The theater is not big, but the performance is very exciting! The one I went to happened to receive foreign tour groups. The hosts were all bilingual. The whole venue was full of cheers! Light singing and dancing, silk bamboo, let me also experience a song and dance of ancient royal nobles. Compared with the famous performance, I prefer such a pure national art performance, a bit like the difference between traffic stars and old artists, no technology, all ruthless! There are many intangible performances I have seen for the first time, I really feel that the national is the best!

Shanxi Gewu Da Theater

Performances

I have seen both performances at the Shaanxi Song Grand Theatre, and they are all very exciting! The theater is not big. Tang Lewu just received foreign tour groups. The hosts are all bilingual. The whole venue is full of seats and full of applause! Light singing and mandating, scorpion silk bamboo, let me also experience the singing and dancing of an ancient royal noble. The Qin doll has shadow play, puppet play, Qin accent, opera, and a host full of local characteristics. The whole scene is full of old artists of national-level actors, although the audience is not large, but still work hard to perform. Compared with the famous performance, I prefer such a pure national art performance, a bit like the difference between traffic stars and old artists, no technology, all ruthless! There are many intangible performances I have seen for the first time, I really feel that the national is the best! Unfortunately, too many people have not appreciated such a high level of performance. I sincerely hope that in the future, our intangible stage can be full of seats, and the venue is full. We have been inheriting the national cultural heritage of Shaanxi, so that more people can enjoy such a great performance!

Amazing show in the cooling evening breeze of Huaqing Palace. With the mountains as the backdrop, the show was a spectacular one that took our breath away with the elaborated stage, special effects, props, costumes, and graceful performances by the performers. Most importantly is the cultural context at the exact place of this story. My kids asked if we could watch it again the next evening!

As the largest and most complete ancient city in China, Xi&#39;an City Wall has long surpassed the simple architectural entity, but has condensed the symbol of history, culture, military wisdom and the city spirit.

Xi'an Bell Tower

令狐  aq

Fifty packages of tickets go to the Drum Tower first and then go to the Bell Tower. In fact, there is no need to go to the long-distance observation that you have not seen it. Foreign friends can go up once, and locals should not go! Nothing to see!

The scenery is beautiful and the night view is worth seeing. It is a big problem to eat in the park. I have no choice but to choose KFC, but there is a staff member inside, we are a group of 9 people, she is busy.
