In Xi'an, my first impression in my memory was that of the "Qin Terracotta Warriors", known as the eighth wonder of the world; and in the past two years, hot words such as "Chang' an Twelve Hours", Xi'an celebrating the New Year, Xi'an's bowl of wine, and little lady tumbler have continued to enter my field of vision.

There are light corridors and light shows in the east-west and north-south directions, which are dizzying and sighing. Tourists from all over the world and the motherland were shocked.

The South Gate was called "Yongning Gate" in ancient times. It was the oldest and longest used gate among the city walls of Xi'an. It was built in the early Sui Dynasty (582 AD) and changed to "Yongning Gate" in the Ming Dynasty. Among Chinese people, people believe that the south is the location of the Fire God. In order to avoid fires, stoves are generally not opened to the south.

In addition to the science and technology light exhibition, there are also sports styles: the style of the Tang Dynasty lights up the "sports theme"; polo is a popular competitive entertainment activity in the Tang Dynasty. Not long ago,"Chang 'an Twelve Hours" was popular, and the polo drama in the play restored the grand occasion of polo sports in the Tang Dynasty.

Among them, the four gates of Yongning Gate, Anyuan Gate, Changle Gate and Anding Gate, as the original gates of Xi'an Ming City Wall, were all single gates due to the military defense needs at that time. The Weng City between the doors and the doors is also full of lanterns and colorful colors.

[2] Dialogue with the stars and dance with Lishan Mountain

The Huaqing Palace, located in Lishan Mountain in Lintong District, Xi'an City, was a separate palace where feudal emperors traveled. Together with the Summer Palace, Yuanmingyuan and Chengde Summer Resort, they are also known as the four major royal gardens in China. Huaqing Palace is built against the mountains and facing the Wei River. It is large in scale and magnificent in architecture. It is dotted with towers, halls and halls all over Mount Li. It was originally named "Tangquan Palace" and later renamed Hot Spring Palace.

On the north slope of Lishan Mountain, the highest and largest mountain dragon lantern group in the country,"Longteng Lishan", shows the scene of a 100-meter-old auspicious dragon taking off on the wind in Lishan Mountain.

The 3rd Huaqing Palace Tang Palace Lantern Festival uses a combination of "culture + folk customs + technology" to reproduce the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the history of the Chinese nation, presenting everyone with a three-dimensional Tang Dynasty with the same color of mountains and rivers, and bright stars in the Tang Dynasty. It is also the 2020 Xi'an New Year Lantern Festival. It is also the only light exhibition that combines acoustic and optoelectronic technology with Shuiwen Temple. Standing by the Huaqing Pool, it is particularly shocking to look up at the starry sky tree lights on Mount Li and the giant dragon lights on the mountainside. In addition, it is accompanied by modern popular electric syllables, light shows, and dance shows, which are wonderful and amazing.

[3] Tang Dynasty Furong Garden,"Dream Back to Tang Dynasty"

The Tang Dynasty Furong Garden, located on Furong West Road, Qujiang New District, Yanta District, is north of the original Tang Dynasty Furong Garden ruins. It was rebuilt in the style of the Tang Dynasty royal gardens. It is the first large-scale royal garden-style cultural theme park in China to comprehensively display the style of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty Furong Garden has many antique buildings such as Ziyun Tower, Lady Hall, Royal Banquet Palace, Apricot Garden, Fanglin Garden, Fengming Jiutian Theater, and Tangshi.

The Spring Festival will last from January 17, 2020 to March 1, 2020, and will last for 45 days. However, the most amazing thing for tourists is the large-scale live-action performance at Fengming Jiutian Theater-"Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty"

Fengming Jiutian Theater is located north of the south gate of the Tang Dynasty Furong Garden, on the main axis of the park, facing the main landscape Ziyun Building in the north. It can accommodate 606 spectators. The theater combines the terrain with a height difference of 4 meters in the south and low in the north to set up an audience hall, which greatly reduces the height of the building, decomposes the building volume, and adapts to the garden environment. Four golden phoenixes spread their wings and danced and sang loudly, reflecting the name and function of the theater. The theater is resplendent. It is a royal inner-courtyard theater with first-class modern facilities and the charm of the Tang Dynasty. It is the core performance area for the whole park's cultural theme performances. The main program reserved by the theater is the song and dance epic "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" choreographed by China's best choreographers.

The performance was wonderful. It is said that the eternal love of Songcheng, Hangzhou is a performance that must be seen in a lifetime. I think "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" is definitely a performance that I had to watch when I came to ancient Chang 'an.

The cast is huge, with exquisite costumes, costumes, props, superb acting skills, and shocking sound and light! The scenes and plots not only combine the prosperous times of the Tang Dynasty, but also highlight the historical changes of ancient Chang 'an and Qujiang.

[4] The city that never sleeps in the Tang Dynasty, Chang 'an in the ancient Tang Dynasty

Located at the foot of the world-famous Big Wild Goose Pagoda in Qujiang New District, Xi'an, this free open theme cultural street is 1500 meters long from north to south and 550 meters wide from east to west. It is located just south of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, with the culture of the Tang Dynasty as the background and the elements of the Tang Dynasty as the main line. It is usually characterized by experiential consumption and strives to create a one-stop consumption paradise integrating shopping, catering, entertainment, leisure, tourism and business. In the 2020 New Year of the Rat, we are also committed to creating a miniature version of Chang 'an City to reproduce the "two cities and six squares" of the Tang Dynasty.

What does "two cities and six squares" mean? According to the spatial pattern of the Tang Dynasty, Zhuque Street divides the market into the east city and the west city, with Chongren Square, Anxing Square, Xingfang, Chonghua Square, etc. respectively. Tourists walking into it feel like returning to the millennium prosperous Tang Dynasty. The Song and Dance Parade of the Tang Dynasty is interspersed with everything to eat, travel, live, and travel, as well as special activities for special festivals. It sounds very lively! Many tourists come just for Miss Tumbler, but if you are here and see these beautiful women with Tang charm, you will fall in love at first sight and unforgettable.

At the same time, the "Chinese Taste·Handmade Dumpling Banquet" event was held, and time-honored brands such as Defa Chang were united to hold interactive activities such as dumpling tasting on the same day.

You must have seen floats and ancient costumes, but you must have rarely seen the gorgeous float array under the night, right? The city that never sleeps in the Tang Dynasty is as its name suggests. Relying on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the city starts from Xuanzang Square in the north, reaches Tang City Wall Ruins Park in the south, starts from Cien East Road in the east, and ends from Cien West Road in the west. It runs through three theme squares: Xuanzang Square, Zhenguan Cultural Square, and Kaiyuan Celebration Square., six imitation Tang blocks and four cultural buildings, Xi'an Concert Hall, Xi'an Grand Theater, Qujiang Film City, and Shaanxi Artists Exhibition Gallery.

During the Spring Festival, she performs for 20 minutes every day at 19, 20, 21, and 22 o'clock. If you have the opportunity, you can go again. In addition,"Kaiyuan Square" is the landscape climax of the center axis of the Tang Dynasty Sleepless City, and Zhenguan Monument is the landmark sculpture of the Sleepless City. Its area is four times the size of the Palace Museum.

7000 years of time and space, 3 days to take a quick look at the four major monuments in Xi'an

[1] The "toe" of the birthplace of Xi'an civilization-the Yangshao Banpo Site

Every national historical and cultural city has the origin of the city's civilized development. Xi'an, known as Chang' an and Haojing in ancient times, is the capital of Shaanxi, a sub-provincial city, the core city of the Guanzhong Plain urban agglomeration, and the starting point of the Silk Road. It was identified as a "World Historical City" by UNESCO in 1981. The earliest history known to many people is probably the Qin Terracotta Warriors. But Xi'an civilization originated 7000 years ago.

The Banpo Site is located on the east bank of the Chan River in Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province. It was discovered in 1953; five large-scale excavations have been carried out, with a total excavation area of 10,000 square meters. 45 house remains, 2 enclosures, more than 200 cellar caves, 6 pottery cellar ruins, more than 250 tombs, and about 10,000 production tools and daily necessities were found. It belongs to the Neolithic Era, around and around the ages, a village site left over from the prosperous period of matriarchal clans in China's primitive society

The Banpo site is divided into residential areas, burial areas and pottery workshop areas. The residential area is surrounded by a large artificial ditch, which is divided into 2 areas by a small ditch. Each area has a large house in the center and is surrounded by small living rooms. There are two types of houses: semi-crypt and ground buildings, with cellars between the houses for storing things. Imagine that in that era, the ancients were unarmed and could only rely on the stones of nature, but they were so smart to survive.

It is also one of the "Top Ten Tourist Attractions in Xi'an" and one of the "Top 50 Places Most Worth Visiting for Foreigners in China". Banpo Museum has an exhibition area of approximately 4500 square meters and is divided into three parts: unearthed cultural relics display, site hall and auxiliary display. Banpo Museum collects more than 30,000 cultural relics and more than 200 first-class items. The collection includes about 3000 stone tools, 14,000 pottery pieces, more than 3700 other texture objects, more than 200 human bone specimens, and more than 200 fossil specimens of ancient organisms and ancient humans. The fish pattern on the pottery of the Banpo Site is representative, among which the human face pattern with fish in the mouth is the most distinctive.

The houses excavated at the site have several shapes such as circular, square, and rectangle. Square houses are generally smaller in area. The area of round or rectangular houses is generally about 20 square meters, and some small ones are only 10 square meters. In the center of the residence, there is a fairly large rectangular house with an area of about 160 square meters. It is a place for public activities for clan members. About 200 were excavated, indicating that the Banpo Clan Commune was a considerable collective and settlement.

In addition to the cultural relics exhibition and the Banpo Ruins Museum, there are also experience points for drilling wood and making fire. Select fire materials, flint stones, and wooden boards, and make a bow out of bamboo strips. Two or three people work together to drill the wood to heat it, and finally generate smoke; while blowing, gas and flames are fired. These processes are simple to say. But in fact, it was very difficult. Tourists and friends, after visiting the ruins where the ancestors lived and lived, are also full of admiration for the survival skills of the ancients. So this kind of interaction is very good.

[2] The eighth wonder of the world-Qin Shihuang Terracotta Warriors

Terracotta Warriors are undoubtedly one of the most beautiful business cards in Chinese history. It began in 247 BC and has shocked China and abroad in an instant since its discovery in 1974. The Terracotta Warriors, namely the Terracotta Warriors of Qin Shi Huang, also referred to as the Terracotta Warriors or the Terracotta Warriors of Qin Dynasty, the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units and the first batch of China's world heritage sites, are located in the Terracotta Warriors pit 1.5 kilometers east of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang in Lintong District, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province.

In March 1974, the Terracotta Army was discovered. 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. At present, due to the limitations of scientific research and protection technology, only three pits have been excavated in the Qin terracotta warriors. How many terracotta warriors are there underground? For comparison, the area of the Forbidden City in Beijing is only 1/78 of the entire area of the Qin Emperor Mausoleum.

At present, only some of the terracotta warriors and horses have been unearthed in pits 1, 2, 3 and 4. According to surveys, more than 8000 terracotta warriors and horses have been buried deep underground. 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 discovery was the No. 1 pit, which was rectangular in shape. There were more than 8000 terracotta warriors and 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. Due to three excavations, the original gate of the Terracotta Warriors Scenic Area has become the third gate of the scenic area. The correct route to visit: Qin Shihuang Terracotta Warriors Museum → Pit 1 → Pit 3 → Pit 4 → Pit 2.

The Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum of Qin Shi Huang is a large-scale burial pit in the cemetery of Ying Zheng, China's first feudal emperor Qin Shi Huang, with an area of 2.18 million square meters. The museum is based on the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang. The ruins museum was established on the original site of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit. It is also the largest ancient military museum in China. The museum displays the "Bronze Crown"-the world's largest bronze ware. The painted bronze chariots and horses at the Mausoleum of the Emperor Qin Shi Huang are known as the "Bronze Crown"; the bicycle exceeds the fifth tripod of his stepmother by more than 400 kilograms.

These two carriages were jokingly called the world's earliest convertible cars by the tour guide. After more than 2000 years, more than 3,000 pieces of debris were unearthed and excavated, which took more than 8 years for cultural relics restoration. As the earliest, largest and most completely preserved bronze carriage discovered in my country's archaeological history, its discovery is of great value for studying the smelting and bronze manufacturing technology, carriage system, and vehicle structure of the Qin Dynasty in my country.

In the Academy History Exhibition Hall on one side, some major events of archaeological excavations since the discovery of the Qin Imperial Mausoleum are displayed.

Pit No. 1 was discovered by local farmers while drilling wells, and pits No. 2 and No. 3 were discovered after drilling. Pit No. 1 is the largest, with a length of 230 meters from east to west and a width of 62 meters with a total area of 14260 square meters. About 6000 life-size pottery figurines are buried in this pit, and more than 1000 have been cleared. It is unbelievable to find such large, numerous and lifelike pottery figurines underground.

Pit No. 1 is the largest and rectangular. It is a main army formation with tanks and infantry. Opened in 1979, it is 230 meters long, 62 meters wide, 4.5 meters to 6.5 meters deep from the original surface, and has an area of 14260 square meters. There are 10 rammed partition walls 2.5 meters wide in the pit, forming a pattern of 9 compartments wide in the north and south, surrounded by corridors. More than 1000 pottery figurines, 8 chariots, 32 pottery horses, and nearly 10,000 bronzes of various types have been unearthed. Based on the arrangement density of the unearthed terracotta soldiers, it is estimated that more than 6000 terracotta warriors and horses were buried in Pit 1.

To this day, the archaeological excavation and restoration of Terracotta Warriors in Pit No. 1 has not stopped. Nowadays, tables that look like "operating tables" and the terracotta warriors that have just been spliced and restored are shocking. Except for Pit No. 1, everything else is dim. The reason is that the terracotta warriors in the early days of excavation were colorful. When exposed to air and sunlight, it will fade, oxidize, and rupture. Therefore, many people can see the most clearly in Pit 1, and it is also the exhibition hall that tourists cannot leave for a long time.

Pit No. 3 is located northwest of Pit No. 1, in a concave shape. The warriors and terracotta warriors are arranged in a sanitation formation along the road, symbolizing the ancient military curtain and the command system of the military formation. Discovered in 1976 and opened in 1987, the smallest scale is 25 meters away from Pit 1 and about 120 meters away from Pit 2 to the east. The three pits are arranged in the shape of "pin". It is 17.6 meters wide from east to west and 21.4 meters long from north to south. It has a "concave" shape in plane structure, a depth of 5.2--5.4 meters, and an area of 524 square meters, which is only equivalent to 3.6% of the area of pit 1 and pit 2. 6.7% of the area of pit 2.

The terracotta warriors of high-level military officials, commonly known as the general terracotta warriors, are very few in number in the Qin Dynasty. Less than ten pieces were unearthed. They are divided into two types: the terracotta warriors of war generals and the armor-armored general terracotta warriors. Their common characteristics are that they wear a crown, are tall and burly, and have outstanding temperament., with the demeanor of a general.

Coming out of Pit No. 3, you will pass through the Terracotta Warriors Cultural and Creative Exhibition Hall. Each Terracotta Warriors of different shapes here is made of the soil of this pit area. It is painted and fired at high temperatures. It is the most authentic. Compared with the terracotta warriors sold at the entrance of the scenic area, the cultural and creative products here are worth buying and keeping as souvenirs.

Pit No. 2 is on the north side of Pit No. 1 and has a slightly curved ruler shape in plane. It was discovered in 1976 and is located about 20 meters north of Pit No. 1. It is the essence of the Qin Dynasty Pit. The discovery of Pit No. 2 revealed the mystery of ancient military formations. The longest part from east to west is 96 meters, the widest part from north to south is 84 meters, the depth is about 5 meters, and the area is about 6000 square meters. It consists of four units: the first unit, the protruding part in the east, is composed of kneeling posture holding a bow and vertical callow soldiers; The second unit is the southern half of the pit, which is composed of four-horse chariots and chariots; The third unit is the combination of chariots and horses in the middle of the pit, which is composed of chariots, infantry and cavalry figurines to form a rectangular array; The fourth unit is the northern half of the pit. A long square array composed of many cavalry. The four phalanxes are organically combined, consisting of chariots, cavalry, and crossbows, allowing them to attack. It can be seen that when Qin Shihuang was in power, the military management of the tiger and wolf army was very strict.

Among the unearthed terracotta warriors include chariot warriors, upright shooting figurines, kneeling shooting figurines, warrior figurines, military officials, cavalry figurines, royal hand figurines, and copper chariot display lanterns. These terracotta warriors are of high value in the history of art. The majestic military formation reproduces the military merits and military might displayed by Qin Shihuang to complete the great cause of unifying China. It can be said to be a shining pearl, because it has a majestic underground military formation composed of more than 7000 terracotta warriors and horses from the Qin Empire more than 2,000 years ago, which has attracted global attention and shocked the world.

But many people are still shocked by the scale, posture, age, history, and value of cultural relics. Especially foreigners, they are even more shocked. From the end of the visit to the Terracotta Warriors, at the exit, you can experience the hand-made Terracotta Warriors-Qin School's "Handicraft Education Classroom"

This is also a good opportunity to further understand more about the legendary ancient relic of the Terracotta Warriors. The PPT is simple and divided into 7 steps, but in those days, it was really difficult to create a terracotta warrior with a height of 1.8 meters. Especially in an era when various manufacturing processes and equipment are backward. Of course, in the handicraft classroom, abrasive tools made of terracotta warriors were provided, while in ancient times they were completely shaped by hand.

According to the steps, fill the clay sculpture, press the abrasive tool and absorb water, and finally repair it. The whole process does not take long, and it is also very unforgettable to make a DIY terracotta warriors according to your own feel. However, the key to making terracotta warriors is whether they can stand up. Whether the details are lifelike.

After the production of the Qin Academy was completed, we will visit the Qin Terracotta Warriors Theater. "The Love of the Qin Terracotta Warriors" is not just a performance, it is also a symbol of Xi'an. Just like Paris has the Moulin Rouge and New York has Broadway, when you go to the city of Xi'an, you must watch "The Love of the Qin Terracotta Warriors". "Love of Qin Terracotta Warriors" is another epic masterpiece after "Impression of Third Sister Liu" and "Love of Song City through the ages". An epic masterpiece that took several years and cost 700 million yuan to create. From the perspective of a soldier of Qin, it leads the audience to get a close touch of the legendary history of Qin Emperor Qin more than 2,000 years ago. And "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" are both performances that are highly respected to watch.

If you come by chance, you can also have intimate contact with the actors in the hall, especially the actresses dressed in Qin costumes. They are beautiful and moving, and their clothes are very charming.

Xi'an Drum Tower and Bell Tower are located in the center of the ancient capital of Xi'an City; the intersection of the four streets, east, west, north and south within the Ming City Wall of the Bell Tower is the largest and most completely preserved Bell Tower in China. It was built in 1384 in the 17th year of Hongwu of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty and was first built at the present Guangji Street Corner. Opposite the Drum Tower, it was relocated to this site in the 10th year of Wanli of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty (1582). The bell tower is built on a square base and has a brick-and-wood structure. It has a three-story eaves and a roof at the four corners. It has a total height of 36 meters

In the underground passage to both sides of the clock tower, there will be some photography works from different eras. In the past, a large clock was hung upstairs to warn the police and tell the time, hence the name "Bell Tower". The entire bell tower is mainly of brick and wood structure, built on a square base made of blue bricks and white ash. The building is a wooden structure, with three rooms in depth and three rooms in width.

The platform from the steps up to the base leads to the first floor hall. There are doors on all sides of the hall, surrounded by a platform, with a grid painted caisson well on the top, and wooden grid windows and doors on all sides on the second floor communicating with the outer corridor. The bell tower construction technology applies the rules of Tang and Song Dynasties architecture, as well as innovations in the Ming Dynasty architectural technology. The overall architecture style with double eaves and three drops of water is typical of the Ming Dynasty. The building is divided into two floors, the lower layer is a heavy eaves, the upper layer has two eaves, the four corners of the roof is covered with green glazed tiles, each floor is equipped with arched arches and carved scenery paintings, and there are bright pillars and corridors, colorful Fang thin windows and carved door leaves around.

Standing on the corridor and terrace downstairs, you can overlook the scenery in all directions in the center of Xi'an City. Throughout the entire Ming Dynasty, the architectural shape and level of Xi'an Bell Tower were even higher than that of Nanjing, the capital city at that time. Xi'an Bell Tower is the largest, oldest and best-preserved Bell Tower of its kind in China. In the Ming Dynasty, Xi'an was an important military and political town in the northwest, so in terms of architectural scale, historical value or artistic value, Xi'an Bell Tower ranked first among similar buildings in China. As a result, it has become one of the landmark buildings in Xi'an. In ancient times, there was a saying of "morning bells and evening drums", so the Drum Tower is also a must-visit.

About 200 meters northwest of Xi'an Bell Tower at the intersection of the four streets, east, west, north and south within the Ming City Wall. Built in 1380 in the 13th year of Hongwu of Zhu Yuanzhang, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, it is one of the largest and most completely preserved drum towers left over from ancient China.

Xi'an Drum Tower is built on a square base. It is a brick-and-wood structure. The top is in the form of a double eaves. It has a total height of 36 meters and covers an area of 1377 square meters. There are stairs that can be spiraled up. The eaves are covered with dark green glazed tiles. The building is painted with gold, painted with carved beams, and has a gilded roof on the top. It is a landmark building in Xi'an.

Nowadays, on the base of the Drum Tower, there are drums with twenty-four solar terms. In ancient times, Xi'an City in the Ming Dynasty had a circumference of 11.9 kilometers and an area of 8.7 square kilometers. The Drum Tower was located in the southwest of the central part of Xi'an City. In order to spread drums throughout the city, high-rise buildings and large drums had to be built. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, most of the Gulou were surrounded by yamen at all levels in Shaanxi Province and Xi'an Prefecture. The office of these yamen and the life of the surrounding residents were inseparable from drums, and drums became the most familiar sound to people at that time.

Downstairs is Xi'an's famous food street-Hui Street. In addition, at different times, chimes will be played here, which is still very unique. On the inside side, there are famous drums from all over the country, which also allows tourists to gain a lot of knowledge.

The building form of the Drum Tower is a mountain style with double eaves and three drops of water. The Drum Tower is rectangular and is divided into two floors. The first floor is equipped with waist eaves and peace seats, and the second floor is a double-eaves Xieshan roof, covered with gray tiles and trimmed with green glazed tiles. The upper and lower floors are each 7 rooms wide and 3 rooms deep, surrounded by corridors. The roof is the crown of ancient Chinese architecture. Under the third eaves of the Drum Tower, a plaque hangs in the north and south, with the south being the "Place of Prosperity of Civil and Military Affairs" and the north being the inscription "Sound in the Sky".

Pavilion buildings are one of the most numerous and richest types of buildings in the world in China.

Entering the hall, the theme of Qin culture--Daqin Small Banquet

The True Love Lishan Daqin Small Banquet located on Fenghuang Avenue, Lintong District is a local creative restaurant in Xi'an. It mainly focuses on the theme of Qin culture, which can be seen from the welcoming staff wearing Qin costumes in front of the restaurant. For tourists, they only come to Xi'an to see the majestic side of the Qin people. For a foodie, tasting the Qin people's food is something that cannot be missed.

But in terms of the style of the restaurant, it is very unique. If you don't look carefully, it will seem like it is in the Qin Culture Museum. A group of more than ten of us was arranged in this largest "private room"; what came into view was the spacious space with a row of long tables, with a set of chimes and a guzheng on both sides. The waiter in the private room dressed the diners in Qin clothes. Foodies who love beauty cannot wait to experience the wonderful music of the chimes.

Before starting a meal, people wearing Qin Dynasty costumes will have a ceremony to open a meal, full of ceremonial feelings. The style of the dishes is very novel and refined. It's very unlike the style of the Northwest; the restaurant specializes in Qin banquets, and when serving, wear Qin clothes and take photos, which is suitable for inviting friends from other places to eat.

In fact, this restaurant's main dishes are "set meals"-especially the Qin set meals at 259 per person; such as spring water matsutake mushroom soup, five-county delicacies, Daqin steak, gold thread oil tower, five blessings cakes, etc. After eating, you can take your menu and stamp it with the "Imperial Seal" seal. It is still very distinctive.

The restaurant has also won various awards and honors, making it a restaurant worth checking in for tourists when coming to Xi'an. Except for the mutton steamed buns on the street, this place is still very good.

Mirror Jian means looking in the mirror, inspecting, and warning. Taizong said to his ministers: "Use copper as a mirror to straighten your clothes; use the past as a mirror to know the rise and fall; use people as a mirror to understand the gains and losses." Later, when Wei Zheng died, Taizong shed tears and said,"If Wei Zheng is gone, I will die!"

If Xi'an is the capital of Shaanxi, then Yongxingfang is the "main store" of Shaanxi's food industry. Yongxingfang not only regards the buildings of Lifang Culture as the focus of protection, but also regards the urban humanistic spirit of Shaanxi's intangible food culture as the core of exploration and protection. Make full use of the profound cultural heritage of Millennium Lifang, take Shaanxi folk culture as the connotation, and use the Ming and Qing Dynasty antique architectural communities as the carrier to create a comprehensive and special tourist business card integrating folk leisure, sightseeing, food experience, intangible cultural heritage food museums, etc.

There is such a metaphor. On a trip to Xi'an for shopping and eating, you should come to Yongxing Square. At twelve o'clock in Chang 'an, eat here and there. In addition to intangible cultural heritage food, there are also intangible cultural heritage culture and crafts, such as horse spoon facial makeup, wheat straw painting, paper-cutting, shadow puppets, and cloth art; these can be purchased near the Yongxingfang archway.

In Yongxing Square, there are Shannan Tower, Shanbei Tower, Guanzhong Tower, etc.; Yongxing Square, like Hui Street, is a place where delicious food is gathered. Food is the most important thing for the people. Our Chinese food culture can be described as extensive and profound. Coming to Greater Xi'an, which has profound history and culture, the food also brings together the essence of Shaanxi. It turned out to be the residence of the famous strategist Wei Zheng. Who is Wei Zheng? It turned out to be a member of Li Jiancheng, Prince of the Eastern Palace. Later, after the changes in Xuanwu Gate, he was brought under Li Shimin and became a member of the King of Qin. Let's not waste more time on Li Shimin and Wei Zheng's matters here. We just talk about the burial tomb of Li Shimin's Zhaoling tomb. Wei Zheng buried it close to Li Shimin, which shows his status.

The restaurant is divided into upstairs and downstairs, with decorative paintings and table murals with Shaanxi characteristics. Here are must-eat gourd chicken, Shaanxi stewed vegetables, oil cakes, Wei Fu three-in-one, cold rice noodles, oily crispy pork, etc.

The Yongxingfang Intangible Cultural Heritage Food Museum introduces the simple and colorful folk life of Lao Shaanxi and the long-standing Shaanxi intangible cultural heritage food culture through systematic displays such as food simulation molds, multimedia interactive videos, intangible cultural heritage handmade clay sculptures, and restoration of farm scenes.
