Let's go for a City walk this holiday. The Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays are upon us, and with the long break, I'm planning a City walk for the holiday. This time, my destination is Xi'an, a city that carries a thousand years of history, and among its historical treasures, Huaqing Palace shines the brightest. Are you ready to join me on an adventure through time?! The Terracotta Army Museum is a must-visit, showcasing the terracotta warriors of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Huang. It offers a glimpse into ancient Chinese military and culture, and Huaqing Palace, with its profound historical significance and beautiful landscapes, attracts me even more!! Huaqing Palace Tracing back to the Tang Dynasty, it was built around 747 AD. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang built the palace on Mount Huaqing to avoid political strife, using it as a summer retreat and royal palace. Strolling through the ancient buildings and exquisite gardens, you can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery but also take various photos. Be sure to explore the palace, gardens, lakes, and more. Lishan Lishan is part of Huaqing Palace. Head to the mountain top at sunset to enjoy the afterglow, which is incredibly beautiful. If you're lucky, you might also witness the magnificent mountain scenery on a misty morning. Huaqing Performance During the day, we enjoy the beauty of mountains and rivers, and at night, we can appreciate a magnificent Huaqing performance. The renditions of 'The Song of Everlasting Sorrow' and '12·12 Xi'an Incident Live-Action Drama' are splendid, vividly presenting the history and legendary stories of the Tang Dynasty. Accommodation The journey begins with accommodation, and this time I've chosen the Xi'an Huaqing Yutang Hotel, which feels like entering a Tang Dynasty court. Upgrading the trip to a royal experience with hot springs and a vacation, you can enjoy the tranquility of the palace and the fragrance of the hot springs. Cuisine This time, I unexpectedly tasted the unique flavors of Shaanxi cuisine at Huaqing Palace's Imperial Kitchen Garden. Trying the famous Shaanxi dishes, while enjoying the food, I listened to stories about Tang Dynasty culture and history, deeply immersing myself in the atmosphere of Huaqing Palace. Huaqing Palace is a wonderful place that takes you back to the Tang Dynasty. Embark on a time-traveling adventure and discover the charm of Huaqing Palace!
