The Chinese shadow play originated from Guanzhong in the Western Han Dynasty. In order to make more ordinary people feel the wonderful shadow play, Xi'an Museum set up a base of traditional cultural heritage in the Yanyuan Garden in the north gate of Xiaoyan Tower, and set up a stage in the park. A performance master was hired to perform a shadow play for the audience, such as bowls and bowls. In addition to the shadow play, it also displays non-material cultural art such as hand-cut paper and handmade paper umbrellas.

👥 During the performance, the band and the actors are one, presenting a series of moving pictures. From the &quot;front sound&quot; to the &quot;back groove&quot;, each role is indispensable, and together they weave this wonderful art. 👏
🎨 The modeling characteristics of Donglu Shadow Play are even more amazing. It emphasizes the outline of the shape, the interior decoration is subject to the overall image, the flat composition processing, and the simple symbolic symbols all give the shadow play a unique charm. 🎨
📍 If you are also attracted by this charm, you might as well come to Weinan, Shaanxi to find out. Let us feel the charm of this traditional culture together and let our hearts get a real baptism. 🌸

We couldn&#39;t get tickets to the big Shaanxi History Museum so we decided to visit this. Ticket by specific time slot is free to reserve via Trip.com. At the museum, need to exchange to paper tickets (by showing ID, entered during booking).&nbsp;The Museum is in a big park with Small Wild Goose Pagoda and several other scenic buildings (temples, exhibition halls). It&#39;s a lovely park to walk around in. There&#39;s a place to write wishes and ring a bell for anyone interested, We spent time walking around the park before going into the museum. It&#39;s a good and smallish museum, with more artifacts from the around the regions. Captions are in Chinese and English. There are some extra exhibition (3D) which we didn&#39;t go to.The park is a short walk from a few metro stations ; Nanshaomen (near the North Gate) and Tiyuchang (close to the Stadium).&nbsp;If one cannot get tickets to the Shaanxi Museum, this is good enough in my opinion.

Awe-Inspiring Experience at the Terracotta ArmyVisiting the Terracotta Army was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience and absolutely worth every minute. Standing in front of thousands of life-sized clay soldiers, all arranged in precise battle formations, is both overwhelming and fascinating. The scale of the site is far beyond what photos can capture.What impressed me the most is the level of detail &mdash; every warrior has a unique facial expression, hairstyle, and posture. You can really feel the power and ambition of China&rsquo;s first emperor through this incredible masterpiece. Seeing the excavation pits alongside the restoration area also gives great insight into how carefully these artifacts are preserved and studied.The museum is well-organized, spacious, and informative, with clear explanations in English. It can get crowded, but the viewing platforms are well designed, making it easy to explore and take photos.

A Relaxing Walk Through History at Xi&rsquo;an City WallThe Xi&rsquo;an City Wall is one of the best-preserved ancient city walls in China and a wonderful place to experience the city&rsquo;s history at a slower pace. Walking or cycling along the wall offers stunning panoramic views of both the old city and the modern skyline, creating a unique contrast between past and present.The wall is wide, clean, and well maintained, making it very enjoyable even for first-time visitors. Sunset is especially beautiful, and the atmosphere feels peaceful despite being in the city center. Bike rental is easy and affordable, and it&rsquo;s a fun way to explore the entire wall.

Xi'an Bell Tower

The hotel owner was very welcoming and helpful, giving me directions to various attractions. The hotel was nice, clean, and conveniently located inside the Xi&#39;an city wall, right in the city center, very close to attractions like the Bell Tower. It offered excellent value for money. I stayed at this hotel again when I visited Xi&#39;an.

The daytime and nighttime views are both fantastic! 👍🏻 The park offers a variety of activities and is definitely worth a visit. We strolled around before dark and stayed until nightfall &ndash; the nighttime views were absolutely amazing! Next time, we&#39;ll definitely go with friends in a different season! ✌🏻
