The gate and the column could go well with projected new Chinese forces. Well, when I say "new" I mean pre-imperial, actually....

How tall is that, in real life ?.....Around 20 feet ?

I'm not sure - not an expert in estimating heights and distances. But from the cars, that sounds plausible. They vary in height, anyway.

Is it something that might be sold as a 'touristy' type item in China itself ?

What's the Chinese equivalent of Amazon ?.....Ali Baba's.  :-\

Not something you'd fancy having a go at making ?.......Looks fairly simple ?.....Brass or plastic rod, as the basis ?

Do you use 10 mm or 6 mm scenery in your battles? Otherwise there is the irregular 6mm scenery pack for chinese villages:

I don't care for metal buildings, however; always seem to lose their paint rather fast.
