    Five-star review A huge thumbs-up to Xiaoying, the guide at the Qin and Han Museum! Her explanations were clear and logical, moving from the foundation of the Qin system with its "standardized script and standardized wheel gauge" to the formation of the Han dynasty with its "predominantly Confucian" ideology. She placed the artifacts in a historical context, interspersed with trivia. She was both professional and approachable, proactively guiding us through details and answering questions, bringing the artifacts to life. This tour truly allowed me to understand the grandeur of the Qin and Han dynasties. It was a truly satisfying experience!

    Fun experience with movable seats, theatrical performances, interesting theatrics and novelties such as camels and doggos acting as wolves. Storyline wise, it is "slightly" exaggerated and contrived but this is acceptable as it allows a wider range of performances and costumes.

    It's pretty good. The performance time is tight, one hour is just right. The story content is relatively simple, suitable for all ages, and the scene is also grand, suitable for family viewing.

    My best friend and I came to Xi'an Eternal Love Show specifically for the performance. We were surprised by how photogenic the scenery was; every corner felt like stepping back in time. The performance itself was a visual feast—the costumes were gorgeous, the special effects were amazing, and the flood scene was breathtaking! We were left wanting more after the show. We even picked up some small jewelry items at the street shops. The staff saw us with so many bags taking pictures and even helped us look after our belongings—so thoughtful!

    The whole experience was great. We didn't hire a tour guide and were traveling independently. The show was already in the afternoon. The customer service was very considerate and called to let us know the remaining showtimes. They also arranged a free car to take us from the Terracotta Warriors to the theater entrance. After arriving at the theater, we were treated like VIPs and sat in the first row the whole time! The experience was really great hahaha
