The scenic spot is excellent, with a strong cultural atmosphere, and the overall cleanliness is acceptable.
It's truly impressive. However, the only thing I wasn't happy with was the bridge. There's a deliberately designed gap in the middle, and I accidentally fell into it. [Fifth Photo]
The Tang Paradise is indeed beautiful, but it costs 130 yuan for a small place, and 39 yuan for a battery car. It's not fair. The attractions in Xi'an are really unambiguous in charging. It's better in Guangzhou, where basically no tickets are required for attractions, or they are very cheap. They are too kind to tourists.

I highly recommend The Longest Day in Chang'an. The food, drinks, and entertainment options are all pretty good, and the prices aren't expensive. However, you should consider the dress-up shop inside. The prices aren't expensive, but the service is terrible, and they're just a bunch of sloppy stuff. Other than that, everything else is pretty good. The two-day package is definitely a great value! I'll definitely come back next time.
It's warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Every performer and staff member is so warm and welcoming, like Tangren... and they're also very willing to interact with tourists. Plus, the men are incredibly stylish, tall and handsome 😎, and the women are incredibly beautiful and eye-catching! Everyone, come and check it out! It's definitely worth checking out.

Xi'an is incredibly hot this season, and the Daming Palace, with no shade at all, is even more unbearable. The shuttle bus seems to have stopped running due to the lack of people. I only visited the Danfengmen Museum, where the explanations were relatively simple. Overall, I was a little disappointed.
The visit to the Daming Palace Ruins Park gave us a very intuitive understanding of the Tang Dynasty Daming Palace. Its area is four times the size of the Forbidden City in Beijing. The two museums in the park use the Daming Palace as a link to connect the history of the Tang Dynasty, which is great!

This trip to Xi'an was a decision I won't regret! I bought a package for two adults and one child, and was even given a free upgrade to VIP seats. What incredible luck! The show, which spans the Banpo period to the present day, boasts a variety of spectacular special effects that truly captivate. It's definitely worth bringing the kids along; it's both educational and fun. Highly recommended!
The Xi'an Eternal Love performance was very nice, and there were many free entertainment programs. The scenery in the scenic area was also very beautiful, and the photos and answers were very good. Next time I will bring my family here to play.

A mecca for calligraphy enthusiasts, the expanded Forest of Steles has become a truly magnificent destination. The old building is incredibly hot, and the lower floors of the new building are incredibly cold, so bring a jacket. The guided tours are essential. Don't forget to visit the Stone Carving Art Museum east of the old building!
A visit to the Xi'an Forest of Steles Museum was an exceptional experience. The guide was incredibly professional, skillfully explaining the history and calligraphic features of each stele. His explanations were insightful and engaging, and he proactively guided us through details with enthusiasm and patience.
The museum's collection is even more astounding, featuring inscriptions from Han Dynasty li to Tang Dynasty regular script, including those by Yan Zhenqing and Liu Gongquan. Treasures like the "Shitai Filial Piety Classic" are magnificent, showcasing the pinnacle of calligraphy and stone carving. This is a precious journey into Chinese civilization.

Teacher Adan's lectures were excellent, lasting two hours. His explanations were meticulous and insightful, and he was also very good at stimulating the audience's thinking. He was also very patient with the children and had a very strong affinity.
Teacher Guoguo is very punctual, has solid professional knowledge and is very friendly. The children followed the teacher's pace throughout the whole process. He explained to us in detail the historical rise and fall of Luoyang, as well as the treasures of the museum!

Many children come here, and there's a free small pool for them to play in. The popular elevator inside is perfect for photo ops. I wouldn't recommend it if you're not interested in plants and insects; you might not understand it. The firefly museum is huge, so you can see the fireflies glow. It's quite large, and it takes at least an hour and a half to explore. If you want to see the lights, go in at 6:00 PM; the lights don't turn on until around 7:30 PM. The elevator seems to be closed after 8:00 PM. It's quite far from the city center, and a taxi ride takes an hour.
This botanical garden is generally visited for the lights! So, in the summer, I recommend going in around 5:30 PM, otherwise it would be boring to sit there and wait for an hour or two! It only took half an hour to see all three pavilions!
