The ancient city of Wubao was built in the Northern Han Dynasty (95 1-957). It is an ancient stone city on a mountain 4 kilometers north of wubu county. The city walls are made of stone, the city gates are made of stone, and the houses are also caves made of masonry. The ancient city is very small, occupying such a hill, and below it is the Yellow River. There is no such thing as being rich or expensive. Everything is ordinary and even humble. All the houses here have yards, and the walls are made of rubble, enclosing a small yard and separating short and narrow paths. Years have turned some homes into ruins, some have been slightly repaired and still inhabited, but almost all of them are old people. Now only they stay in this ancient city.
There are two earth temples and some statues in the ancient city. Although the reconstruction time is not long, it has local characteristics, unlike some other places. Many jujube trees have been planted outside the ancient city, which is the economic source of people in the ancient city.
