What about the walls of Xi? Is it worth going?

The walls of Xi are very good and worth visiting.

Xi 'an City Wall, also known as Xi 'an Ming City Wall, is the largest and most intact ancient city wall in China. It is the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units and national AAAAA-level tourist attractions. An city wall in a broad sense includes an Tang city wall and an Ming city wall, but generally refers to an Ming city wall in a narrow sense.

The perimeter of Xi 'an City Wall is 13.74 km, including a series of military facilities such as moat, suspension bridge, gatehouse, watchtower, watchtower, parapet and crib. The five-in-one of "wall, river, road and lane" has organically become an important symbol and spiritual home of Xi 'an, an international metropolis with historical and cultural characteristics.

Xi 'an City Wall, Pingyao City Wall, Jingzhou City Wall and Xingcheng City Wall are listed as the four best existing ancient city walls in China. There is a moat around the city wall, and the famous Xi 'an Bell and Drum Tower is located in the center of the city wall.

Visitors can choose to walk or ride bicycles around the city gate. The road on the gate is uneven, so be careful when riding a bike.

——Xi 'an City Wall, the oldest and best-preserved ancient city wall building in the world, continues the historical context of the entire ancient capital Chang 'an, and with its unique charm, it blooms its majesty, grandeur and broadness to the world, showing the world the depth, wisdom and tolerance of the ancient capital.
