According to historical records, because the Kuixing Tower is not high and satellites are not visible, the local style of writing is depressed and its reputation is not much.
In the thirty-fifth year of Kangxi (1696), in order to revive Fuyang's literary style, Wenfeng Tower was built here. The tower is a brick structure, with seven octagonal floors and a height of 3 1.8 meters ... each floor has a tower-shaped ventricle, and the first floor is a single room. The north gate is the entrance to the stairs, and there is a spiral staircase running through the top. There are four coupon-shaped doors on the first, third, fifth and seventh floors; There are three doors on the second, fourth and sixth floors: south, west and east. The tower is a pavilion-style tower with dense eaves. Each floor of the tower is covered with masts, and the dense eaves are supported by brick-carved arches imitating wood structure. The top ridge is angular, the three-bead sword and the iron five-fork brake lever run through the tip of the sword, and the shape is simple and solemn.
Both Wenfeng Pagoda and Kuixing Pagoda are built in the southeast of the city, which is Fang Xun. "Shan Hai Jing Tu Zan" said: "The land lacks dimension, and the sky lacks dry horns." Fuyang is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. According to the Records of Yingzhou, Mr. Feng Shui thinks that the southeast is hollow, the land is vast and the population is sparse, so it is difficult to produce talents, so it is necessary to build a tower to build a town. Yi Xun said Xun Rufeng: "Xun follows the wind". Rare: "smooth sailing, foolproof." According to Confucianism, Xun is the mansion of articles, and the tower has the shape of a pen. Therefore, it is called "Wenfeng Tower".
Wenfeng Pagoda is not only related to "Wen", but also full of Taoist color. Some brick carvings of this pagoda include longevity deer, ganoderma lucidum, dragon and phoenix, carp yue longmen prayed by literati, and patterns of yin and yang fish. This provides vivid and valuable information for studying people's ideology, aesthetic psychology and Fuyang history at that time. In a word, this kind of tower belongs to the so-called Feng Shui Tower in the old society.
