Xi' an is a very popular tourist destination, where there are not only various splendid historical sites, but also world-famous food. Xi' an has always been one of the core areas of Chinese civilization, bearing the connotation and essence of Chinese civilization for thousands of years, and it is a good travel destination. Here, I will share with you detailed strategies.

Xi' an Accommodation

It is the first time to arrive in Xi' an, and the accommodation is recommended to be near the bell tower. Even at 11 o'clock at night, the crowds around are not diminished, and the city lights are more brilliant in the darkness. Put down your luggage in a nearby hotel and visit the night view of the bell tower.

If you have enough time, you can walk west from North Street into Xihuamen, and walk for about 11 minutes to taste delicious food in Laohuifang. On the right side of the entrance of Laohuifang, there is an "Laogaojia" barbecue shop, which enters the main entrance through a narrow alley. There is no gorgeous facade, and you will miss the delicious alley if you don't pay attention.

the first day: the ancient rhyme of calligraphy and ink, and the fragrance of returning to the square

1. Calligraphy rubbings and prints —— the Forest of Steles Museum

The Forest of Steles Museum is not far from the city wall, and it contains the calligraphy art of inscriptions, epitaphs and stone carvings. The whole scenic spot is divided into three parts: the Forest of Steles, the art of stone carvings and other cultural relics exhibitions. If you are a calligraphy lover, it is strongly recommended to set aside half a day to visit the 12 exhibition rooms carefully.

Calligraphy Art

There are more than 1,111 pieces of steles and epitaphs from the Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. You can enjoy the famous calligraphy works of all ages here. Huang Tingjian's calligraphy is magnificent, Yan Zhenqing's writing is vigorous, and Mi Fei's calligraphy is vigorous and elegant, and the unique calligraphy art is intriguing.

On-site rubbings

The value of an object, such as a stone tablet and a tile, is self-evident, and the artistic value of the stone carving in the forest of steles also determines that not anyone can own it. For the dissemination of cultural information it carries, the most convenient thing is to read the rubbings quietly compared with the ordinary photos left by the camera. This ancient technique, which perfectly displays the details of cultural relics, is definitely a two-dimensional space.

Transportation: You can take bus No.21 (21 minutes) and No.222 (25 minutes) from Xi 'an Bell Tower to Beilin Museum. Tickets: 75 yuan in peak season (March 1 ~ October 31); Off-season (February 1 ~ the end of February of the following year) Suggestions for visiting 51 yuan: 3 hours.

Walking and cycling

Xi 'an city wall is the most intact ancient city wall in China, and you can walk around it, from dusk to the lights on the rostrum. You can also choose the way of riding. You can rent bicycles for one or two people on the city wall. You can feel the evening breeze blowing on your face and measure the length of history with modern rails.

Music of the city wall

When you follow the city wall, you will always hear a burst of songs and cheers inadvertently. When you go forward, you will see groups of young people singing with guitars under the 611-year-old city gate cave. One second it was the history of the ancient capital, and the next second it passed through the city became fashion and rock. A group of fresh individuals under the ancient city wall always gave people a sense of historical crossing. Inadvertently, it sang with those floating music, and the freedom and joy in the song were combined with the restless vitality of young people. This is the wonderful cohesion brought by the same root culture for thousands of years.

Huimin Street Cuisine

Spill a bowl of oil on biangbiang noodles, and you need long chopsticks to get the fragrance; Laomijia's mutton buns need to be smashed into the size of soybeans by hand, and then the store is asked to pour them with fresh soup and add a dish of sugar and garlic. This is the standard for Laoshan people. Pouring soup packets, gently stirring them with chopsticks, first biting a small mouth, sucking off the soup, and then dipping them in special sauce, is definitely the enjoyment of taste buds.
