what I want to get from software visualization is being able to understand the code base better. But so far I haven't seen any visualization tool can do it.

The most famous code visualization tool is perhaps https://gource.io/

the only information I can get from looking at its results is "projects grow", which is something I can conclude without the visualization.

why is 3d treemap better than looking at folders (2d treemap)?
