The earliest Xi'an City Wall had only four gates in the east, west, north and south. Later, with the changes of times, it was gradually opened into eighteen gates. There is a city gate on the south side of Xi'an City Wall called Jianguomen. It carries the profound historical story of Xi'an and is also the place with the most flavor of life in Xi'an. This is the place at the foot of the Xi'an City Wall with the most "market charm". From morning to night, Xi'an Jianguomen Under the gate is always very lively.

Colorful hanging cloth hangs on the doors of shops facing the street, old bookstores, creative coffee shops, toy stores, handmade shops... All kinds of weird shops can be seen here, and it has now become a holy place for young people to take photos and check in.

After the transformation, the vegetable market now has a simple overall layout and a clean and sanitary environment. It is a good place for surrounding residents to buy vegetables every day. Historically, Jianguo Road corresponding to Jianguomen was once called Xiaocha City. In Shaanxi dialect,"Chai" sounds like "dish". In the Qing Dynasty, this place and Dacha City not far away were actually vegetable markets.

The Huancheng Park, which is separated by a wall from Shuncheng Lane, fills the city wall with laughter and laughter day and night. It is home to old artists who like to listen to the opera Qin Opera, chess enthusiasts who can sit all day at a time, and children who laugh and play., athletes who dance to the music... This is a representative of the slow-paced life in the city. People who come to the Ring Park can enjoy life here to the fullest. The ancient city wall makes this a unique park landscape in Shaanxi.
