The railway station is Xi'an North Railway Station. The subway in Xi'an basically runs south along the central axis and enters the north gate of Chang 'an City. I first get out of the subway outside the city and walk to the north gate. What I want is to gradually enter a better situation.

The current city wall in Xi'an is from the Ming Dynasty.

The north gate is called Anyanyuan. It can be seen that China has always been good at using the policy of conciliating people who are not of our kind.

The four-story building with many windows in the city is called the Arrow Tower, which allows you to shoot arrows and watch.

Entering the city gate is North Street, which is due south and north. Last year, Shufang came to Chengdu, and "Installation of Taiwan" was broadcast on TV at night. It tells the story of Xi'an City. It seems to have been photographed in this position. This city wall is not straight up and down, but trapezoidal and very stable.

When I went to Nanjing in 2017, I saw that Nanjing's ancient city wall is still very complete. The city wall of Xi'an is also very large. The moat and water are like a mirror, reflecting the gray city wall, red corner towers, green weeping willows, basket sky, and white clouds; Swarms of birds, sunset and sunset, and wind-blowing flags are all beautiful scenery that make people feel relaxed and happy, peaceful and satisfied. Even if they are poor and impoverished, they still have the backbone of a lonely aristocrat. They have some support in their hearts and their own home in their hearts.

Some people like to say that they are city dwellers, but you have to be in the city first. Do you have a city there? What about our city?

The Peace Cinema on North Street was built with Soviet aid. You can see the Russian architectural style and is now a cultural relic.

It was 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and I hadn't eaten anything just to save my stomach to find an authentic Xi'an flavor. There were several times when I couldn't find a restaurant that I thought was authentic, and I almost fainted from hunger. Is this obsessive-compulsive disorder? This steamed buns and wontons taste very good and quite satisfying. When you arrive at a place, you must find a place where local people line up to eat.

After eating steamed buns, walking on the street felt a lot more determined and sharper. I started from Chengdu in the morning and crossed the Bashan and Qinling Mountains all the way. I returned to the north. Walking on the road, the impact of the wind on my face on my skin was obviously enhanced. This is the north. In Chengdu, the wind is very light.

This building-Bell Tower-appeared in the middle of the intersection in front of you. Built in the Ming Dynasty, this is the city center of Xi'an. Four streets, east, west, north and south meet here. The bell tower is built on a square base and has three floors of eaves.

The hotel I booked was on the east side. Seeing that it was still early, I rode a shared bicycle and chose to ride westward to visit first.

Walking + cycling + public transportation is the best way to get around a city. You don't need to do too much homework to arrange your itinerary. Encounter encounters are the most enjoyable.

The place above is called Liangbaolou, which can tell about a period of history during the Eight-Power Allied Forces: in 1900, Britain, the United States, France, Germany, Russia, Italy, Japan, Austria and Hungary invaded Beijing in the name of clearing the Boxer Rebellion. High-dimensional battles low-dimensional battles, and industrial civilization battles agricultural civilization. Therefore, they were invincible. Empress Dowager Cixi and Guangxu went to Xi'an. The Forbidden City became the headquarters of the Eight-Power Allied Forces. They lived there for a year, and the Xinchou Treaty was signed the next year. In the past 60 years, after three emperors, Daoguang, Xianfeng, and Guangxu, many unequal treaties have been signed (as shown in the figure below), opening the model of patient survival.

Therefore, if people feel that they have been bullied, insulted, or looked down on by enemies, friends, family members and relatives, there is only one reason. That is, I am weak, or I am gradually weakening. It has nothing to do with the character of others. It has nothing to do with what you are doing right and wrong. This is the Law of the Jungle. This law applies to all dimensions of time and space. There are no mental problems, they are all material and energy problems. If you understand this as soon as possible, you will be relieved as soon as possible, and you will live an intelligent and philosophical life as soon as possible.

Cixi and Guangxu ran from Beijing to Xi'an. At this time, all they thought in their hearts was: Live, live like animals, and they will still be emperors alive. Moreover, being an emperor in a big country with chickens and dogs is very enjoyable, giving people a sense of existence. Once they die, everything will be reduced to zero. The Forbidden City became Wadhesi's headquarters. Over the past year, food, clothing, and life after returning to the Forbidden City had to be gathered together by the filial piety of various local officials. After all, everyone was still on a broken boat, and the ship sank and died together. After this stage, everyone could continue to HAPPY, so they offered many treasures and sent them to Xi'an. The next year, Cixi signed the Xin Chou Treaty. It was a natural thing to rely on the mountains, water, and the country to betray the country. After returning to the Forbidden City, most of the things were brought to Beijing. Still, some things were left behind, and local officials built this "Liangbao Building" for storage.

Liangbao Tower was not open, so I didn't enter it. I heard that there was a four-character plaque inscribed "Calm down" given by Cixi, which came from a very good poem by Cheng Yi in the Song Dynasty:

I am not leisurely when I have nothing to do, and the sun is already red at the east window when I sleep.

All things are content to observe and observe, and the four seasons are happy and prosperous.

The Tao connects heaven and earth with tangible form, but the thoughts enter the abnormal situation.

Wealth does not indulge poverty and low happiness. Men are heroes here.

What a good state. If Cixi can give such words, the realm of Cixi cannot be low, and the realm of Guangxu cannot be low. In fact, they should not be the ones who bear the blame of history. In fact, there is no difference between a blame and a white blame. There is no such thing as a pot or a pot. Doing those things is a waste of time. What needs to be done is to investigate things through science, identify people through history, and identify knowledge through thinking.

Beiyuanmen is located on the north side of the eastern section of West Street. It starts from West Street in the south and ends at Xihuamen Street in the north. It is an architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The governor's department yamen located at the north entrance of this street is correspondingly called "Beiyuan", hence the name "Beiyuan Gate". Beiyuanmen was originally part of the Imperial City of the Tang Dynasty. In the 26th year of Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (1900), when Cixi and Guangxu took refuge in Xi'an; Jingzhao Prefecture in the Song Dynasty, Fengyuan Road in the Yuan Dynasty, Xi'an Prefecture in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Shaanxi Governor Yamen in the Qing Dynasty, Guanzhong Road in the Republic of China, and Xi'an City People's Government and other administrative agencies were all located in the jurisdiction

"Gurbang" means "sacrifice" and "sacrifice of animals". It is one of the main rituals for the Hajj. The time is December 10 of the Islamic calendar, the last day of the Hajj period. On that day, pilgrims would slaughter animals.

Yunju Temple in Xi'an was originally named Anqing Temple. It is said that Li Shimin, the mother of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, believed in Buddhism and went to Wutai Mountain in the south of Zhongnan Mountain several times a year to worship Buddha. The journey was very arduous. Shimin fulfilled her filial piety for her mother, so she built five Buddhist temples to the west of Guangyun Gate in the palace city, imitating Nanwutai Mountain, for her mother to pay homage to her. Because auspicious clouds are common above the temple and never gather for a long time, it is also called Yunju Temple.

After eating the beef patties, I rode my bike from the West City to the East City, found the hotel I booked, stayed at, took a short rest, and came out again, rode a shared bicycle. Of course, I had to go to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

Looking back from the south gate when I left the city, I remembered that when Du Fu left the demoted official and came out of Jinguang Gate, he also looked back. He looked back at the west gate, and I looked back at the south gate. At that time, Du Fu's poem read like this. The name of the poem is very long:

"In the second year of Zhide, he left the Jingguang Gate in Beijing and returned to Fengxiang. In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, he left the relics and moved them to Huazhou officials and relatives. Don't have a sad past because of leaving this gate."

In the past, this path surrendered, and the western suburbs were prosperous.

Up to now, my courage is broken and I should not have summoned my soul.

If close servants return to the capital, how can they transfer their official positions?

Untalented people grow old day by day, stationed on horses and looking at thousands of doors.

Chang 'an belongs to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty is a dynasty of poetry. Chang' an is the Chang 'an of poetry. Du Fu is a saint of poetry. When you come to Xi'an, of course, you must taste Du Fu's poems in an immersive manner.

Du Fu once had political ideals, and he also had a starting line. However, I think the reason why he did not realize his political ideals was due to two factors: his personality and his love for drinking too much.

Shi Yun: I was locked up in Chang 'an by the rebels. In order to meet the emperor in Fengxiang, I escaped from this Jinguen. At that time, the Hu people in the western suburbs were constantly moving and the situation was severe. I took a lot of risks. I still feel scared when I think back to this day. I saw the tragic situation of many dead people on the road. I guess I haven't had time to perform a soul ritual for them to this day. Later, as Zuo Shiyi, I followed the emperor back to Chang 'an from Fengxiang. I was just about to settle down, but today I was demoted to an official position and went to the difficult Huazhou. This must not be the emperor's intention, because the emperor would not be unaware of my sincerity and loyalty. Now I have no talent for governing the country and my body is aging. Sigh, what is the use? Once again, I walked out of the Golden Light Gate. I stopped my horse and looked back at the towering city walls and many gates of Chang 'an City. Why wasn't there a door? Open it for me.

After riding happily all the way, I saw the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the distance. I was quite excited. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is also called the Cien Temple Pagoda. In a poem by Du Fu, I substantively became interested in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda through this poem.

Original works of Du Fu

Climb the Pagoda of Cien Temple with Zhu Gong

The high standard spans the sky, and the strong wind never stops.

It is not that he is arrogant about a scholar, but he is here to overcome all worries.

Only then can we know the elephant's teaching power is enough to pursue and search the underworld.

Looking up through the dragon and snake cave, branches begin to emerge to support the darkness.

The seven stars are in the north, and the sound of the river and the Han Dynasty flows westward.

Xihe whips during the day, and Shaohao walks in the clear autumn.

Qinshan suddenly broke, and the Jingwei River was beyond reach.

Looking down at it, you can only distinguish Huangzhou.

Looking back, I call you Yu Shun, and Cangwu Cloud is sad.

It's a pity that drinking in the Jade Pool, and the sun is peaceful in Kunlun Hill.

The yellow swan kept going, wailing where he had gone.

You see that Suyang Yan has his own plan.

I was still in Shanghai in 2018. Once, hotel staff went to the Oriental Pearl Tower in Pudong to play together. I also wrote a song based on this:

Walking Binjiang Avenue and climbing the Oriental Pearl Tower with the princes and ladies of Wudian "

Always be close to the Pujiang River, and now you visit the Pearl River;

There are five shops on the riverside, forty-six men and women;

The high standard is established in Pudong, and the mountains and rivers are closed;

The clouds and mist pass by the waist, and the auspicious wind does not stop;

The Pujiang River is like a thin belt, and the boat is like a turtle swimming;

Raise your hand to hug the bright moon, and hug it in the Xing Han's arms;

The universe is desolate and heartless, and we hold hands;

The work is very hard and I have to take half a day off today;

We have worked together for three or four years, but we are old friends when we go out;

Take a walk and talk about your heart, take photos and keep memories;

The owners treat them sincerely, and everyone devotes wholeheartedly;

When looking sincerely, why do you need to search hard;

There are ups and downs in life, and you seek your own goals when you are poor;

If you want to strive for a high tower, you don't have to be afraid of romance.

Now looking at what was written at that time, I felt sweating in shame. Regardless of whether high or low, this is also a bit of my story.

Take a photo in the distance first

Aunt Gongsun, a native of North Street in Yancheng (now in Luohe City, Henan Province), was the first dancer of the Tang Palace in the prosperous era of the Kaiyuan era. He is good at sword dancing, and his dancing posture surprises the world. It is famous around the world for dancing "Sword Tools".
Watching Aunt Gongsun's disciples dance swords and weapons (with preface)

On October 19th, the second year of the Dali Dynasty, Kui Mansion drove in the Yuanqi Mansion and saw Li Shierniang in Linying dancing with swords and strengthening her body. She asked her teacher, saying,"I am a disciple of Aunt Gongsun." In the fifth year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, Yu was still a child. He remembered the Gongsun family in Rancheng Temple. He danced swords and weapons in confusion, and the liars were fluttering. When he emerged from the crown alone, he was a person in the Erji Workshop of Liyuan, Yichun, Gaotou, and a dancer was worshipped outside. Xiao was a dancer. In the early years of Emperor Shenwu, Gongsun was alone. The appearance of jade and brocade clothes, and the white head are also white. Today's disciples are not handsome. After identifying its origin, I knew that there were many waves and generous things to comfort, so I wrote it "Sword and Tool Journey." Once upon a time, Zhang Xu, a native of Wu, was good at cursive calligraphy. He often saw Aunt Gongsun dancing Xihe swords in Ye County. Since then, his cursive calligraphy has improved and he is grateful. Gongsun knows it.

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful woman named Gongsun who danced a sword and moved all directions.

The spectator is like a mountain and depressed, and the world is low for a long time.

He is like Yi shooting at nine sunsets, and he is like a group of emperors riding dragons flying.

It comes like thunder that withdraws anger, and it ends like clear light in the sea and sea.

The red lips and pearls are lonely, and a disciple spreads the fragrance at night.

The beauty of Linying is under the White Emperor, and she dances this song wonderfully.

Questions and answers with others are useful, but they add to the pain.

There were 8,000 maids of the late emperor, and Gongsun ranked first in terms of swordsmanship.

In the past fifty years, it seemed to be counter-productive, and the royal family was stunned by the wind and dust.

The disciples of the pear garden are scattered like smoke, and the beauty of the female music reflects the cold sun.

The wood in front of the golden millet pile has been arched, and the grass in the Shicheng City of Qu Tang Dynasty is bleak.

The Dai banquet is hastily completed, and the moon rises eastward when the joy and sorrow come.

I don't know where he is going, and I'm worried about the barren mountains.

Looking north from the Big Wild Goose Pagoda

Qinshan suddenly broke, and the Jingwei River was beyond reach.

Looking down at it, you can only distinguish Huangzhou.

Looking up through the dragon and snake cave, branches begin to emerge to support the darkness.

After seeing the copybook of "Preface to the Holy Religion of Yanta" written by Chu Suiliang, which was once sold in a photo copy of the inscription, you can clearly see the traces of the modification. The modification added the meaning of running script, because Emperor Taizong especially liked Wang Xizhi's running script.

Riding southeast, I found Qujiang, which still belongs to Du Fu.

Qujiang Ershou

A flower flies but spring, and the wind blows thousands of points and worries people.

Let's see if you want to finish the flower through your eyes, don't get tired of hurting and drinking more into your lips.

Jade nests in small halls on the river, and unicorns lie in high tombs beside the garden.

To study physics carefully, you need to have fun, so why do you trouble yourself with prosperity?

I wear my spring clothes every day back in the morning, and I return home drunk every day at the head of the river.

Alcohol debts are common in many places, but life has been rare since ancient times.

The butterfly wearing flowers is deeply visible, and the dragonflies fly slowly in the water.

The stories and scenery flow together, and temporarily reward each other and don't disobey each other.

Aijiangtou

The wild old man in Shaoling swallowed his voice and cried, and he wandered around the river in spring.

The palace at the head of the river is locked with thousands of doors. Who are the green willows and new cattails?

I recall the past when the neon flag descended in the south garden, and everything in the garden became colorful.

The first person in Zhaoyang Hall follows you in the same chariot and serves you by your side.

In front of the chariot, talented people carry bows and arrows, and white horses chew gold.

Turn over to the sky and shoot at the clouds, smiling and dropping your wings.

Where are the bright eyes and white teeth now? Blood-stained wandering souls cannot return.

The Qing River flows east and the Sword Pavilion is deep, and there is no news from each other when we go to live.

Life is filled with emotions and tears, but rivers and rivers are the ultimate!

At dusk, Hu cavalry filled the city with dust, wanting to head south and look north.

Qu Jiang Chi Fu--Wang Wei

The beautiful scenery in the Emperor's Village is the old pond in Xianjing. Take the name of Qujiang far away, and match the rules of Lingzhao ①. The auspicious sun in the east city has just risen, deeply covering the weather; the light and wind in the south garden have just risen, and the first to move. Here, the road runs eastward, and the high pavilion stands in the north. The apricot garden next to it is filled with fragrance, and the shadow enters the cloud building in front of it. Surrounded by beautiful trees, rare birds gather in fog. Yanghe is a little closer, and spring comes first every year; there are many pursuits, and everything everywhere is difficult to reach. Just like in the morning of early February, the grass along the embankment is new. The warblers sing while the wind winds sway the fog, and the fish leap and the waves sway the spring. It was He Yule's golden policy, carving Xuan embroidery wheels. Clattering together, clattering loudly. The green trees spread across thousands of homes, and the fragrance condenses the dust for miles. The king's grandson does not envy the meeting of Lanting ②; the person with a crescent eyebrow and cicada temples is suspicious of Luopu ③. On this day, the emperor lowered his chariot and stopped the colorful war. The mixed skills of Maru Sword are presented, and the wonderful singing of Xian Shao is presented. The flow flows beside the emperor's marsh, and the emperor's wind is smooth. After Gu Zhixuan, he traveled only to the Mekong of Chishui ④; King Mu He held a banquet on Yaotai ④. It was like a new sunny day in September, and the west wind filled the city. At that time, the chrysanthemum was tender and golden, and the deep spring and the mirror were clear. The floating north watchtower is fixed by light, and the south mountain is covered with green trees. There are shadows of the sun and clouds, and there are the sound of ducks and geese. Keep the blue sea in mind and want to fish, look at Kinmen and think of Zhuo Ying ④. Some choose to worry for a long time, and go to the river to sigh; Some raise the whip and be half drunk, walking leisurely around the bank. On this day, there are stars on the table, and the hair of the hairpin is bigger than the comb. It is said that the banquet given at the Chongyang Festival was based on the rank of many scholars. The promotion of good auxiliary services is like the time when he was in Fengshuo; The establishment of a group of princes beside him is different from the day when he was in Longshan. For example, in winter, the sky is cold, and in summer, the morning scenery burns the sky. I hate good people for the separation of times, but I love you for whom. Who can you see that the ice connects the shore and white, and the lotus shines on the sand red. The leaves are covered with snow, and the willows are covered with the wind. Isn't it not Kunming that matters to the capital? Isn't it too liquid that matters to the palace? On the one hand, it is only the auspicious sign of breeding turtles and dragons, and on the other hand, it is still the merit of war. How can it be as if the wheels and hooves are gathered together, and the noble and humble are the same? This shows the prosperity of the Western Capital, and also shows the greatness of the Shangguo. May a thousand years live forever, as long as this is endless. [2]

Ride through the Nanyuan Palace Wall

It was late when I returned to the hotel, and the strong wind blew my hat off on the road. Come out and find something to eat.

Yesterday I saw everything from the Tang Dynasty, but today I went to see the Qin Dynasty

After watching the Terracotta Warriors, I returned to Xi'an

Mutton steamed buns are a must-eat.

"Warring States Policy·Zhongshan Policy" records that the king of Zhongshan was present in the capital of Zhongshan. When the mutton soup was not spread, Simaziqi fled to Chu angrily, saying that the King of Chu attacked Zhongshan and the King of Zhongshan died. There were two men with their swords and followed him. The Lord of Zhongshan looked at the two men and said,"Are you the one who is?" The two said to each other: "I have a father. I was hungry and died. You put down a pot and fed him. My father was about to die and said,'Something happened in Zhongshan, and you will die.' Therefore, you have come to die." Lord Sun Yat-sen sighed and said: "If you don't expect many people, you will be in trouble; if you don't expect the depth of your resentment, you will be sad." I conquered the country with a cup of mutton soup, and won the two men with a pot of mutton."

Mao Xiuzhi, Mao Xiuzhi (375 - 446), also known as Jingzhi, was a native of Yangwu, Xingyang. He was the great-grandson of Mao Bao, general of the Fuguo of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and governor of Yuzhou. He was the grandson of Mao Muzhi, general of the Right Dynasty and internal history of Xuancheng. He was the son of Mao Jin, general of the Conquering Krupp and governor of the Liang and Qin prefectures. Mao Xiuzhi first followed Yin Zhongkan, the governor of Jingzhou, and later followed Huan Xuan. After Huan Xuan's defeat, he followed Liu Yu and served successively as General of Youwei and Sima of Anxi. After Liu Yu destroyed the Later Qin Dynasty, Mao Xiuzhi, Liu Yizhen, Duke of Guiyang, and his generals guarded Guanzhong. Later, he was captured by the Xia State and the Northern Wei Dynasty, and finally joined the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Mao Xiuzhi once made mutton soup for a Shangshu of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The Shangshu thought it was a delicious food in the world, so he presented it to Emperor Taiwu. Emperor Taiwu was overjoyed, and Mao Xiuzhi was able to get close to Emperor Taiwu because he was good at cooking southern dishes. Emperor Taiwu appointed Mao Xiuzhi as the Minister of Taiguan, granted him the title of Duke of Nanjun, and added the title of Champion General. He stayed in Taiguan for a long time to take charge of the royal meals. [21-22]

The owner was a family with no less than three children. He was a happy family. He asked me if I would eat sweet garlic. When I said yes, two of them came.

Ci Yun Zi was sent by Chu Rijian [author] Su Shi [Dynasty] Song

Bo officials drove us west, and we couldn't regret our departure.
I am worried about the future, but I have no time to worry about the evening.
Although there is wine for Qiang Huan, it will not make a banquet if you drink it cold.
Qin only cooked mutton soup, and Long dishes included bear wax.
Think of it as a child, and your fingers have become the past.
Why should I pursue the past today? Suddenly, it seems as if the arrow has been released.
Feeling the times and lamenting the events, the loss is not worth the gain.
The government soldiers came to drive Nuo away, shocking visitors from afar.
How can there be demons when you are worried? I trouble you to dismember yourself.
Cold plums and frozen apricots, the tender calyx begins to look like wheat.
Climbing is melancholy, when will the jade stamen break?
Don't worry about the bright evening of spring, and abandon the core of summer when you walk.
If you are happy in life, why should you use your reputation?
Hu is lonely and has a lot of feelings, and he burns himself without seeing the ointment.
The poem comes with bitterness and breadth, and the son's intention is far away.
When I see him, I doubt him at hand.
Although my brother is a small official now, I am lucky to assist Uncle Fang.
The north pool was dug nearby, and there were green water in it.
Drinking good wine in the pond can still last forever.
However, I am afraid that poetry is weak, and fighting hard will be difficult.
Ten days after the poem is written, who says that it is thousands of miles away?
Send an article in January, why bother worrying?

Remember this store

Daming Palace, the main palace of the Great Dynasty of the Tang Empire, was the political center and national symbol of the Tang Dynasty. It is located in Longshou Plain on the north side of Chang 'an (now Xi'an), the capital of the Tang Dynasty. It is the largest of the three main palaces of Chang 'an City in the Tang Dynasty (Daming Palace, Taiji Palace, Xingqing Palace) and is called "Dongnei". Since Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, 17 Tang Dynasty emperors have handled government affairs here, which lasted for more than 200 years. The Daming Palace was built in the eighth year of Zhenguan of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty (634). The entire palace area can be divided into two parts: the former dynasty and the inner court. The former dynasty was mainly for court meetings, and the inner court was mainly for residence and banquets. The centers of the former dynasty were Hanyuan Hall (Outer Dynasty), Xuanzheng Hall (Central Dynasty), and Zichen Hall (Inner Dynasty). In the inner courtyard, there were Taiye Pond and more than 30 different halls, pavilions, and temples.

Danfeng Gate is the main south gate on the center axis of the Daming Palace in Tang Dynasty. Its length, quality and specifications are the highest among the gates of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, reflecting its royal style with thousands of dignity and atmosphere. Its high regulations and large scale create the highest city gates and towers. It is of great value to the study of the archaeology of Chang 'an City in the Tang Dynasty and the capital of China. It is praised as the "first gate of the Tang Dynasty" by the cultural relics and archaeology community. After excavation, five doorways were discovered at Danfeng Gate. It was the tallest gate in the architectural system in China's feudal society. It was more than 60 meters long from east to west and 20 meters wide from north to south. It was the highest-specification "first gate in the world" in ancient China. [54-55]

The word "Ming" appeared early in the "Ming" chapter in the "Book of Songs·Da Ya". According to the "Preface to Mao's Poetry", it means: "King Wen had clear virtue, so God ordered King Wu to be the same. King Wen and King Wu inherited each other, and their virtue became wider and wider, so they were called the Ming Dynasty." Like Weiyang Palace, its name comes from the Book of Songs, Daming Palace is a self-encouragement based on the diligent and wise government of the King of Zhou.

Taiyechi was first dug in the eighth year of Zhenguan (634) and officially used in the second year of Longshuo (662). It was abandoned until the end of the Tang Dynasty. Later, it was silted up and buried into flat land due to historical changes. Taiye Pond is located in the center of the inner court of Tang City and is the most important pond in the Tang Empire. The Daming Palace is divided into a front palace and a harem. The harem is centered on the aether liquid pool and is the royal garden scenic spot of the palace. The entire Taiye Pool has two parts: the east pool and the west pool. The west pool is the main pool. Its plan is flat and has an area of about 140,000 square meters.

Let's first look at one of the Eight Songs of Autumn Xing:

At the head of the Qujiang River at the mouth of Qutang Gorge, thousands of miles of wind and smoke connect with autumn.
The flower calyx sandwiched in the city connects with the imperial spirit, and the lotus garden enters the border and worries.
Yellow swans are surrounded by beaded curtains and embroidered columns, and white gulls are raised on the walls of brocade cables and teeth.
Looking back at the poor singing and dancing place, the Qin Dynasty has been an imperial state since ancient times.

Chang 'an is the ancient capital of the 13th Dynasties. The most you see this time are Tang Dynasty. There is a Weiyang Palace site in the Han Dynasty that has not been lost in time.

Weiyang Palace, the main palace of the Great Dynasty of the Western Han Empire, the political center and national symbol of the Han Dynasty, was built in the seventh year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (200 years ago). It was built by Xiao He, an important minister of Liu Bang, and was built on the basis of Qin Zhangtai. It is located on the Longshou Plain in the southwest corner of Chang 'an City in the Han Dynasty. Because it is west of Anmen Street in Chang' an City, it is also called the West Palace. Since the completion of Weiyang Palace, emperors of the Western Han Dynasty lived here and became the government order center of the Han Empire for more than 200 years. Therefore, in the poems of later generations, Weiyang Palace has become synonymous with Han Palace. After the Western Han Dynasty, Weiyang Palace was still the place of governance in many dynasties such as the New Mang, Western Jin, Former Zhao, Former Qin, Later Qin, Western Wei, and Northern Zhou Dynasties. It was also designated as part of the Forbidden Garden during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It existed for 1041 years and is the palace with the most dynasties and the longest existence in Chinese history.

The word "Weiyang" first comes from "The Book of Songs·Xiaoya·Swan Zhi Shi·Tingliao":"What about the night? At night, the light of the courtyard burns "[18]. The words "Weiyang" in the poem are explained as "not finished","not finished" and "not finished".

Get up in the morning, go to Xi'an snacks, and then get on the train to the next station

Basic introduction to Xi'an Hu La Tang Xi'an people are generally not used to making breakfast at home because there are so many breakfast stalls on the street.
Hu spicy soup is the most common food.
Xi'an's spicy soup is divided into Henan and Shaanxi provinces, Hui and Han provinces, and diced pork meatballs.
Hui people's Hu spicy soup is made from beef soup and beef meatballs as basic raw materials. In order to highlight the freshness of the beef soup, the sourness was abandoned, the spiciness of the pepper was reduced, and the salty taste was increased to adapt to the tastes of Shaanxi people.
Regarding the history of Hu La Tang, because its main ingredient, pepper, was introduced to China since the Tang Dynasty, the upper limit of its production should not be earlier than the Tang Dynasty.
Because Hulatang is a folk snack, it is rarely mentioned in classics. The ancestors of Hulatang should be sour and spicy soup and meat porridge. According to the widely circulated "Taiping Huimin and Ji Ju Fang" in the Song Dynasty, adding spicy, warm, fragrant and dry drugs to food is probably a social trend at that time, so Hulatang was improved on the basis of these two foods.

How to make Xi'an Hu spicy soup: Boil the soup in a large pot until it boils quickly, add the smooth beef meatballs as big as finger eggs, and then add potatoes, carrots, cabbage and other vegetables according to experience (all vegetables are cut into hob blocks), and then add the appropriate amount of seasoning: salt, five-spice powder, and pepper powder. The most important thing is to add a unique seasoning that is not leaked out. The difference in the taste of various spicy soups is determined by this unique secret recipe.
