that is more than 10 meters high. On the front wall is a huge ceramic mural of white clouds and yellow cranes, and 7-meter-long couplets hung on the columns on both sides: The refreshing air comes from the west, the clouds and mist sweep away the sky and the earth shakes. ; The great river flows eastward, and its waves wash away the sorrows of the past and present. On the front wall of the hall on the second floor, there is a marble-engraved "The Story of the Yellow Crane Tower" written by Yan Boyin of the Tang Dynasty. It describes the rise and fall of the Yellow Crane Tower and anecdotes about famous people. There are two murals on both sides of the story, one of which is about Sun Quan.

The Tang Dynasty writer Yan Boli described the towering structure in his "Yellow Crane Tower", leaning on the Han River above and facing the river below... It can be said: dangerous and noble! No wonder Li Bai described the yellow crane as the moon in the west tower and his love for thousands of miles along the Yangtze River. The spring breeze is thirty degrees, and I remember the city of Wuchang. It's hard to say goodbye to you, but I hold the cup in my hand without pouring it.

I have music in Canglang, sending messages and singing. Express your feelings.

There is a poem on the mural on the main floor of Yellow Crane Tower "Farewell to Meng Haoran in Guangling": The old friend bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks descended from Yangzhou in March.

This poem has also become a quatrain in chanting the Yellow Crane Tower.

Jia Dao's "Yellow Crane Tower" has high sills and dangerous eaves, as if they are flying, and the lonely clouds and wild water are lingering. The green mountains will remain the same forever. When will the Yellow Crane go and not return? The shore reflects half of the city of Xizhou, and the trees in Nanpu are about to fade away in the smoke. It must be known that Yu Ke has no reason to see, and the empty messenger looks at Luo Hui affectionately!

The Song Dynasty asked Han Guang that there was no distinction between heaven and earth, and the boat was like an immortal. The clear river spends the warm day, and the yellow crane makes clear smoke.

When will Yue Fei ask for a tassel to carry a sharp brigade and cross the Qinghe River and Luo River with a whip? But he returned and continued his tour of Hanyang, crossing the Yellow Crane.

How late did Lu You return to Canglong Quejiao? He was so drunk in the Yellow Crane Tower that he didn’t know. The Han River exchanges waves are faint, and the relics of the Jin and Tang Dynasties are scattered.

Fan Chengda plays the Mid-Autumn Festival with his flute, and the Yellow Crane returns to catch up on old travels. The Han tree is full of love across the North Dipper, and the Shu River is speechless embracing the South Tower.

Bai Juyi's Chu thoughts are vague, the clouds are cold, and the business sounds are clear and orchestral in autumn. White flowers splash in Toutuo Temple, and Parrot Island is caged in red leaves.

Liu Yuxi felt suspicious in his dream, and the boat suddenly traveled thousands of miles. The Yellow Crane Tower is missing, but the cold sand and snow look similar.
