The Wenxing Tower in Xiangyin is an ancient building with the same name as the Confucian Temple in Xiangyin. Wenxing Tower was built in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, located in Bajiao Street in the east of Xiangyin County, and then collapsed. In the fifty years of Qing Qianlong (1785), Li Bing, the magistrate, was rebuilt.
The tower is paved with granite and the top of the slope is closed. The tower height is 3 1m, the tower foundation is 0.84 m, the side length is 4.34 m, and the area is 88.4 square meters. This tower has seven floors and eight directions. Each floor has four staggered arches with overhead eaves. The tower is hollow with 49 stone spiral steps inside. On the first floor, there is a "Hakka Lotus" stone tablet engraved with the inscription of Li Bing, a magistrate of a county. The top brake consists of three pig iron balls. The brake body is connected through the brake lever and supported on the brake seat, and the brake seat is superimposed on the platform at the top of the tower, so that the proportion of the whole tower is very harmonious and beautiful. "Plastic Kuixing is at the top, and the dazzling is strengthened by the wall fence", so the satellite tower is also called "Kuixing Tower".
