Dayun Temple • Wangmu Palace

M29***62
Cangzhou Dayun Temple was built at the original site of Daxingguo Temple in the Sui Dynasty, and the stone letter, Sheli bottle and Sheli under the original tower were removed. At that time, the craftsman with the highest level of pocket gold and silverware made in China, and the most precious pearl jade stone was selected at that time, condensing the highest wisdom of an era. Platinum carved silver, made into platinum bronze platinum, gold and silver coffin, and filled with glazed bottles of 14 Buddha bones and then matched with stone letters, in 694 AD re-buried into the earth palace, built a tower for worship, which is 180 years earlier than the Shaanxi Fufeng Famen Temple earth palace.

Coming from Dayun Temple, I couldn’t get a taxi. I walked for about half an hour. The traffic in the small county was inconvenient. At the foot of the mountain was the Grottoes of the Wangmu Palace. When I went there, I just met the interpreter to lead the tour group. I listened to it. The Western Wangmu relief, the Western Wangmu face is awkward, maybe with a mask, Going down is the grotto group. After entering, don't go outside the cave. The scale of the stone carving is OK. The image of the stone carving feels more popular. Overall, it is not bad.

The South Grottoes Temple is located on the north bank of the Jinghe River, 7.5 kilometers east of Jingchuan County, Pingliang City, Gansu Province. It was built in the third year of Yongping in the Northern Wei Dynasty (510 AD) and is a national key cultural relic protection unit. The South Grottoes Temple, built under the leadership of Xi Kangsheng, the governor of Jingzhou, in the third year of Yongping in the Northern Wei Dynasty, together with the North Grottoes Temple in Qingyang, is known as the "Twin Pearls of the Longdong Grottoes". There are five existing caves in the South Grotto Temple, all facing south. The No. 1 East Big Cave and the No. 2 West Small Cave are relatively well preserved. Dongda Grotto is the main cave of Nanshi Cave Temple. There are seven Buddha statues and thirteen Bodhisattvas in different shapes and lifelike shapes, all in the style of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The stele of the South Grotto Temple preserved in the cave has the inscription "the third year of Yongping of the Wei Dynasty", which was built one year later than the North Grotto Temple.

Explaining the service is cost-effective and convenient. The narrator may also have task pressure. The assembly line works. It's just that the management of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Scenic Area is relatively extensive and chaotic, and there are many small merchants and hawkers around, which is not in line with its reputation. The venue is well repaired, but there are many people and the hygiene is very bad. 3D Film Documentary is much better than expected

The stage design is very advanced, the lighting effect is also very beautiful, the actor performance is very hard, the whole scene design also has a certain story logic, but the performance is slightly simple, overall it is good, that is, the fare is too expensive, suitable for family fun

Very recommended, the overall feeling is very good. Very good value for money, passing by Xi'an on a business trip, the nephew family invited me. It is a good choice to bring parents, children or friends together. Would recommend friends and family to come.

Xi'an City Wall, the longest city wall in the country, magnificent, from the south gate, under the Jianguo Gate, the whole journey is about an hour, very interesting, the city wall can also rent bicycles, it is also recommended to come to the south gate to watch the sunset in the evening, it is a relatively novel experience.

Mount Hua

It is worth going. It is very suitable for playing with friends ## Huashan: A mountain that refuses to be tamed is not a docile mountain. It refuses to become the kind of tamed scenery written by literati Moke, and refuses to become the same background in the tourist scene. The huge granite mass, at an altitude of2154.9 meters, stands on the Guanzhong Plain in a near arrogant attitude, proclaiming to everyone who looks up to it with steep cliffs and ridges: There is no compromise here. The beauty of Huashan is aggressive. When the morning dawned, the sun split the clouds like a blade, and the shadows were carved in the bare rock surface, and the whole mountain seemed to be a reawakened beast. The "wonderful" that has been repeatedly groaned by literati in all generations is Huashan's rejection of mediocrity, which disdains a mountain that makes people easily climb to the top. The names of thousands of feet, 100 feet of gorge, Laojun ditch, these names themselves carry a certain provocative meaning. In Huashan, the construction of civilization that humans are proud of is so insignificant. Stone steps and chains barely cling to the vertical cliff wall, like some kind of humble request. And the long-air plank road, the boardwalk hanging outside the cliff, It became the most exciting way of dialogue between humans and peaks. People who walk above will suddenly understand that here, not people conquer mountains, but mountains are testing people. The most moving moment of Huashan is perhaps when clouds engulf everything. At that time, the sudden peak pierced the sea of clouds, like an island that refused to sink. The essence of Huashan was hidden in this vision: it always maintained its own unrulyness, and even in the face of the erosion of time, it always existed with the most primitive force. In this overexploited world, Huashan still stubbornly does himself - perhaps the most precious revelation it has given us.

Tang Paradise

Tang Paradise: A Cultural Breakthrough of a Garden On the banks of Qujiang River in Xi'an, the Tang Paradise, covering an area of ​​1,000 mu, is like an exquisite jade cong, solidifying the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in a modern city of reinforced concrete. This replica of the royal garden, which cost 1.3 billion yuan to build, has been accompanied by the criticism of "fake antiques" and the question of "cultural Disney" since its birth. But walking in it, the light and shadow flowing between the flying eaves and brackets are not only commercialized, but also a breakthrough experiment of traditional culture in the contemporary context. 1. The shape of the garden: a contemporary expression of spatial aesthetics Standing in front of Ziyun Tower and looking up, the three-story hip roof reshapes the majestic momentum of Tang Dynasty architecture with modern steel structure, and the vermilion columns cast in concrete perfectly reproduce the prosperous Tang Dynasty style of "red pillars and carved rafters". Architects use modern materials to reconstruct traditional forms and revive historical symbols in mechanical structures. This reconstruction is not a simple copy and paste, but a reinterpretation of tradition through technological innovation. The water system in the garden is as winding as the Qujiang River in the Tang Dynasty, but it hides mysteries. The mist system creates mist on the lake surface, and the LED light strips outline the outline of the building under the night sky. These modern scientific and technological means transform the literati elegance of "Qujiang Liuyin" into a perceptible and immersive experience. Visitors reach out to touch not only the mist, but also the poetry that has traveled through thousands of years. The digital exhibition of the Ladies' Pavilion is particularly meaningful. Holographic projection reproduces the graceful figure of "Ladies with Flowers in Their Hair", and AR technology allows the characters in the murals to walk down the wall. When scientific and technological means transform static cultural relics into dynamic narratives, traditional culture has gained the ability to communicate with digital natives. 2. Cultural Soul: Awakening Ceremony of Collective Memory The "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" performed every day is not an ordinary song and dance show, but a carefully designed cultural ceremony. When the drumbeats of "Qin Wang Pozhen Music" blend with modern symphony, the audience completes the spiritual pilgrimage to the prosperous Tang Dynasty in sound and light. This kind of performance is essentially to transform the cultural memory in the classics into a participatory group experience. The imperial examination experience project in Xingyuan is quite ingenious. Visitors wear long shirts and carry baskets to take the exam, and the electronic screen simulates the success of the exam when the list is announced. This role-playing is not a shallow cosplay, but a situational substitution to awaken the cultural genes in the blood, turning "Spring breeze and proud horse hoofs" from a poem into a touchable collective memory. Tang Poetry Gorge under the night is the most philosophical. The ancient quatrains carved on the cliff are reactivated by light and shadow, and the sound waves when the tourists recite trigger the corresponding visual effects. When "The bright moon shines among the pines" is visualized in sound and light, the poem is no longer the lead type in the textbook, but an interactive cultural scene. 3. Breakthrough: Modern Translation of Traditional Symbols Furong Garden's most successful breakthrough lies in creating a cultural intermediate state. It is not a cultural relic for people to admire in a museum, nor is it a pure entertainment space in a theme park, but a cultural transition zone built with modern language. Here, tourists are both spectators and participants, and traditional culture is both protected and deconstructed. The creation of the water curtain movie "Dreaming of the Tang Dynasty" is highly symbolic. Lasers project the flying murals onto the water curtain, and holographic technology allows historical figures to perform on the same stage with modern dancers. This time-space folding performance method is just like the survival status of traditional culture in the contemporary era.

It is very convenient to buy and use tickets, just scan your ID card. I have visited the Xi'an City Wall many times, and this time should be the longest walking distance. There are some decorations on it that should be the New Year Lantern Festival. It should be very convenient to rent a bicycle, but it was too late to go up, so the rental was stopped.
