North of the city
Five kilometres north of Yulin in Yuyang District, Ming Zhenbeitai stands as a fifth-batch national priority protected tower.
Yulin sits in the northern loess highlands that the provincial geography page contrasts with the Guanzhong plain and the southern mountains. Great Wall heritage points include Yulin among five Shaanxi prefectures; Zhenbeitai, a Ming tower north of the city, is listed as a fifth-batch national priority protected site.
