#travelinginchina Xi'an is a city that perfectly blends ancient charm with symmetrical aesthetics. Here are some spots that show this charm: 1. Bell Tower: Standing at the heart of the city, its square shape and four - faced design are a wonder of symmetry. The surrounding roads radiate out symmetrically, creating a harmonious urban layout. 2. Yongning Gate: The main south gate of Xi'an City Wall. The gate tower and the wall's structure on both sides are symmetrically arranged, giving a sense of solemnity and order. 3. Big Wild Goose Pagoda: Its seven - story structure has a strict symmetrical design. The square base and the evenly - spaced eaves on each floor make it a prime example of ancient Chinese symmetrical architecture. These places not only reflect the scientific and aesthetic concepts of ancient people but also allow modern visitors to feel the unique charm of Chang'an's symmetrical aesthetics. #travel #trip #localguides #familytrip #historicallandmarks

[Rainbow] Scenic spot features: Yongning Gate of Xi'an City Wall, also known as the South Gate by locals, is a must-visit place for tourists to Xi'an. This place has been a place for receiving important guests since ancient times. When you come to Xi'an, you can climb the city wall from Yongning Gate. The opening ceremony outside the city gate is also worth seeing. 🌟Highlights: During the Spring Festival, it is best to avoid climbing the city wall from Yongning Gate to watch the lantern show. There are a total of six major areas for the lantern show, three on the east and three on the west of Yongning Gate. From Yongning Gate, one side will not be visible or the route will be heavy, so it is recommended to go up from Hanguang Gate and down from Wenchang Gate, or vice versa. This way you can avoid the few people, no queues, and no backtracking. 📝Note tips: There are many good places to take photos around Yongning Gate of the city wall. If you want to take a panoramic photo of the Yongning Gate, there is a good place to take photos. This location is located on the observation deck on the 5th floor of Heshenghui in the southeast corner. Especially in the evening, you can take photos of the night lights on the entire city wall from the observation deck!

1-30 I landed in Xi'an on the afternoon of the second day of the Chinese New Year. I booked an airport pick-up service on Ctrip and was taken directly to the hotel. We chose Xi'an Yirong Hotel, which is very close to Sajin Bridge. After checking in, we went to Sajin Bridge to eat. The cold noodles are different from those in Shanghai. They look spicy but taste delicious. I recommend them [ThumbsUp]. The mutton skewers are cut directly from the lamb legs and roasted. They are delicious [ThumbsUp]. Chang'an Hulu tastes good and looks good. The children like it very much [ThumbsUp]. Eat delicious food at Sajin Bridge. Take three stops at the subway station at the intersection to the Yongningmen city wall (need to transfer). The lights on the city wall are very beautiful. Recommended! There were a lot of people during the Spring Festival, and it was quite tiring to queue up to get in. After climbing up the city wall, we rested for a long time and then started to stroll around. The light show was good, and there were many cultural and creative shops. The city wall was too long, so we only visited part of it and then went down, but it felt enough. I bought some oil tea on the city wall. The girl was very pretty, but I couldn't get used to the taste of the oil tea. It tasted like soaked fried dough twist. I don't recommend it.

There are various small performances in the Grand Tang Mall, and you can watch them while walking, as if you have returned to the Tang Dynasty.) Day 3️⃣ Yongning Gate - Yongxingfang - Defu Lane - Shuyuanmen (The snacks in Yongxingfang are too commercialized; Defu Lane is good for taking photos; Shuyuanmen has a strong New Year atmosphere, with old men writing Spring Festival couplets on the spot, and various cultural and creative products with high cost performance.) Day 4️⃣ Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum - SEG Plaza (SEG Plaza has the largest indoor waterfall in Asia, and the mall also has parrots, ducks, swans, rabbits, and koi fish. Kids love it!)

There are pigeons and kittens in the temple, which are very cute!) 🌟Food: For Shaanxi cuisine, I went to "Chang'an Food Street" (the gourd chicken is crispy and delicious, and there are performances at certain times! Singing and dancing, poetry, and shadow puppetry, very interesting!) For snacks, I went to "Yuanjia Village" (more than a dozen kinds of snacks, each with a stall, and you can get a full table for just a few dozen yuan.) For barbecue, I went to "Halal Ganggang Barbecue" (beef and mutton skewers for one yuan each, and they bring a bunch to the table and ask how many you want, amazing!) For roujiamo, I went to "Qinyu Roujiamo" (I met a local uncle who said he had been eating here since he was a child, so I came to the right place!) For lamb paomo, I went to "Lao Anjia Paomo" (a restaurant where I saw local uncles and aunts eating, and they serve a bowl of sweet garlic with the paomo, authentic! There is a beef pie shop next door, 6 yuan each, with a lot of meat, crispy and delicious!) 🌟I was impressed: Whether it was the young lady who helped me carry my suitcase at the subway station, the friendly uncle who chatted and made recommendations at the restaurant, or the kind and friendly ride-hailing driver, they all made me feel the beautiful humanistic atmosphere of Xi'an, in addition to its rich history! Xi'an is worth visiting again!

You can try on more Hanfu, visit more places, and take more photos. Be sure to bring your own comfortable shoes! You will walk a lot in Hanfu, or your feet will hurt!

What I Did Right on My Trip to Xi'an|||1. Accommodation I recommend staying near the Bell Tower and Drum Tower, or near the Muslim Quarter. We stayed in the Muslim Quarter, and the driver told us that cars are not allowed in the Muslim Quarter. We stayed for three days, and our daily transportation was a small electric car, which can seat four people. It costs CNY 10 to get from the middle of the street to the Bell Tower. This location is convenient for getting around, and it's easy to return things the next day after getting your makeup done. 2. Makeup The four of us all got our makeup done at Yizhou Shopping Mall, but you don't have to go to the same store. Each store has its own popular styles, so you can check them out online in advance and choose according to your preferences. The popular styles at each store are easier for them to do and less likely to go wrong. 3. Itinerary I recommend my itinerary if you want to get your makeup done. Day 1 (travel light and wear comfortable shoes) After lunch at 11:00, find a place to go up the city wall and take some photos before getting your makeup done, and have some fun. After getting your makeup done, you'll feel heavy and it will be inconvenient to walk for a long time. Go to get your makeup done at around 13:30. We went to Yizhou Shopping Mall, which is close to the city wall and the Bell Tower. After getting your makeup done, you can go to the city wall to take photos (Yongning Gate). At 17:00, get off at Yongning Gate, where there is a bus stop. The double-decker bus is a shuttle bus between the Bell Tower and the Great Tang All Day Mall, and costs CNY 10 per person for a round trip. Arrive at the Great Tang All Day Mall at around 18:00, and go shopping and watch performances. We went to the Chang'an Twelve Hours, which is generally recommended. You can go there if you want to take photos. Before getting off the bus, ask the driver how often the bus runs at night, and take the bus back to the Bell Tower in time to take photos of the Bell Tower at night. Day 2 When you return your clothes to Yizhou Shopping Mall in the morning, you can go to the Bell Tower to take photos of the popular transition. Then take the shuttle bus next to the Bell Tower to see the Terracotta Warriors. The journey takes about an hour, and costs more than CNY 30 per person, including a tour guide. I think the service is good and the tour guide is very professional. There is only a sales session for Hetian jade at the end, which you can skip. Finally, you can try more food and drinks. Overall, I think the food is quite good.

Xi'an is really a great place to visit in winter! It’s easier to take photos when there are fewer people! : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :

How to describe this homestay? It looks simple and sounds quiet. 🌬We can't escape the city, so let's find a way to live in seclusion in the city. I prefer to call Xi'an Chang'an. It has too much history and too much fireworks. Store name: Douxing Homestay 🔔 All homestay platforms 🔍 Douxing Homestay.

|360-degree aerial rotating bar! . The top floor view at 28 floors is the best place to view the entire Xi'an! ! ! You definitely can’t miss this bar on the top floor, Q28F, Changxin Leading International, No. 95, Nanguanzheng Street, Nanmenwai! When the sun sets, walk into this bar and you can see the entire Chang'an city illuminated by the afterglow of the setting sun, which is a beautiful sight. As night falls, the lights at Yongning Gate come on, and coupled with the lantern festival on the city wall, the scene can only be described as spectacular. The 360-degree view of Chang'an City is truly amazing! Especially at night, when the lights come on, the seats will slowly rotate starting at 10 pm. Order a cocktail, drink and chat with friends, and feel the charm of Chang'an City at night. It is super healing.
