The experience was very good. The tour guide was very professional and patient. He did not shorten the explanation due to time constraints and was able to cater to the needs of different age groups. The children were very happy and enjoyed themselves.
The Terracotta Army of Qin Shi Huang unfolds like a scroll of history. The lifelike figures, each in a unique pose, seem to tell the story of the Qin Dynasty. Time has not tarnished their majesty, and they stand quietly, witnessing the rise and fall of dynasties and the vicissitudes of China.

Xi'an City Wall is located in the downtown area of Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. It is a city wall expanded on the basis of Sui and Tang Dynasty. The outline is closed rectangular, with a wall height of 12 meters, a top width of 12 to 14 meters, a bottom width of 15 to 18 meters , and a total circumference of 13.74 kilometers. The main body of the existing city wall was built during the Ming and Hongwu years (1370-1378), and was listed as the first batch of key cultural relics protection units in 1961, and is also the only ancient city building on the list.
Once you enter Chang'an, you'll gaze upon a thousand years. Standing atop the city wall, touching the ancient bricks and stones, you feel as if you can touch the veins of history. The wall's architecture and ancillary facilities demonstrate the wisdom and defensive strategies of the ancients. The wall has witnessed the rise and fall of Xi'an, leaving one with a sense of the vicissitudes of history.

I have watched the performances of The Longest Day in Chang'an, The Resurrection of the Legion, and The Song of Everlasting Regret. The one with the highest artistry and the best stage lighting is The Song of Everlasting Regret. You must go to see it when you go to Xi'an. Of course, you must book tickets in advance. There are no discounted tickets from other channels.
It definitely exceeded our expectations! From the lighting effects to the actors' costumes, they all incorporated high-tech elements. The actors' dancing skills were also amazing, which made us audiences gasp in amazement! It was amazing!

I bought a combined ticket for the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower. They are very close to each other. You can visit the Bell Tower first, then go from the underground to the Drum Tower on Huimin Street. Next to the Drum Tower is the snack street. There are free stamps on both floors. There are a lot of people on the snack street here, and the lights are bright.
It is very convenient to get to the bell tower. There are not many people. You can go directly from the subway station gate and buy tickets on site. The night view is very beautiful. It was still very cool at night when I went. Standing upstairs, blowing the wind, looking at the bustling streets, staying quietly, it was very comfortable

Visited during the off-peak season before the Chinese 5/1 holidays so it was fairly empty. In fact, aside from a few scenic spots filled with photographers, the broader park was a bit of a sad ghost town.. perhaps it’s pricey for local standards, but makes for an enjoyable sunset stroll. There is a flagship night show that requires extra tickets/payments, but we only learned about it there.
The entire park is beautifully landscaped, offering stunning views both during the day and at night. Many beautiful women, all wearing stunning makeup, come to take photos, adding to the beauty of the Tang Paradise. Evening performances are available, so be sure to book tickets in advance during peak season. Watching a performance on Chuanshan Mountain is a truly unique experience.

The experience of visiting the Shaanxi History Museum was great! Zhang Lixuan's guide explained in particular in detail, and the historical stories behind each cultural relics were martyred. From the meaning of the bronzeware's decoration, to the craft characteristics of Tang Sancai, the explanation is both professional and vivid. Make people instantly cross the millennium Zhang Lixuan tour guide also cleverly combined the poetry dictionary, and combined Shaanxi as the glorious history of the 13th Dynasty as a wonderful picture. The 3-hour explanation is large but not boring. Even the children can hear it fascinated. They really do "let the cultural relics speak", and the heavy history and culture are lively and interesting. It is highly recommended!
Xi'an, an ancient city with a thousand-year history, was once the stage for Shang Yang to implement reforms, and it also witnessed the moment when the Qin Dynasty declined from prosperity. Its name, like a double-edged sword, symbolizes both prosperity and decline. Chang'an, on the other hand, is a witness to the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties. It welcomes envoys and merchants from all over the world with a more open and inclusive attitude. The prosperity of Chang'an City is not only reflected in the hustle and bustle of the market, but also in the writings of poets. The "Xianyang" described by Li Bai actually refers to Chang'an. This mix of place names just reflects the charm of this city-it is both a political center and a cultural holy land.

Experience the charm of the Huanghe by rafting on a sheepskin raft

Shapotou is incredibly fun. It's divided into the Yellow River and Desert areas. The Yellow River area offers cable cars, Fei Huang Teng Da (a zipline ride along the Yellow River), sandboarding, sheepskin rafting, and speedboat rides. The Desert Area offers activities like flying in the desert, surfing cars, and camel rides. It's ideal for adults (under 60) and children over 1.2 meters tall.
The 355 yuan package is a good option, as it covers all the classic attractions.
The sheepskin rafts in Shapotou Scenic Area are really fun. After crossing the bridge, the masters will sing. Masters No. 9, No. 10, and No. 11 even sang a duet together. I recommend going for a ride.

The Chang'an Twelve Hours themed street has won wide acclaim from tourists for its unique immersive experience, rich cultural activities, food and shopping, innovative cultural and tourism integration, and technological empowerment, becoming a new cultural landmark of Xi'an.
It was great, but we went a little late, so we didn't get to try on the Tang suits and take photos. I'll definitely go back if I get a chance. The show was great. I went hungry, but it was so good that I had to eat a quick meal inside. I insisted on finishing the show before heading out for something special. I have to give a double thumbs up to the staff for their dedication and service. My ticket was for two days, so I didn't go back because I was pressed for time. I'll definitely watch the entire show next time.

Very beautiful, experience the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, it is worth seeing, the price of things sold on the pedestrian street of Datang Everbright City is reasonable. It will not be outrageous like other places with high premiums. Follow the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square to the South Square, and then to Datang Everbright City. Great viewing route.
[View] Stepping into Datang City Evernight, it is like falling into the vortex of time and space, and plunged into the prosperous Datang. The imitation of Tang architecture is scattered, and the moth bucket arch is magnificent under the light. [Fun] The street performance is superb, the actors in the "Shengtang Mi Box" are intriguing, and the interaction with tourists is super fun; "Miss No Tumbler" is light and smart, and the smile sweetens the heart. There are also various specialties, the meat sandwich is crispy and fragrant, and the cake is soft and sweet. [Cost-effective] Walk during it, lively and comfortable, really unforgettable!

The Danfeng Palace explanation should be on the hour, but fortunately we only waited for more than ten minutes, and the explanation lasted about an hour. It is better to understand the Daming Palace and its glorious history with the explanation.
Ruins are just ruins, nothing there. I couldn't find the museum I was supposed to visit. Just when I was about to give up, I found a pit. The museum is right down there, underground...
