[Xi'an Ming City Wall]

Xi'an's city wall has become a business card for the city. Whether it is men, women, old and young, Chinese and foreign tourists, when traveling to Xi'an, the city wall is an inevitable stop to check in. The so-called Xi'an City Wall actually refers to the Ming City Wall, which is the largest and most completely preserved ancient city wall in China.

The flow of people shuttling back and forth is just to see the masterpiece of architectural art from thousands of years ago, or to overlook the differences between the two floors of the new Laocheng District inside and outside the city wall. On the one hand, there are flying eaves and arches, which often have century-old houses. On the other hand, there is a modern Xi'an New City that is changing with each passing day, is lined with tall buildings and is full of traffic. Here, feel the magical charm of time and space meeting here.

There are four main gates of Xi'an City Wall: Changle Gate (East Gate), Yongning Gate (South Gate), Anding Gate (West Gate), and Anyuan Gate (North Gate). These four gates are also the original gates of the ancient city wall. This time, we came to the South Gate, the most daily and cordial one among the people, because it is not only the main entrance to the city wall, but also Xi'an's landmark buildings within the pedestrian radiation range of the South Gate. -Bell and Drum Tower, as well as a palace-level snack street-Hui Min Street, so this is also a main entrance for foreign tourists to climb the city wall.

The Ming City Wall of Xi'an is 12 meters high, 12-14 meters wide at the top, and 15-18 meters wide at the bottom. The outline is a closed rectangle with a circumference of 13.74 kilometers. People inside the city wall are accustomed to calling it the Ancient City. Walking on the city wall, turning around and looking at these century-old houses under the city wall, you can see Xi'an at this moment is Chang' an.

[Terracotta Warriors]

The Terracotta Warriors, or the Terracotta Warriors of Qin Shi, are located in the Terracotta Warriors pit 1.5 kilometers east of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum in Lintong District, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province. They are the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units and the first batch of China's world heritage sites. In 1987, the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang and the Terracotta Warriors Pit were approved by UNESCO to be included in the "World Heritage List" and were praised as the "Eighth Wonder of the World". More than 200 foreign heads of state and government leaders visited and visited it, becoming a golden business card of ancient China's glorious civilization and is known as one of the world's top ten ancient tombs and rare treasures.

Terracotta warriors and horses are a product of the ancient sacrificial burial system. Social changes during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period led to changes in funeral customs, with the emergence of figurines for burial, that is, pottery figurines, wood figurines, etc. were used instead of human sacrifice. The original intention of "terracotta" was human sacrifice. When human sacrifice gradually faded out of people's view,"terracotta" became the proper term for pottery sculptures, stone carvings, and human figures in tombs. The Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses are a typical example of using terracotta warriors to replace people and are also the peak of using terracotta warriors to replace people. The scale and realism of the Qin terracotta warriors reached such a high level. In addition to the wisdom of the craftsmen, it was also inseparable from the will of Qin Shihuang, the first feudal emperor in history. Back then, Qin Shihuang was determined to pay homage to his glorious achievements and build a peerless underground palace for himself. This majestic underground military field appeared and after more than 2000 years of ups and downs, it has become our rare treasure today.

The burial pits of Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Warriors and Horses are located from west to east, and the three pits are arranged in a triangular shape. The earliest discovered was the No. 1 pit, which was rectangular in shape with sloping doorways on all sides. There are two terracotta warriors pits on the left and right sides of Pit No. 1, which are called Pit No. 2 and Pit No. 3.

The Terracotta Warriors Pit is an underground tunnel-type civil structure building, that is, a large pit about 5 meters deep is dug from the ground, and parallel soil partitions are built in the middle of the pit. Wooden columns are arranged on both sides of the wall, with crossbars placed on the columns. Shed wood is densely built on the crossbars and soil partition walls. The shed wood is covered with a layer of reed mats and then covered with loess to form a pit roof. The pit roof is about 2 meters higher than the surface at that time. The bottom of the pit is paved with blue bricks. The height of the space from the top to the bottom of the pit is 3.2 meters. After the pottery figurines and pottery horses were put into the pit, the surrounding doorways were blocked with standing trees, and the inside of the doorways was filled with rammed earth, thus forming a closed underground building.

Pit No. 1 is the most complete tunnel display. There are more than 8000 terracotta warriors here, each of which is in different shapes, lifelike and neatly arranged. Even though many of the pottery figurines seem to be dilapidated now, you can still vaguely see the spectacular scenes of that time.

[College Gate]

Shuyuan Gate is located on the east side of the south gate and connects Sanxue Street to Anju Lane in the east. During the 20th year of Wanli of the Ming Dynasty (1592), scholar Feng Congwu resigned and returned to Li due to his defeat in the struggle against the eunuchs and gave lectures at Baoqing Temple. Later, a new site was built and Guanzhong Academy was established on the north side of the street. There were often thousands of students, making it a famous academic institution. The Academy Gate we are talking about now refers to a pedestrian street from the Forest of Steles to the gate of Guanzhong Academy. The place name of the Academy Gate also originated from the Guanzhong Academy in it.

Today's Academy Gate was restored in 1991. On both sides of the street, the original architectural styles of the Ming and Qing Dynasties have been preserved. It is an ancient cultural street that specializes in antique calligraphy, painting, ink, paper and inkstones. Dingdang children who came back from the Tang Dynasty are probably also influenced by the cultural atmosphere of the street. Choose and choose the brushes you like. Is it time to open the door to the world of calligraphy from now on?

[Hui Street]

Xi'an Hui Street is a famous food and cultural district in Xi'an and the district with the largest concentration of Xi'an specialty snacks. Hui Street is actually not long. It runs from north to south and is about 500 meters long. It is paved with bluestone and shaded by trees. On both sides of the road, there is a color of Ming and Qing Dynasties buildings, restaurants, or utensils. They are all operated by Hui people and have strong halal characteristics.

The name of Huimin Street has resounded across the country. Probably everyone who comes to Xi'an to travel and stroll around Huimin Street. Therefore, the lively streets and alleys and surging people are also a major feature here.

[Forest of Steles Museum]

Stele Forest Museum is located at No. 15 Sanxue Street, Beilin District, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province. It is the earliest museum established in Shaanxi. It mainly collects, displays and studies ancient steles, epitaph and stone carvings, and has become a unique art museum in China.

The Forest of Steles Museum was built in 1944. It is based on the "Xi'an Forest of Steles" with a history of more than 900 years and expanded by using the ancient buildings of Xi'an Confucius Temple. It is an art museum that collects, studies and displays ancient steles, epitaph and stone carvings. There are more than 11000 cultural relics in the collection, including 134 of 19 Chinese treasure cultural relics and 535 of first-class cultural relics. Four of the famous "Six Horses of Zhaoling" are hidden here.

[Minleyuan Pedestrian Street]

Minle Park Pedestrian Street, which is the gathering place for online celebrity shops. I once saw a guide on the Internet shouting,"Don't go to Hui Street anymore. Minle Park is the favorite of Xi'an girls." Haha, this sentence shows how lethal it is to Miss Katyuki. In order to understand Xi'an, an international metropolis, and keep up with the footsteps of children born in the 1990s and 2000s, the post-80s who were in mid-life crisis and the post-10s who were not deeply involved in the world came here to check in!

This is a street of online celebrity stores. Every store flaunts its own personality. The store is enough to be a scenery.

[Yanjiyou Bookstore]

Yanjiyou Bookstore has opened many branches across the country in the past two years. The three characters add up to a traditional Chinese character "shi". It is a very thoughtful name and a bookstore with a sense of design. Although I have been to Yanjiyou in Shanghai and Yanjiyou in Chengdu, this Yanjiyou flagship store in Xi'an Maike Center is indeed the largest Yanjiyou in China. Since its trial opening on October 30, 2018, it has become a veritable Internet celebrity. Whether in terms of appearance or connotation, it has long captured our hearts who love life.

The Yanjimaike flagship store in Xi'an was designed by the well-known Japanese designer Ms. Chiba Chiko. It is said that the design and preliminary communication of the entire bookstore took two years. In order to make his work more satisfied, the designer has traveled to China 16 times, and it is precisely because of this professionalism that he created such a perfect work!

It is not so much a bookstore as a dreamy library. It has a two-story book wall, a wooden spiral staircase, and a collection of 130,000 books. Every small detail is worthy of being amazed.

The rows of book walls leading to the top are absolutely shocking.
