A 24-hour chat on the Chang'an City Wall 🌅 At dawn, I climbed the city wall from Yongning Gate. The brick pavement gleamed amber in the morning light. I rented a mint-green motorcycle by scanning a QR code, and rode to Hanguang Gate. A newly installed AR screen flashed an image of a Persian camel caravan; the sound of hooves mingled with the car horns on the South Gate roundabout, and for a moment, I lost track of time. ☀️ At midday, I strolled from Zhongshan Gate to Yongxingfang. The Chengcheng mutton soup stall, a traditional intangible cultural heritage spot, had a broth as clear as a mirror. The crescent-shaped pancakes were best eaten by tearing them into pieces and soaking them in the broth. At the Chang'an Stove near the South Gate, the gourd chicken was fried to a crispy exterior and tender interior. Sitting by the window, I could see the upturned eaves of the barbican. For 80 yuan per person, I enjoyed a feast fit for a grand Tang Dynasty banquet. 🌇When returning the car in the dark, I discovered a new monster-themed charging station at the West Gate. A quick scan with WeChat and I could borrow one. The moat's boats, carrying the twilight, crossed the bridge; the lanterns on the bar street lit up in a flash; a young woman sang "Xi'an People's Song" with her guitar; and the evening breeze was filled with the aroma of chili oil. 🏙️A few more words: The AR projection at the southwest corner of the city is amazing; the shadow puppet show at Yongxingfang starts at 7:30, don't forget; the elevator at Hanguang Gate is perfect for families with young children. #ThirteenDynastiesCityWallChat #YongxingfangIsBeautiful #AncientAndModernBikeTravel

The Tang Dynasty Never Sleeping City is not only a tourist attraction but also a carrier of cultural heritage. It regularly hosts cultural activities such as Tang poetry recitals and traditional musical instrument performances, allowing visitors to gain a deeper understanding of the literary and artistic achievements of the Tang Dynasty while enjoying their visit.

Booked the tickets with a drum performance at 7 pm. Reached Tang Paradise at 4 pm to take some photos at the garden before watching the drum performance. Enjoyed the performance. It was in a small cozy theatre. Actual musicians performed in the performance.

Xi'an Citywalk | A Time Machine After a Carb-Filled Walk As dusk settled, I emerged from the Yongningmen subway station and looked up—wow! The golden roof of the Bell Tower was bathed in the glow of the sunset, looking like amber—absolutely stunning! This old building, dating back to the Ming Dynasty, is now gently embraced by glass curtain walls and a sunken plaza, both ancient and modern. In the Line 5 transfer passage, a Ming Dynasty ceremonial guard is "walking" on an AR wall, with vermilion palace lanterns and neon signs lighting up together, surprisingly harmoniously. On the basement level, the food market is filled with the irresistible aroma of biangbiang noodles with chili oil. Next door, at Shaanxi Shisan, young people are queuing up to try the fermented rice flavored ice cream—it's all so novel! On the third-floor observation deck, donning VR glasses, the morning bell and evening drum of the Bell Tower and the drone show at Yongning Gate "fold" before your eyes. A blogger in Hanfu walks past under the eaves, the sounds of wind chimes and helicopters mingling in the wind—it's incredibly captivating! This is the Bell Tower as seen through my eyes—unpretentious and unpretentious, seamlessly blending old traditions with modern life, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the aroma of food and the interplay of light and shadow, experiencing Chang'an firsthand. #AncientTowerNewFashion #CarbsAndCyber ​​#SixHundredYearsInAGlance

Approaching the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, its ancient and solemn structure stands tall and majestic, having withstood a thousand years of history. Climbing the pagoda offers a panoramic view of Xi'an, a truly expansive vista. Nearby, the solemn statue of Xuanzang stands nearby, while the vibrant Tang Dynasty City Never Sleeps exudes a lively atmosphere. Strolling through the park, the air is filled with the scent of incense, and the interplay of ancient architecture and light creates a scene that is both historically weighty and bustling with life. Quietly appreciating the fusion of the old and the new, one feels a sense of peace and creates an unforgettable experience.

Venue rather small than expected, but immersive experience with the many NPCs makes the visit really worthwhile. Looked high & low in Xi’an for 火晶柿子 from the drama series, but it can only be found here! Highly recommended to try it, indeed delicious. Also recommend 石头拌饭 in the food street. At times may feel somewhat constrained due to the small venue cos not that much space to stroll around & different performances take place on rotation more or less around same spots, but despite so can still easily spend an entire day here if chasing after the various scheduled performances. Will still come here again when next visit Xi’an!

It was quite spectacular. We went to the Bell Tower first; the Drum Tower is very close, only a few minutes' walk away. When we got to the Drum Tower, we found out that two items could be purchased together for 50 yuan. Not knowing this beforehand, we had to pay an extra 30 yuan. The service was still lacking!

The overall architectural style is well preserved, and the lantern festival is also very beautiful. However, the scenic area is very large, and there are relatively few cable cars, making it inconvenient to visit with elderly people.

I'm here today to see "The Great Qin Dynasty," a must-see theater in Xi'an! Even before entering the venue, there were already many surprises. And now there's even a snow scene!
