More than 6,000 pottery figurines are arranged in a matrix in Pit 1, which is magnificent. Together with pottery horses and weapons, they form a majestic and strict military formation, which brings great visual impact. Visitors can visit the original display of bronze chariots and horses, and can also observe the archaeological site in Pit 3. If you are lucky, you can meet restoration experts, as if you are in an immersive history classroom.
The Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum is a great place to learn about the history of the Qin Dynasty. The exhibits are rich, the displays are orderly, and the explanations are detailed, allowing people to gain a deep understanding of the culture of ancient China. The museum has an elegant environment, complete facilities, and thoughtful service. After visiting, I had a deeper understanding of the greatness of Qin Shi Huang and the artistic value of the Terracotta Warriors. It is highly recommended for history lovers.

The scenery of the city wall is beautiful, and the bicycles are bumpy. It would be nice if they could be replaced with shared bicycles. Standing on the city wall, you can feel the intersection and impact of history and modernity. It's like traveling through a time tunnel, seeing the flashes of swords and shadows, and faintly hearing the roar of horses. . . . . . . . . .
This place is so beautiful. It is so beautiful when the lights are on at night. The whole building is so stunning. It looks completely different when you look at it from close up or far away. You can go up and have a look. You can also ride a bike. I also met people riding bikes. It's just a little hot. You must take precautions on this day. There are many people taking pictures inside. It's also very photogenic.

Gorgeous Everlasting Regret: Cultural Aphasia Under a Visual Feast
The stage performance of "Song of Everlasting Regret" creates a visual spectacle with brilliant lights and magnificent scenes, interpreting the love tragedy of Emperor Minghuang of Tang and Yang Guifei beautifully. The design of the water stage is ingenious, and the prosperity and decline of the prosperous Tang Dynasty are reflected in the rippling water; the huge lineup of hundreds of actors presents a suffocating audio-visual impact with the cooperation of sound, light and electricity.
However, under this gorgeous shell, the performance has fallen into the dilemma of cultural expression. The choreography that pursues visual shock too much has reduced the story that originally contained profound historical heritage and human struggle to a background board. Although the dance movements are uniform, they lack emotional tension, and the gorgeous costumes cover up the real waves in the characters' hearts. When technical means become the protagonist, cultural connotations will inevitably become decorations.
What this performance finally presents is a beautiful empty shell that has been emptied of historical weight. It satisfies modern audiences' imagination of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but fails to convey the emotional power and cultural weight of "Song of Everlasting Regret" that has traveled through thousands of years.
But overall, the ticket price is still too high.
So far, I have been to many cities to watch such large-scale outdoor and indoor performances. Eternal Love, Liu Sanjie, Song of Everlasting Regret, etc.! At present, Song of Everlasting Regret is the best in terms of stage design, lighting, sound and other visual effects! There are paintings in the mountains, scenery in the paintings, and people in the scenery! It is worth the money! It is really worth savoring again! If I can give a suggestion, I hope that the staff can remind you before watching the performance that there will be laser lights in a certain period of time during the live performance. Please do not shoot during this period to avoid damage to the lens! A small suggestion

Yuquanyuan is the entrance to the mountain. Both the North Peak Cableway and the West Peak Cableway require taking the bus from the tourist center to the cableway station. The bus fare and the cableway fare are calculated separately. The West Peak Cableway station is more than one kilometer away from the bus, and an additional slip fee is charged. The overall fee is high. The scenery is mainly concentrated in the circular tour of each peak, and the North Peak is considered the middle station.
I took the North Equator to go up the mountain at 7:30 in the morning, and took the West Cableway down the mountain at about 14:30 in the afternoon. I stopped and walked all the way. Canglong Ridge was difficult to climb at the beginning, and I kept climbing stairs until the middle peak. It took the longest time and the most energy. Bring a bottle of electrolyte drink and prepare several bottles of water. Personally, I feel that the scenery from the East Peak is more unique😁The weather was great that day, sunny and cloudy, with a slight southwest wind on the mountain. It is recommended to prepare underwear. When I was climbing the mountain, my short-axle back was wet, dry, and wet again. By the way, I complained about the public toilet on the way down the mountain. It really doesn’t match the 5A scenic spot😅But the beautiful scenery along the way is enough to heal everything✌️

Discussion on Laojun Mountain (The Laojun Mountain), "the world's unparalleled holy land, the world's first fairy mountain".
Located 3,000 meters southeast of Luanchuan County, Luoyang, the ancient capital of 13 dynasties. It is the main peak of the 800-li Funiu Mountain, a remnant of the Qinling Mountains, with an altitude of 2,200 meters. It was originally named Jingshi Mountain.
It has a humanistic history of more than 2,000 years and is the longest mountain in Taoism.

Very satisfactory stay experience, the environment is very good, especially the front desk service is super super super good! ! ! ! Fast check-in, complete room facilities, comfortable bed, smart room control, very good
First of all, I would like to thank the tailor Lin Juanjuan. It was my first time to go to Xi'an. This ancient city with a deep historical heritage helped me avoid many detours. The food and performances she introduced were very nice. My children liked them very much. Later, I added several performances and watched them all. The airport pick-up was very timely and the tailor was enthusiastic. I hope to go there again next time. Great~~~

Impressions after visiting Tang Furong Garden
Stepping into Furong Garden, the Ziyun Tower is magnificent, and Furong Lake reflects the pavilions and terraces, showing the elegance of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The Ladies' Hall and Tang Poetry Gorge are full of Tang charm, and the murals and sculptures tell of prosperity. At night, the fountain lights and shadows flow, and the water curtain reflects the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Every step and every scene is cultural, and the ancient and modern interweaves, and you can feel the magnificent romance of the Tang Dynasty.
Don't be misled by the TikTok anchor. The Tang Paradise is definitely much better than the Tang Dynasty City That Never Sleeps. If you think the ticket price is expensive, you can buy a combined ticket for 120 yuan with a drum or acrobatic performance, because the performance is really good. The drum performance I watched was a non-legacy performance, which lasted 30 minutes. There were two segments that made my blood boil. In addition, there are free performances in the Paradise. I watched four of them. You don't have to squeeze with the crowd. The night view is super beautiful at night. You can walk around slowly without so many people. It's very comfortable. The Paradise is also beautiful during the day. The architecture is exquisite, reflecting the beauty of the atmosphere. The only thing is that there are very few food items for sale, so it's best to bring some dry food with you. But the good thing is that there is not much commercial atmosphere, so it's suitable for tourists who want to play slowly and appreciate slowly.

This morning, I followed Chang'an's guide Chen to visit the four exhibition halls of Shaanxi Libo. Her professional and excellent ability and knowledge made us truly experience a Chinese culture baptism. The mystery of the bronze in Xizhou, the domineering of Qin and Han, and the prosperity of Datang will come again!
Come to Shaanxi History Museum. The wind in the morning was cool, stepping on the blue bricks like an annual wheel on the ground, and my heart jumped into this treasure house that preserves historical codes like a rabbit. Through the courtyard full of pine and cypress, under the red porch, the pavilion is looking at us with a round door. It is like an old album that can speak. Just opened the first page, the bronze smoke rises from the Shang and Zhou Dynasty. Those carved with the grain of the ding ah ah ah, bulky as if can smell the fireworks of the sacrifice!

The Grand Canyon is still worth a visit, the scenery is also good, the ground crack scenic area is very cool, and the Qixingzhai scenic area is more than 1,600 meters above sea level. I bought a 370 package ticket, thinking that I could walk less, but it didn't meet my expectations: the ground cable car cabin was hot, and I could go to the ground crack scenic area after getting off the cable car; the upward cable car was not bad, the vertical ladder was useless (taking the ladder is to go up the mountain, and you have to walk a long way down the mountain to take the cable car), and the escalator was useless (from the cable car to visit Qixingzhai, it takes a long and tiring way to go to the escalator through the building door, which is a disaster for people with poor physical strength). Friends who are not physically fit are better to go up and down by cable car. Starting in the afternoon, at the end of the ground cable car, you can take a free bus back to the first and second parking spots, which can save a lot of physical strength and time. This service is very satisfactory. The local freshly baked cakes are delicious. When driving by yourself, pay attention to driving slowly on mountain roads.
In the area of throwing pots to express affection, laughter and joy were heard one after another. With the simple throwing pot equipment, parents and children worked in pairs and devoted themselves to this traditional game. Through tacit cooperation, they completed the challenge together and won the holiday gifts prepared by Enshi Grand Canyon Scenic Area for fathers. I am waiting for you in Enshi Grand Canyon!

It's pretty good, the tickets are not expensive, it's suitable for taking pictures, there are performances, the NPC interaction is good, the staff service is good, the management is relatively standardized and orderly!
Very good, the children and adults had a lot of fun. It is cheaper to make Hanfu costumes outside. You can bargain with the people who take photos several times. Hahaha. It is very big inside. It took several turns to understand it. You must line up in advance for important performances and programs.
