This is a highly recommended place! This is my second time visiting, and I'm thrilled to see such amazing ancient artifacts! It's a wonderful display of history and culture, an important site for historical research, and a secret base for historical exploration. I'm incredibly excited and highly recommend it!
Innovative technology being deployed to build the terracottaarmy more than 2000 years ago! An eye-opener and understanding its history. Definitely worth the visit.

A very meaningful visit, showcasing the exquisite beauty of ancient Chinese sculpture art, which is of great historical significance and value 👍🏻 Beautiful environment and excellent cultural atmosphere.
We arrived almost at closing time. Please not during winter hours the place will be closed at 18:00 and last entry at 17:00 pm. Quite a long walk from the gate to the main attraction and some parts were under renovation. Not recommended for people with limited miobily because it involves lots of steep stairs and long walks.

It was a great experience, not just for ordinary people. The scenery was beautiful, and it even snowed. If you're climbing in snowy weather, be sure to bring crampons in advance. It was just a pity that the West Peak cable car was undergoing its annual inspection, and the itinerary was too tight. The staff on the mountain were also very responsible. There were fewer people during the off-season. The two of us girls were climbing towards the West Peak cable car, and there were fewer and fewer people as we went. They were worried that something might happen to us, so they even led us for a while.
West to North to West / North to West to West: This is a classic one-day tour route. After checking your ticket at the Huashan Visitor Center, take the cable car to enter the mountain from either the West Peak or the North Peak, and then take the cable car down from either the North Peak or the West Peak. The whole trip takes about 6 hours and allows you to visit various attractions.

Worth it🤩🤩. Amazing performance, traditional choreography, wonderful melody . A mix of Modern and classic . A must see show . #memories, #Broadway Chinese version
Definitely worth a visit! The spectacle is spectacular! The moment the entire mountain lit up, the entire audience erupted in cheers.
Sitting outdoors in winter can be quite cold, so remember to dress warmly.
But the performance is absolutely amazing and definitely worth seeing!

Aside from the rainy day, everything else was great. The only thing was that we came across the Jinci Temple, a place covered in a high school or middle school textbook, and we thought it was worth visiting. The temple itself is very rich in content, and there are other attractions nearby, but because it was raining, we could only visit a few of those places.
It was fantastic! We hired a tour guide who explained the history and origins of Jinci Temple as we walked. The guide was excellent! 😊 We spent about two hours exploring the temple grounds and surrounding area. I especially loved the architecture and trees.

Hukou Waterfall, the second largest waterfall in China and the world's largest yellow waterfall, is renowned for its magnificent spectacle, described as "the Yellow River flowing for a thousand miles, all contained in a single pot." A visit here is definitely worthwhile!

Climbing the Bell Tower of Xi'an
Amidst the music and music, guests arrive and the scenery unfolds before my eyes.
The four directions still draw the imperial carriages, high pavilions vie for the sky.
Beyond Jieshi and Huashan, the setting sun shines on the Wei River.
The winter chill makes the return journey long, I stand for a long time as dusk rises.
Xi'an Citywalk | A Time Machine After a Carb-Filled Walk
As dusk settled, I emerged from the Yongningmen subway station and looked up—wow! The golden roof of the Bell Tower was bathed in the glow of the sunset, looking like amber—absolutely stunning!
This old building, dating back to the Ming Dynasty, is now gently embraced by glass curtain walls and a sunken plaza, both ancient and modern. In the Line 5 transfer passage, a Ming Dynasty ceremonial guard is "walking" on an AR wall, with vermilion palace lanterns and neon signs lighting up together, surprisingly harmoniously.
On the basement level, the food market is filled with the irresistible aroma of biangbiang noodles with chili oil. Next door, at Shaanxi Shisan, young people are queuing up to try the fermented rice flavored ice cream—it's all so novel! On the third-floor observation deck, donning VR glasses, the morning bell and evening drum of the Bell Tower and the drone show at Yongning Gate "fold" before your eyes. A blogger in Hanfu walks past under the eaves, the sounds of wind chimes and helicopters mingling in the wind—it's incredibly captivating!
This is the Bell Tower as seen through my eyes—unpretentious and unpretentious, seamlessly blending old traditions with modern life, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the aroma of food and the interplay of light and shadow, experiencing Chang'an firsthand.

It was a very average experience. Without seeing the performances, the ticket price didn't seem worth it, but the performances cost extra, resulting in low attendance and a lack of vibrancy. The overall experience wasn't great, and they need to adjust their operational strategy. The only redeeming quality was that it was suitable for taking photos in traditional Chinese costumes because there were fewer people.
It's best to go in around dusk; it doesn't look as beautiful during the day as it does at night with the lights on. Standing on the Ziyun Tower, you can watch the sunset and see the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. During the off-season, it's less crowded, making for great photos. In the evenings, there are many people taking Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) photoshoots. The overall environment is nice, and there are restrooms everywhere, making it a great place for a family trip. There's very little information about the performances and events within the park; there's only a map at the entrance, which means we didn't see many performances. We heard announcements, but we didn't know where they were. Aside from that, everything else is quite nice.
