Seeking revenge for his father, he injured Second Master Zhang and fled to Qingfeng Stronghold, where he raised a band of outlaws to uphold justice and eliminate evil.

To eliminate Zhao Yunfeng and Qingfeng Stronghold once and for all, the security regiment gathered a large force to besiege the stronghold.

A battle for grain is about to begin... Act four: [Marching north] After the flood, the mountain stronghold was in complete disarray.

The two sides engaged in a fierce battle for the provisions at the station.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five-star review! Highly recommend Ms. Yanzi from the Qin and Han Dynasty Hall of the Shaanxi History Museum!
Ms. Yanzi's explanations are professional and solid, and her presentation is vivid and engaging. Our group wasn't a premium small group tour, but the quality of the explanations far exceeded my expectations. Compared to several premium small group tours I've attended before, it was just as good, and much more affordable. My daughter is particularly fascinated by Qin Dynasty history and listened attentively throughout the entire tour, especially enjoying Ms. Yanzi's explanations. Following Ms. Yanzi through the Qin and Han Dynasty Hall, she clearly explained the stories behind the Qin and Han artifacts, making the whole experience incredibly enjoyable and well worth it!

Knowing that tickets to the Shaanxi History Museum are hard to get, I tried signing up for a guided tour. I was surprised by how reliable the service was from a large platform. The guide, Zhang Xiaojing, sent me the important information and meeting point the day before. He was also there early the next day to wait for everyone. Thanks to Xiaojing, the explanations were excellent, covering the most famous treasures and unique exhibits in Halls 1, 2, and 4 very clearly.

The outdoor green gardens are worth a leisurely stroll. They offer shade and are a great place for family outings. "Xi'an Museum" usually refers to the Xi'an Museum itself. It's not a single exhibition hall, but a complex comprising a museum, the ruins of the Tang Dynasty Jianfu Temple, and the Small Wild Goose Pagoda, a World Heritage Site. This integrated layout of "museum, pagoda, temple, and garden" is relatively rare in China. Those who enjoy the outdoors are definitely recommended to take a walk around and explore.

Fucha Town is a new model of characteristic agriculture and tourism in Guanzhong. It focuses on Fucha production and food, which further enriches the characteristics of folk culture. The commercial development atmosphere in the town seems to be stronger. You need to be patient enough to wait and look for it!

Take a stroll through the Tang Dynasty Never-Sleeping City on a pleasant autumn evening. The evening breeze is cool, the lights are dazzling, and the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty is palpable. Street performances are everywhere, and tourists come and go, creating a lively scene. No need to plan a route; just wander around and explore as you please. Immersed in this world of lights, feeling the warmth of everyday life and ancient charm, this is what small satisfactions in ordinary days are all about. Chang'an's autumn nights are as bright as ever.

Stepping into the Xi'an World Expo Park, lush greenery, crystal-clear lakes, and a gentle breeze create a delightful atmosphere. The iconic pavilions, with their unique designs, blend harmoniously with the natural scenery. Strolling along the paths, flowers and greenery abound, and the shimmering lake in the distance offers a tranquil and comfortable escape. Away from the hustle and bustle, one can fully enjoy the vitality of nature, relax, and find true peace and contentment in this tranquil haven.

Add this to your itinerary if you're visting Xi'an! I have been to the quarter 3 times. Walk along the main path of the quarter BUT make sure you also walk down the narrow alleyways! There are LOTS of shops and food stalls you don't want to miss. Open 24/7 too so make sure you visit!

The village under the horizon - Baishe Dikanyuan, is located in Baishe Village, Xinxing Town, Sanyuan County, Shaanxi Province. The so-called Dikanyuan is a square pit about ten to fifteen meters deep dug underground, with cave dwellings dug around it for living, forming an underground courtyard. This is an ancient residential building in the northern countryside with a history of more than a thousand years. It can be called a living fossil of ancient Chinese dwellings.

The tour guide Wang Yuchen explained the Beilin Museum in detail. He told us the origins of some of the stone tablets and showed us the treasures of the museum. If there are any stone tablets you want to see, you can tell him in advance. The weather is 40 degrees, and the work is very serious and hard. Everyone asks him to explain. He is the tour guide with the most knowledge reserves I have seen in recent days.
