What travelers say:
In a hurry, I went to a place before leaving. In fact, if there is enough time, I can stay there for a long time to take a look and take pictures. I hope that I will have a good chance to go and feel the scenery again next time.

There are bicycle rental services at each of the 4 gates; North, South, East and West, for you to rent and to return. The best way to tour this ancient city is by bicycle as it is even allowed on top of the circumvallation. After that you can always hop into the sightseeing electric cars to loop through the rest of the city of which the entire journey will take about 50 minutes.

The gold lecturer group of Xi'an Kunpeng International Travel Agency ordered by our family, the tour guide surnamed Kunpeng, I think he is very good, very humorous, and very friendly. The explanation is also very good. And we are sitting in the first class model of the black King Kong bus, very comfortable. Our lunch is divided into meals, and their company owns the restaurant. Clean and hygienic, and our Terracotta Warriors and Horses gold lecturer Da Qin is very knowledgeable, speaks gentle, very magnetic, the weather is very hot, but everyone listens with relish, and finally let’s talk about the resurrected legion, and the one is the Xi’an Incident. It is very suitable for supporting cultural publicity for these two scenic spots, which is very good! Today's group report is really good, and I will choose their home next time!
Yes, the very old city wall is said to be the largest and oldest existing city wall site in China. Standing on the ancient city wall and really feeling the wisdom and infrastructure ability of the ancients is also very good. Such a large amount of project needs many people to complete it collectively.
First of all, the dream Chang'an performance is very shocking and worth a look, but because we can't find the way from other places, we can't tell the scene staff clearly. After looking for a long time, we almost didn't go in. The ability and quality of the on-site security personnel is not good, and the personnel can't be effectively guided to find the way. So in summary, the performance staff is very good, the performance is very good, the on-site security staff, the security staff express ability is very poor, and the customer is very impatient.
With the historical and cultural background of the Tang Dynasty, the annual light festivals covering dance, flash, behavioral art, and situational interaction have different themes, such as "Lighting warm Chang'an Longqi Chinese Year" light festival is not only a visual feast, but also a cultural experience. You can enjoy the lights while feeling the strong Spring Festival atmosphere and the charm of Chinese traditional culture.

It’s not the first time I’ve come to Xi’an, but I’ve been back to the city wall every time and I like it very much. After the ticket is bought, you can swipe your ID card to enter and exit repeatedly within the same day. This is particularly good. This time we went to the sunset and sunset. After shopping, we went downstairs for dinner and brushed the city wall to see the night view of the city. There is no special flavor snack.
