A significant incident occurred at the Fengyang Drum Tower in Anhui Province, China, as the roof of this 600-year-old structure partially collapsed, sending tiles crashing down and prompting a scramble among tourists present at the site. This historic building has recently undergone extensive renovations, costing RMB 3.41 million, aimed at preserving its integrity. However, the collapse has sparked serious safety concerns and led to an official investigation into the incident, particularly as it follows a similar occurrence with another ancient drum tower that also fell shortly after restoration. The incidents raise questions about the effectiveness of the repairs and the preservation efforts for such vital cultural landmarks.
