Changlemen, City gate in Beilin District, China.

The Changlemen gate stands as a major entrance point within the Xi'an City Wall, featuring traditional Chinese defensive architecture and stone construction methods.

Built over 600 years ago during the Ming and Qing dynasties, this gate formed an essential part of Xi'an's fortification system measuring 12 meters in height.

The gate represents Chinese military engineering principles and serves as a connection point between the ancient city of Chang'an and modern Xi'an.

Visitors must make online reservations with real names at least 6 days in advance to access the gate and surrounding wall sections.

The structure offers multiple entry points for exploration, with facilities for bicycle rentals and storage services available at nearby visitor centers.
