The wall has a height of 12 meters (40 feet), a width of 12-14 meters (40-46 feet) at the top, and a thickness of 15-18 meters (50-60 feet) at the bottom. It stretches for 13.7 kilometers (8.5 miles) in length with a deep moat surrounding it. At every 120 meters, there is a rampart that extends from the main wall to defend against enemies climbing up. There are a total of 98 ramparts, each with a sentry building where soldiers could protect the entire wall without exposing themselves to the enemy.
