Song of Everlasting Sorrow

Guys, you have to see this! The Song of Everlasting Sorrow in Xi'an is amazing! Guys, if you come to Xi'an, you can miss other things, but you can't miss the Song of Everlasting Sorrow at Huaqing Palace! It's not far from Huaqingchi Subway Station, just a few minutes' walk away. Huaqing Palace is a famous place where the emperors of the Tang Dynasty used to bathe and play. It's located by the mountains and the Wei River, and it's a huge place. At night, when the lights are on, the ancient buildings become mysterious, as if you have traveled back to the Tang Dynasty. This atmosphere is perfect for the Song of Everlasting Sorrow. The Song of Everlasting Sorrow is based on Bai Juyi's poem, which tells the love story of Emperor Xuanzong and Yang Guifei. The performance takes place at the Nine Dragon Lake in Huaqing Palace, and it's really impressive. At the beginning, the lights illuminate the lake, and Yang Guifei dances in the fountain, wearing a gorgeous dress like a fairy. This part shows their sweet love. But then, the An Lushan Rebellion breaks out, and everything falls apart. The soldiers shout and the horses neigh, and Emperor Xuanzong has no choice but to order Yang Guifei's death. The actors perform so well that you can feel Xuanzong's helplessness and Guifei's despair, and it makes your heart ache. In the end, Xuanzong and Guifei meet in a dream. The moon is big and round, and the smoke is floating around. They look at each other with longing. This performance is amazing, with beautiful stage design, exquisite costumes, and great acting, plus the natural background of Huaqing Palace. It's really worth seeing! If you come to Xi'an, you must go and see it, and feel this love story from a thousand years ago! 🏠Address: Huaqing Palace, No. 38 Huaqing Road, Lintong District, Xi'an
