I thought this little-known grotto was the first royal grotto west of Chang'an.

I went twice. This is the place where I have to punch in Xi'an. I once in winter and once in summer. I still recommend going in winter. The summer is too hot and crowded. It is not suitable for summer. It is estimated that I will not go in this life.

Song of Everlasting Sorrow

The stage design is very advanced, the lighting effects are also very beautiful, the actors perform very hard, and the whole scene design also has a certain story logic, but the expression is a bit simple. Overall, it is still good, but the ticket price is a bit expensive, suitable for family fun

Hua Qing Palace

liujiahao～

Huaqing Palace: The blood-colored romance in the fold of power is still warm in the Huaqing pool in the northern foot of the mountain, but it can no longer evaporate the clouds of the Kaiyuan Tianbao years. This hot spring palace, broken by the iron foot of 3,000 forbidden troops, solidifies the most gorgeous blood-color romance in Chinese history. When the love legend of Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei faded the romantic filter of literati ink, Huaqing Palace exposed not only the remnants of the white jade carving column, but also the deadly temptation of an empire in the folds of power. 1. The power mirror of the hot spring palace mirrors the 40-odd records left by Tang Xuanzong in the Huaqing Palace, which constitutes the special coordinates of the political geography of the Shengtang. More than 100 temples such as Feishong Temple, Kowloon Temple and Pearl Temple built on the mountain, interpret the space rhetoric of power in a delicate architectural language. The star soup pool for the emperor to bathe, using the "dome through the sky" design, will be the hot spring and the starry sky vastly weave into a metaphor of the power of the heavens. When Xuanzong stretches his body in the lotus soup, the water mist of the hot spring transpiration is like the figurative form of power radiation. The illusion of the Lushan Palace into the energy core of the entire empire. 2. The political metaphor of the Yuyi Yuyi Palace witnessed not only the fragrant scene of the "Spring and Cold Bath of Huaqing Pool", but also the peak of the political aesthetics of the Shengtang Dynasty. Yang Yuhuan's "Yuyi Song" arranged in the Huaqing Palace, Reconstructed the order of power in artistic form: a huge lineup of 400 dancers, through a sophisticated formation transformation, reproduced the pyramid structure of the imperial administrative system at the visual level. When the sleeves flip into a trajectory of power flow, and the drums perform the rhythm of the bureaucracy, this hot spring palace has become a large theater of political power. Third, the history of horse blood marks dialectical 755 Anlushan rebel iron riding crushed the glazed tiles of Huaqing Palace, but also uncovered the cruel truth behind the romantic narrative. Archaeologically found in the Tang Dynasty Liyuan site, those studded with the sapphire fragments, and the fragmented armor unearthed on Ma Qipo formed a strange dialogue. When Bai Juyi lamented in "The Song of Long Hate" that "the king could not hide his face and save his face", history had already completed the deconstruction of the double myth of power and love in the shadow of the sword and sword of the Pear Garden's dismayed flight and the mutiny of the forbidden army. Standing in the contemporary looking back at the ruins of Huaqing Palace, The "spa water slide" that the literati repeatedly groaned is infiltrated by the complex body fluids of the power mechanism. When archaeologists found the "dragon scale bricks" made in the Xuanzong period on the ground floor of the Lotus Soup site, each piece of clay wrapped in gold is telling the story of the exquisite domestication of power to matter. The ruins of this palace not only carry the tragedy of individual destiny, but also show that any attempt to embed private emotions into the state machine will eventually be turned into a powder in the gears of history. The hot springs of Huaqing Palace are not cold yet, but they are flowing. It has long been a civilized meditation beyond the romantic imagination.

Xi'an City Wall

liujiahao～

On the city wall: the time-space dialectics of a city Standing on the Xi'an city wall and looking down, the arrow tower of Yongning Gate and the glass curtain wall of South Street complement each other, and the waves of the moat reflect the neon lights. This military defense project, which was built in the third year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1370), still stands tall after more than 650 years of wind and rain, but it presents unprecedented time-space tension in the urban landscape of the 21st century. The city wall is no longer a military relic of the cold weapon era, but has become a living code book that decodes the genes of Chinese civilization. 1. Philosophical writing of civil engineering The builders of the Ming city wall used rammed earth and blue bricks to interpret the wisdom of building harmony between man and nature. The wall section presents a trapezoidal structure, with a golden ratio of 18 meters at the bottom and 15 meters at the top, which conforms to the principles of statics and coincides with the layout of the nine-square grid. The glutinous rice mortar between the bricks condenses the ancient craftsmen's profound understanding of the material properties: the branched starch in the glutinous rice reacts chemically with lime to form an adhesive with strength comparable to modern concrete. The 98 enemy towers are distributed according to the hexagrams of the Book of Changes, and the spacing of the horse faces protruding from the city wall is strictly calculated according to the range of the crossbow arrows. This construction logic that combines practical rationality with metaphysical thinking still amazes architects today. 2. Living witness of historical folds Layered time codes are engraved between the bricks and stones of the city wall. The brick carvings of the four sacred beasts "Heaven, Earth, Sun and Moon" embedded when the Yongning Gate was rebuilt during the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty coexist with the bullet hole scars left over from the Republic of China period in the same section of the wall. The ruins of the Tang Hanguang Gate unearthed under the base of the northeast corner tower suddenly extended the depth of history by three hundred years. When tourists' fingers brush over the severely weathered surface of the city bricks, the touch gradually changes from the roughness of the early Ming Dynasty to the delicacy of the late Qing Dynasty. This touchable time layering tells the technical evolution of the dynasty change more intuitively than any history book. 3. Modern transformation of cultural containers The sound waves of the electronic music festival on the moat and the Qinqiang performance in the city wall form a wonderful resonance. The movement trajectory of the participants in the city wall marathon outlines a three-dimensional cultural map in the Beidou satellite positioning system. Digital restoration technology allows the collapsed Kuixing Tower to be reborn in augmented reality devices. 5G base stations and ancient beacon towers jointly weave an information transmission network. This mix of ancient and modern is not a simple collage of time and space, but a re-expression of civilization genes in technological media. When the drone formation formed the word "Chang'an" above the city wall, the ancient city wall is becoming a super server for cultural innovation. The sunset projects the silhouette of the city wall on the glass curtain wall of the skyscraper, and the texture of the blue bricks and the lines of the steel structure form a dialogue across time and space. The contemporary significance of the Xi'an City Wall lies not in its symbolic value as a tourist landmark, but in its demonstration of the dialectics of civilization inheritance: the real cultural protection is not to seal the heritage in the museum, but to allow the historical genes to constantly mutate and reorganize in the contemporary context. This giant ring with a circumference of 13.74 kilometers is not only a container for history, but also a passage to the future. When the footsteps of morning joggers awaken the thousand-year-old moss between the cracks of the wall tiles, what we see is not only the solidified time, but also the flowing civilization.

Famensi Museum

打锅十八牛

# Famen Temple Museum: A Thousand-Year-Old Tang Dynasty Magnificence at a Glance The Famen Temple Museum, located in Fufeng, Baoji, is a cultural treasure house that carries the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Entering the exhibition hall, the treasures of the underground palace thousands of years ago are shockingly presented - the gilded silverware is shining, the glaze color of the secret color porcelain is amazing, and the round flower pattern on the silk cultural relics is still as delicate as before. Each artifact tells the peak achievement of Tang Dynasty craftsmanship. With the theme of "Reappearance of the Underground Palace", the museum tells the historical context behind the cultural relics through the combination of light and shadow interaction and physical exhibition. The treasure of the town hall, the Buddha's finger relic, shows the piety of the royal family in worshipping Buddha with its exquisite design of nesting layers; Tang Dynasty tea sets, glassware and other exotic treasures reflect the prosperous scene of the Silk Road. What's more rare is that there is an immersive digital exhibition hall in the museum, which uses animation to restore the legendary story of the opening of the Tang Dynasty underground palace, and uses interactive screens to explain the details of the cultural relics, so that history can "live" in front of you. Walking in the garden area, the imitation Tang Dynasty buildings and cultural relics under the shade of green pines complement each other, and the cultural experience is full. If you want to touch the gilded years of the prosperous Tang Dynasty and feel the profound charm of Buddhist art, the Famen Temple Museum is undoubtedly a cultural feast that travels through time and space and is worth reading again and again.
