Lucruri de făcut în Xi'an

Ce excursie minunată. A fost ca o călătorie în timp să vizitez Muzeul Războinicilor de Teracotă. Am învățat mai multe despre istoria împăratului Qin Shi Huang, care a ordonat crearea unui mormânt imens cu mii de războinici pentru a-l proteja în viața de apoi. A fost impresionant să văd de aproape sculpturile de lut, fiecare cu detalii unice și expresii diferite. Și mai impresionant a fost să aflu că împăratul era atât de obsedat de nemurire încât a ajuns să consume mercur, crezând că va trăi pentru totdeauna. Un loc plin de istorie, mister și grandoare. Cu adevărat nu voi uita această zi 😊

guide Ruby is good and friendly - she will ask if we want to join the VX experience of underground palace - which is a AI tomb of Emperor Qin. additional cost of RMB150 which I think is ok but does not justify the price we paid. I’d rather spend the time walking around the town alone. it’s one of those things that guides do for extra income so it’s understandable. the Everlasting Sorrow show is a must! the seat we got is middle seat. I think watching the second show is better but which means will finish late. we watched the 8.10pm show and we got back to the hotel by 10.30pm. huaqing palace is more like a man made palace with the old pools in place. I would say overall a good trip. low peak season but the terracotta was packed!

欣欣 is an interesting guide. though we are lost at times, she is responsive and quick to ensure we are not unfound. the place is interactive, with many pits of the terracotta to be found and see.

If you are going to Xi’an and currently considering to join the tour or in between several tour options, TRUST MEEEE just join this one. If you are not staying near Bell Tower, Bell Tower Hotel is very very easy to locate, the drive back and forth was smooth, the trip itself was amaaaaaazing with Chelsea as the guide❤️ would 10/10 recommend this tour! (not to mention, the lunch was great and abundant!)

After watching "赳赳大秦 (The Qin Empire)," I didn't feel excitement, but a deep sense of heaviness. It's not just a simple glorification of the empire's strength, but it allows you to see how a country is built step by step through discipline, fear, sacrifice, and belief. Qin is cold and ruthless. But precisely because of this, it was able to stand its ground in a chaotic world. Standing in front of the stage, watching the momentum of thousands of troops, I suddenly understood: "赳赳 (Jiū Jiū)" is not arrogance, but a choice forced out by the times. Behind the strength lies the silence of countless nameless people; behind the unification are individual destinies that can never return. This is not a performance that makes people feel relaxed, but a reminder that the weight of history is never romantic.

It was a truly enjoyable experience. Tickets are usually very difficult to get, but I was able to purchase them easily and affordably, and the guide was incredibly kind. Any minor communication difficulties were easily resolved with Papago. If you come to Xi'an, I believe the Shaanxi History Museum is a must-visit, provided you can secure a reservation. It was a truly wonderful experience.

Dacă călătoriți în Xi'an, China, Teracota și spectacolul Chang Han Ge sunt, fără îndoială, atracțiile principale. Am căutat pe diverse platforme și am constatat că biletele VIP erau disponibile doar pe Klook, așa că le-am achiziționat imediat. Biletele VIP oferă o intrare separată, un lounge unde puteți aștepta înainte de spectacol și ceai și cafea gratuite. Eram îngrijorat de spectacolul din februarie și m-am îmbrăcat gros, dar Xi'an în februarie a fost mai cald decât mă așteptam. Cel mai important, scaunele erau încălzite! De asemenea, ni s-a oferit ceai cald, așa că am putut urmări spectacolul fără să ne fie frig. A fost minunat.

Excellent tour by Grace and appreciate getting the tickets for the museum which are hard to get. Grace provided a huge amount of detailed information and history from the Shanxi Dynasties. We managed to see multiple ancient relics! Highly reccomended !

advise to visit in late afternoon. beautiful to watch the sunset. and then it's not hot anymore, nice to bike
