People visit an exhibition inside the Zhengyangmen Archery Tower in Beijing, capital of China, Dec. 26, 2024. Dating back to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), the Zhengyangmen Archery Tower, located along Beijing's central axis, reopened to the public on Thursday. Situated at the southern end of Tian'anmen Square, the Zhengyangmen Gate comprises two structures: the gate tower to the north and the archery tower to the south. The gate highlights the traditional urban management practices of ancient China. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties (1368-1911), the Zhengyangmen Archery Tower was part of a group of gate structures that served both defensive and ceremonial purposes. (Xinhua/Ju Huanzong)
