How high, how long and how wide are the walls of Xi?

The length and scale of Xi 'an city wall. Today's Xi 'an ancient city wall was built in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, and it was extended by one third to the east and north on the basis of the original imperial city of Chang 'an in the Tang Dynasty. The total length is 13.74 km, ranking third in the country, second only to Nanjing and Kaifeng. However, its top width, bottom width and height are wider and higher than Kaifeng, because the Kaifeng city wall has not been buried more than three meters underground by yellow sand. I haven't seen it in Nanjing, so I dare not say. Several cars on Xi 'an city wall can be parallel, as endless as a wide road. According to the data, its upper average width is 14m, its lower average width is 18m, and its height is 12m. If the Nanjing City Wall is not higher than Xi 'an, the height and width of Xi 'an City Wall is undoubtedly the first in China.

The restoration age of Xi' an city wall. Although Xi 'an City was dilapidated in the liberation period, its scale was still relatively complete, so it became the first batch of key cultural relics protection units in China as early as 196 1. Its large-scale restoration time was in the 1980s. There are also ancient inscriptions on the walls of Xi 'an, such as "Hu Cang Guan Tao 1984", "Wang Shou of Hu County 1984", "Wang Hushou 1984" and "Hu Cang Shuang Yong 1985". It can be inferred that the big bricks used to repair the Ancheng Wall are mainly produced by brick kilns in Anhu County, and the production time is mostly 1985. However, the large-scale restoration of Xi 'an city wall did not connect the whole city wall. The last time it was connected was in the summer of 2005, and the railway station was several hundred meters long. This section is a section of the whole section that has lost the original appearance of the ancient city wall. Due to the flow of people in the railway station square, it looks like a multi-arch bridge.

Xi' an city wall defects. Today, although it has been repaired several times, the wall of Xi 'an has not been restored to its original appearance in the early Ming Dynasty. Nanmen archway is recorded as 1926 destroyed by war. It should be Yang Hucheng guarding an, and the direct warlord Wu entered Shaanxi from Sanmenxia to besiege an. The North Gate Tower was destroyed in the revolution of 19 1 1. There were few watchtowers in the early days of liberation. Today's watchtowers were all restored several years ago. The two watchtowers next to the north gate actually use reinforced concrete columns instead of cypress and pine columns. Except for the southwest turret, all the surrounding turrets have been completely restored.

Xi' an city wall opening and closing. Xi An City Wall has four gates: Anyuan Gate in the north, Yongning Gate in the south, Anding Gate in the west and Changle Gate in the east. During the Republic of China, in memory of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, Zhongshan Gate, a small east gate, Yuxiang Gate, and a middle gate were added in memory of General Feng Yuxiang 1926 who saved the lives of soldiers and civilians in Xi 'an. After liberation, it was changed to Jiefangmen (now the railway station section), and there is a small south gate in the south. Now it is almost the size of 18 door, extending in all directions. Today, Xi 'an has opened up, and the high-tech zone has attracted so much foreign investment. Their goal is to build a world-class high-tech zone. However, I think the prosperity of Xi is mainly driven by foreign enterprises and talents. Local residents in Xi 'an can wait for others to make their city prosperous without starting to work. But then again, who is Xi 'an? Xi is an immigrant city, so it is not exclusive. Probably the first batch of Xi people can only be those in small dangerous houses within the city walls, and those in the village.

I have been in Xi 'an for several years, but I am far from learning well. But if you don't learn well, you should also feel the history of this city. Three years is also worthwhile. I have been to several landmark buildings in Xi 'an, such as Bell Tower, Drum Tower, City Wall, Big Wild Goose Pagoda and Small Wild Goose Pagoda, and I have also visited eight of the top ten temples. Tourism can increase people's knowledge. The more you visit this city, the more you can feel its greatness. Usually, I pay more attention to the advantages of a city, and then talk about its disadvantages, rather than just looking at my own advantages in domestic city competition, so I am generally comfortable in Xi 'an. If I can stay here in the future, I can not go back to Henan.
