I went in the morning. There were a lot of people and the weather was hot. I entered the pit of No. 1 to see the terracotta warriors and horses. No. 2 and No. 3 were more spacious and not very crowded. It was worthy of being the eighth wonder of the world. I heard the explanation and learned history. It is worth seeing.
Visiting the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Emperor Mausoleum Museum, the biggest feeling is that the crowd is turbulent, and the queue under the hot sun is even more hot. The explanation in the museum is rich in content, but because the flow of people is too large, once the explanation is a little far away, the sound is covered up by the noise, and the sound is not very true. Although the experience has been affected, it is still deeply shocking to witness the magnificent terracotta warriors and horses, and the historical and cultural charm is unforgettable.

The city wall was very long. We walked around for almost two hours and only walked two kilometers. We visited a lot of cart shops for intangible souvenirs. However, there are bicycles to rent on, and larger children can ride completely.
It’s just to go up and feel the appearance of the city wall. In fact, there is nothing to see. The road is very wide and there are few people. They all go up to take pictures and punch in. After a short walk, I came down. Dozens of tickets are really not cost-effective.

With Mount Li as the scenery and the stars as the company✨
Go to the world to feast
Eternity may end, but this hatred will never end
(The 4xx ticket price for the Ctrip Central VIP Lounge is a bit disappointing. In fact, it is just a price increase to get a place with tea, air conditioning, etc. [snicker][snicker])
All the lights on Mount Li behind the stage were used for this performance, and the scene suddenly became larger. Real fireworks and fire-breathing represented war, and it was very realistic with the smoke of gunpowder. There were small clips everywhere, and the eyes were not enough to see them. It was just that the time between the two performances was too tight, and there was no time to give the actors a proper curtain call.

The scenery is nothing to say, the Xifeng cableway is also very thrilling, the whole process is very shocking! When I went down the mountain, the thunderstorms, the cableway stopped for more than an hour, and the staff issued small breads and other small foods, which is very worthy of recognition! Also, can the bus up and down the mountain not be a little faster? More than 30 drives throughout the whole process, which is almost the same as an electric car ᥬ😂᭄
The trip to Huashan was very good. It was picked up near the hotel in the morning. It was very punctual and the tour guide would call in advance to inform. After arriving at the scenic spot, the ticket was issued quickly and it went up the mountain soon. There are not so many people in the off-season now, basically no queue, that is, the carpooling returns in the afternoon, you may need to wait. The scenery on the mountain is very beautiful, we took the children to the west and north is a good challenge, it is worth recommending.

Overall, it is OK, but staying in Luoyang for a day at night will be super nervous. It is recommended to live in a scenic spot or a nearby hotel. If it is Luoyang, I take a car and pull the ropeway directly. The sculpture at the door cannot be seen. A lot of resources are wasted.
It is worth seeing. I personally feel that winter is more artistic. Now in summer, it is dark late. Generally, the projection cannot be seen after 8 pm. The lights on the golden roof are also beautiful. Although the tickets 🎫 cableway 🚡 add up to a little expensive, it is still very worthwhile and worthwhile.

Unexpectedly, the attractions at this price can be so great! Although not big, the design is very reasonable, clean and tidy, and the facilities are very new. The location is very good, very close to the subway station and convenient for travel. The service staff is friendly and the price is super high. It is highly recommended to friends with limited budgets! very good
The narrator is very serious, we are all tired and paralyzed, the narrator is still passionate, the logic is clear, it is not easy! There must be a narrator, otherwise it is all seen and white. 👍

During the day, you can watch various wonderful performances, like "Dream Back to Datang", dancers' costumes and dance postures, and the charm of Datang is everywhere. It was even more amazing at night, and the water curtain movies and light shows were super shocking. There are still many food stalls in the park, and you can come and have a copy when you are tired. Walking in the park, looking at people who come and go in Hanfu, as if they are also a member of this Chang'an City, so fun!

Shaanxi History Museum has a rich collection, and the following categories of collections are very distinctive: Shangzhou bronzeware such as Duoyouding, etc., both inscriptions and modeling values. The inscription on the bronze is an important data for studying the history of Shangzhou, and its shape reflects the superb casting process and aesthetic level at that time, reflecting the political, economic and cultural situation of Shangzhou period from one side. Tang Dynasty royal nobles tomb murals Tang Tomb murals are unique and precious collections of Shaanxi Libo, a total of more than 20 Tang tombs of murals of nearly 600, reaching more than 1,000 square meters. Themes cover the ritual and diplomatic scenes, etc., painted in the east wall of the tomb road of the prince Zhang Huai tomb, the "hunting travel map", the whole picture is composed of more than 40 horse riding characters, 2 camels, 5 ancient trees and mountain stones, the scene is magnificent, the composition is chic; The "Map of the Tower" painted on the tomb of Prince Suide shows the majestic style of the Tang Dynasty, which vividly reflects the political, military, cultural and life aspects of the Tang Dynasty society, and is an important physical material for studying the history and art of the Tang Dynasty. The past tao yu showed the crafts of tao, three colors, and shaped the image of Hu people and Jiashi. The craftsmanship and shape of Tao Wei reflects the aesthetic and social customs of different historical periods. Tang Sancai is a treasure of Tang Dynasty art. It is famous for its colorful ochre and vivid and realistic shape. Gold and silverware such as the Lotus petal gold bowl, platinum dance horse and cup silver pot, etc. The golden bowl of lotus petals is pure gold, the oyster is made, the shape is full and solemn, the niches are made of two layers of the lotus petals, each layer is ten pieces, the upper and lower outlines are combined, and each lotus petals unit is engraved with decorative patterns; The platinum dance horse cup-print silver pot reflects the superb gold and silverware production process and unique cultural connotation of the Tang Dynasty. The only onyx jade sculpture in the Tang Dynasty with a gold animal head is included in the "first batch of prohibited overseas exhibition cultural relics catalog". Its unique shape and exquisite craftsmanship are an unparalleled art treasure, with high historical, artistic and scientific value.
Walking into the Shaanxi History Museum, it seems like a journey through time that spans thousands of years. The museum's architecture itself is a work of art, and its simple and elegant style complements the cultural relics displayed in the museum.
Entering the exhibition hall, the dazzling array of cultural relics overwhelmed me. From pottery in ancient times to bronzes in the Qin and Han dynasties, from Tang Sancai to porcelain in the Ming and Qing dynasties, each one carries a heavy history. What shocked me most were the exquisite bronzes, which had strange shapes and exquisite patterns, as if telling ancient stories.
In the Tang Dynasty cultural relics exhibition area, I saw the famous Tang Sancai. Those colorful pottery figurines, camels and horses are vivid and lifelike, showing the prosperity and openness of the Tang Dynasty. And those exquisite gold, silver and jade wares make people marvel at the superb skills of ancient craftsmen.
In the museum, time seems to slow down. I stopped in front of each cultural relic, observed carefully, and tried to understand the history behind them. The Shaanxi History Museum is not only a place to display cultural relics, but also a vivid history book, which made me deeply feel the profoundness of Chinese civilization.

Enshi Grand Canyon''
Summer Mountains
Step into the secret wonderland of 30° north latitude,
In the epic of karst landforms,
Encounter the magnificent world of white clouds rising from the clear river and cliffs surrounding the peaks. Enshi Grand Canyon is free of charge for college entrance examination students across the country during the summer vacation. Come, I'm waiting for you in Enshi Grand Canyon!
In the breeze of early autumn, I stepped into the Enshi Grand Canyon and started a wonderful natural journey.
Walking along the winding mountain road, the view suddenly opened up and the spectacular canyon scenery came into view. The peaks are towering into the clouds, with various shapes, some like sharp swords pointing straight to the sky, and some like lotus buds waiting to bloom. Deep in the canyon, the clouds and mists are lingering, as if covering the earth with a layer of veil, adding a bit of mystery. The sun shines through the clouds, and the light and shadows are intertwined, which is beautiful.
I walked slowly along the plank road. There was a deep abyss under my feet, which was frightening, but when I looked up, the strange pines and rocks on the cliffs were amazing. When I came to Qixingzhai, the seven peaks were arranged in an orderly manner, like the Big Dipper in the sky, which was amazing. Standing on the observation deck, overlooking the entire canyon, the layers of mountains and gurgling streams formed a beautiful landscape painting.
The most unforgettable thing is the Yunlong Ground Crack. The crack is deep and long, with gurgling water. The rocks on both sides are washed smooth like mirrors by the water. Walking in the crack, looking up, you can only see a ray of skylight, as if you are in another world.
Enshi Grand Canyon is a masterpiece of nature. It makes me linger and feel the magnificence and magic of nature.

It is very suitable to bring children together. The whole scene is something that children will like. There are constant programs and NPCs. Chang'an has its own Disney~ There are Li Bai, Du Fu, and the colorful feather dance~ These are all programs that children chase after
I went there directly without making any travel plans. After walking around for a while, I thought it was just a place to take photos and buy things. I thought that I paid for the ticket just to visit a market where people spend money everywhere. Then three NPCs came out and enthusiastically reminded me that my son's rented parrot had pooped on it. I thought they didn't look like tourists, so I asked them if they were NPCs. They said yes, and then I knew there were NPCs, because many tourists were wearing Hanfu, so I thought they were all tourists. An NPC dressed as a monk told me to tell them apart by looking at their shoes. Later, another NPC told me that there were also shows. Then I knew how to have fun in this place. It was quite interesting. Thank you to all the enthusiastic and dedicated NPCs, otherwise I would have felt cheated.
