Linzi (Línzī), originally called Yingqiu, was the capital of the ancient Chinese state of Qi during the Zhou Dynasty (c. 1046–256 BC.) The city was one of the largest and richest in China during the Spring and Autumn Period, and was surrounded by a 14 km perimeter wall of rammed earth.
With occupying Linzi in 221 BC, King Zheng of Qin completed his conquest of the Chinese rival states and declared himself the first emperor of China shortly afterwards.
The ruins of the city lie in modern day Linzi District, Shandong, China. Source: Wikipedia: Ancient Linzi.
