Xi'an City Wall/A great place to go for the Dragon Year Spring Festival Lantern Festival!

The Xi'an City Wall, also known as the Xi'an Ming City Wall, is the largest and best-preserved ancient city wall in China. There are four main gates in the Xi'an city wall: Changle Gate (East Gate), Yongning Gate (South Gate), Anding Gate (West Gate), and Anyuan Gate (North Gate).
