Tianxin Pavilion is a tower in the ancient city of Changsha. The surrounding city wall is the only section of the ancient city wall in Changsha. There is also an archway near Tianxin Pavilion - "Chonglie Gate", which was built in 1946 to commemorate the soldiers who died in the three major battles in Changsha during the Anti Japanese War.
Tianxin Pavilion, located in Tianxin Park, was built in 1746, the 11th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty. The Tianxin Pavilion seen by tourists today was rebuilt in 1983. The main building of Tianxin Pavilion is free of charge (including Tianxin Pavilion and the surrounding ancient city walls), and Tianxin Park is free of charge.
The overall building of Tianxin Pavilion is supported by 46 red painted columns, with chestnut tiles and whitewashed walls. The gray stone foundation is thick and solid. 62 stone lions are carved on the stone railing poles in front of and behind the pavilion, and 32 wind horses and bronze bells are hung on the pavilion, sounding in the wind.
Opposite the Tianxin Pavilion is the Bamboo Slips Museum, which can be visited together.
