The Xi'an City Wall Scenic Area is located in the central area of ??Xi'an. The existing city wall was built between the seventh and eleventh years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1374-1378). It has a history of more than 600 years and is the most famous in the history of China in the late Middle Ages. It is one of the most complete ancient city wall buildings in China. It is rectangular in shape, with a wall height of 12 meters, a bottom width of 18 meters, a top width of 15 meters, and a total circumference of 13.74 kilometers. There are four city gates: Changle Gate in the east, Ding Gate in the west, Yongning Gate in the south, and Anyuan Gate in the north. It is rectangular in shape, with a wall height of 12 meters, a bottom width of 18 meters, a top width of 15 meters, and a total circumference of 13.74 kilometers.

The Xi'an City Wall was built on the basis of the Tang Imperial City. Completely centered on the "defense" strategic system, the city wall is thicker than it is high and is as stable as a mountain. The top of the wall can be used for sports cars and drills. As early as before the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, when Zhu Yuanzhang conquered Huizhou, a hermit named Zhu Sheng told him that he should "build walls high, accumulate grain extensively, and slowly become king." Zhu Yuanzhang adopted these suggestions. After the country was unified, he ordered all prefectures and counties to build cities universally. Zhu Yuanzhang believed that "the mountains and rivers in the world are the only ones that are safe and secure". It was during this city-building boom that the ancient city wall of Xi'an was expanded on the basis of the old imperial city of the Tang Dynasty, presided over by the governor Pu Ying. After expansion in the Ming Dynasty, the Xi'an City Wall was 12 meters high, 12-14 meters wide at the top, and 15-18 meters wide at the bottom. An enemy tower was built every 120 meters on the city wall, protruding outside the city wall, with the top level with the city wall. This is specially set up for shooting enemies climbing the city. Half of the distance between the enemy towers is just within the effective range of the bow and arrow, making it easy to shoot the attacking enemies from the side. There are 98 enemy towers on the city wall, and enemy towers are built on them.
