The main city gates of Xi'an City Wall are four: Changle Gate (East Gate), Yongning Gate (South Gate)

The Xi'an Ming City Wall is located in the central area of Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province, with a wall height of 12 meters, a top width of 12-14 meters, a bottom width of 15-18 meters, and a closed rectangular outline with a circumference of 13.74 kilometers. The area inside the city wall is commonly referred to as the ancient city area, with an area of 11.32 square kilometers. The famous Xi'an Bell and Drum Tower is located in the center of the ancient city area. The main city gates of Xi'an City Wall are four: Changle Gate (East Gate), Yongning Gate (South Gate), Anding Gate (West Gate), and Anyuan Gate (North Gate). These four city gates are also the original city gates of the ancient city wall. Since the Republic of China, in order to facilitate access to the ancient city area, a number of new city gates have been opened, and now there are 18 city gates in Xi'an City Wall. On March 4, 1961, the Xi'an City Wall was announced by the State Council as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units.
