People made an ideal speculation about the structure and layout of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty's royal city, and drew a restoration map according to the Book of Rites, saying that it was the first carefully planned city in the history of the world. According to ancient documents, there were three doors on each side of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, totaling twelve doors. There is a gate in the south, a sacrifice gate in the north and a tripod gate in the east. Each city gate has three passages, and there are nine jingwei avenues in the city. The palace is built on the central avenue, with the hall in front and the commercial market in the back. There are temples on the right side of the palace, ancestral temples on the left side, and Sanli Mingtang in the south of the city. This is a typical architectural layout in ancient China, which is characterized by "the former dynasty and the later market, the left ancestor and the right society". But this "idealized" layout does not conform to the results of archaeological investigation. According to archaeological findings, the palace community of the core building of Wangcheng is located in the southwest corner of the city, not in the center. The general scope is in the city west of Jiandong Road and south of Kaixuan Road today, and even includes some areas outside the city. Within this range, several large buildings have been discovered. Archaeologists have found the place where pottery was fired in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in the northwest of the city site, speculating that this area may be a handicraft workshop area; In the southwest of the city site, it was also found that the rammed earth foundation site of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was superimposed under the large rammed earth foundation site of the Han Dynasty, which may be related to the palace architecture at that time. Archaeologists have confirmed step by step that the four-walled triangle of Luoyang Eastern Zhou Dynasty is roughly the same as that of Xigong District in Luoyang today. From this section of wall on the ground to the east, pass through the cotton mill and the north side of Chun Qing Road, all the way to the north end of Guanghua Road, to the 80 1 warehouse of Daonan Road, and turn south. The north city wall is straight, with a total length of 2890 meters and a wall width of 8- 10 meters. The east wall starts from 80 1 warehouse in the north, passes through Shang Yi Cadre School and Provincial Construction Third Company in the south, passes through Tanggong Road, passes through Postal Building, passes through Zhongzhou Middle Road, passes through Gong Xuan Building, reaches the east side of Agricultural Bank of China, and the south section is washed away by Luohe. The total length of the east wall is about 3500m, and the wall width is about 15m. The west city wall twists and turns, from the corner to the south, passing through Dongjiangou Village, winding into Wangcheng Park along the river, turning north and west at Jianhe Bridge on Zhongzhou Road, turning south at Rubber Shoes Factory, passing through the west side of Peony Hotel, entering Qilihe Village to the west, passing through huanghe road, turning south at the south yard of Luoyang Jianzhu University, and turning east to the south city wall. The total length of the western wall is more than 3,000 meters, and the width of the wall is about 15 meters. The south wall starts from Luoyang Brick Building South Yard in the west, passes through xinglong village, crosses Dongjiang River in the east, crosses Qujiatun, and is washed by Luohe River in the east, with a residual length of 900 meters and an estimated total length of 3,400 meters. At the same time, large-scale sacrifices or inn-style architectural relics were found outside the city. On the east side of the southwest corner of the building complex and northeast of Qujiatun village, which is the family area of Luoyang monocrystalline silicon factory today, more than 80 grain pits have been excavated since the 1970s, which is the warehouse pit area in Wangcheng site. The northwest corner of the city is a large-scale handicraft workshop area, including pottery kiln, bone making, jade making and stone making workshops. In addition, pottery models for making bronzes have been found, which means the existence of copper workshops. In recent years, cultural relics workers have made a series of important discoveries, including No.27 Middle School 1 Han Tomb, No.2 Han Tomb and No.2 Burial Pit. Among them, 1 bronze tripod engraved with the words "Wang Zuoding" was unearthed from the ""-shaped tomb; A group of tombs in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was found in the northeast of Wangcheng site, including more than 600 tombs and 40 grave pits. It is confirmed that this area is the location of the tomb of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty by unearthed relics such as "Emperor Jia Liu" chariots and horses burial pit. Outside the south wall of the southwest corner of Wangcheng site, a high-standard and large-scale building foundation site in the late Warring States period was discovered. In addition, due to the long history, frequent wars, and the speculation of scholars in previous dynasties, there are many mysteries in the tombs of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and there are different opinions. In order to solve the mystery of the tomb of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, cultural relics and archaeologists began the arduous process of searching for the tomb of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in the 1950s, and achieved phased results. Tombs in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty should be divided into three areas: Wangcheng Mausoleum, Jincun Mausoleum and Zhoushan Mausoleum.

Further archaeological research shows that the wall of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was built in the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period and has been repaired many times from the Warring States Period to the Qin and Han Dynasties. By the late Western Han Dynasty, the whole city began to be abandoned, and then the county seat of Han and Henan was built on this basis. During the Spring and Autumn Period, although the princes competed for hegemony and the royal family declined, the significance of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty as the capital of emperors was incomparable to other capitals. It has been in the center of national politics, economy, culture and transportation for nearly three centuries. The discovery of the ruins of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty provides valuable physical data for studying the politics, economy, culture and the development history of the whole city in the Zhou Dynasty, which is a great harvest of urban archaeology in China and is of great significance. This site is one of the five famous capitals in Luoyang. In order to protect this important city site, Wangcheng Park is built in the central area of this city site and is open to tourists.
