Bang walls surround the four sides of Band in ancient capital cities of East Asia where the Bang system was in operation. There are ongoing research efforts for the structure of a capital city and Bang system around the capital of Silla, but there is a huge shortage of research on Bang walls. This study thus set out to examine Bang walls in the capital of Silla around the Hwangnyongsa Temple and its surroundings. The findings show that the Bang walls in the capital of Silla were built with a mix of earth and stone and with tiled roofs on top. The sizes of Bang walls were distinguished from the walls of individual structure groups inside Bang and closely related to the Bang size and the width of adjacent roads.

The purpose of this study is to examine the standard scale of measuring a block of Kyongju(慶州), the Capital of the Silla Dynasty(B.C.57~A.D.935). Through the study, it is clarified that 1). the block of Kyongju city is planned and divided by using the eight-Zhou-foot(周尺) as a standard scale, which is equivalent to the length of one-bo(보(步); 2). the distance between the center of the streets is around 100 bo and the width of the block is around 90 bo; 3). the distance between the streets is very near to the distance 167.054m of Jing-tian-zhi(井田制), which supports the use of Zhou-foot as a standard scale. As a result, it can be maintained that the city planning of Kyongju is related to that the Jing-tian-zhi of the Zhou Dynasty and the standard scale of measuring a block of Kyongju us executed by using the eight-Zhou-foot standard scale.
