Walking on the wall of Xi, I really like it here better.

Walking under the wall of Xi 'an, looking at the wall brick by brick, always makes people feel as if they are wandering in ancient times. I can't help imagining the story that happened here in my mind.

The moat, the gatehouse, the embrasured watchtower, the urn and the main entrance are stacked one after another, making Xi 'an City Wall a solid fortress.

I like walking on the wall like this, walking aimlessly, feeling very special and carefree. Standing here, looking at the people and things around you, seems to have crossed the corridor of history.

Walking along the moat, looking at the calm river around the city wall, green trees and grass make the ancient city look vibrant.

The gatehouse can control the lifting of the suspension bridge. The suspension bridge can be put down during the day, which is convenient for people to pass. Put away the suspension bridge at night, and you can't get into the city if you want. Now only the south gate (Yongning Gate) can see the gatehouse.

The highest point on the wall is the arrow tower, and its function is of course to watch and shoot. There are windows of suitable size everywhere on the wall of the arrow tower, which is convenient for shooting arrows around, and the outer wall of the arrow tower is straight, so it is difficult to shoot arrows in, but it is easy to shoot them out from the inside.

When I first went to the city wall, I still listened to my friends telling the story of Wengcheng vividly. I think the urn, as its name implies, is "catching turtles in a jar" or a trap. When the enemy attacked, they suddenly found themselves locked in a narrow square space, while the defenders on the wall pointed their weapons at them. What a miserable situation!

The door inside the urn is the main entrance, and many golden doornails are neatly arranged on the red door. I learned on the internet that these doornails are called floating nails, which can play a defensive role and effectively prevent fire attack. In ancient times, people plastered mud on doors during wars, and these rafts were used to fix mud. The thicker the float, the thicker the mud can be, and the general fire attack will lose its effect.

There are also turrets standing under the blue sky and white clouds. In ancient times, looking from the tower, such a wide field of vision was to clearly observe the enemy's movements.

There are also enemy platforms and towers, which were used for defense in ancient times. Under the blue sky and white clouds, this exquisite building feels particularly majestic.

Finding a sunny day, strolling on this wall and understanding the ancient wall of Xi 'an is really an unforgettable and yearning thing.

On the east side of the south gate tower of the Xi city wall, there is a Kuixing Tower dedicated to Kuixing, the god in charge of the literary movement. I feel that the colorful decoration of this Kuixing Building is very beautiful, especially at night!

At night, the walls of Xi 'an are more beautiful, brilliant and beautiful against the light!

There are also various activities held in Xi 'an city wall, which really show the wonderful cultural charm of Xi 'an ancient city!

The wall of Xi really likes walking here!
