The ancient city of Weizhou is located on the platform on the south bank of the Huliu River. At present, the south and east walls of the ancient city of Yuzhou have all been demolished. The remaining ones that are better preserved are the northern sections of the North City Wall and West City Wall, which are about 1,600 meters long. The east and west gates have been destroyed, and only the south gate remains. Wanshan Tower and Wenchang Pavilion in the city were restored and rebuilt in 1997. The east, west and south sides of the moat basically exist, and the stone bridge outside the three gates still exists.


According to the records of "Weizhou Zhi", the ancient city of Weizhou has thirteen steps in Zhou Qili, the city wall is three feet five feet high, three gate towers and four corner towers. The building is Jingyang Building, the south gate is Jingxian Gate, the building is Wanshan Building, the west gate is Qingyuan Gate, and the building is Guangyun Building. There are tall and majestic urns outside the three gates. The moat is connected to the inner city by a suspension bridge over the moat, and outside the city is a moat that is more than three feet deep and seven feet wide. There are only three gates in the east, west and south in the city, and there is no north gate. Instead, the Yuhuang Pavilion is built on the north wall. In the city, the four major streets from east to west, south and north are the main lines, forming a symmetrical architectural pattern with Wenchang Pavilion (Drum Tower) and South Gate (Wanshan Tower), and the North and South Streets as the central axis.

Due to historical reasons, the ancient city of Yuzhou suffered some damage, but the style of the ancient city has basically remained unchanged. In addition, there are many government offices, temples, pavilions, and dwellings in the ancient city, and there are still relics of the ancient city of Ming and Qing Dynasties.

In the history of Weizhou, the culture of the Han nationality was the mainstream, but in terms of the shape of the ancient city, it went against the strict requirements of the traditional "ritual system" of the Han nationality.
