It is about 14 kilometers long and is renowned as the best-preserved and longest City Wall in China. The wall measures 12-14 meters wide on the top and 15-18 meters wide at the bottom, with a height of 12 meters. This historical structure not only served as a defensive fortification but also played a significant role in the city's transportation.

After visiting the City Wall, we will drive to the famous Terracotta Warriors Museum. This museum is home to more than 8,000 life-sized terracotta warriors and horses, which were excavated from three burial pits. They were buried to guard the first Chinese emperor in the afterlife, and no historical record mentions their existence. In 1974, a local farmer discovered the underground army while digging a water well, and it has since become known as the eighth wonder of the world.
