Yongxingfang, the former residence of Wei Zhi, a famous admonition official in Tang Dynasty, is an antique building complex with "Fang, Si" and archway as its main architectural forms.
Yongxingfang not only shows the historical and cultural life of ancient Chang 'an, but also brings together various delicacies from Guanzhong, southern Shaanxi and northern Shaanxi.
Before the Lunar New Year, I came to Yongxingfang, where I not only tasted all kinds of delicious food with a long history in Xi 'an, but also deeply felt the strong flavor of the year.
The picture above shows the main entrance of Yongxing Square at night. Yongxing Square is full of red lanterns and full of festive atmosphere.
In every store, all the new year's goods are prepared early. Tiger hat and tiger skin clothes are very chronological and have the charm of the Tang Dynasty.
The sky is a little dark, and every brick and tile is also infected with the quaint and nostalgic historical atmosphere.
The shops on both sides of the street are decorated with some special ornaments and pendants of Xi 'an, which have the style of ancient Chang 'an.
A string of red lanterns hung above the street, flanked by delicious food, attracted many tourists to stop and taste.
During this period, I also watched the intangible cultural performances of Yongxingfang Intangible Cultural Heritage Theatre, which are very representative in history.
Walking into Yongxingfang Intangible Heritage Theater, the intuitive feeling is the elegance of ancient rhyme. The participants of both sides are mostly middle-aged and elderly people, and the audience is mostly middle-aged and elderly people, with few young people.
Intangible cultural heritage has a long history, which contains the spirit of the ancients and is the crystallization of their wisdom and labor. I think more people should watch it, fully learn and understand it, and let the inheritors of the older generation see hope. There are successors to the non-legacy culture!
The picture above shows the music "Daughter's Love" played by Tao Xun, a non-genetic inheritor. Tao Xun was mainly used to trap prey in ancient times, and it is one of the oldest closed instruments in China, with a history of more than 7,000 years.
Tao Xun was quite popular in the slavery society of the Zhou Dynasty, and it was mainly used for court music after Qin and Han Dynasties. Tao Xun's voice is deep, melodious, tactful and continuous.
The above picture shows Heyang marionette performed by a non-genetic inheritor, which attracted applause from the audience. Heyang Muppet is one of the national intangible cultural heritage projects and an ancient opera unique to Heyang, Shaanxi.
According to legend, this kind of puppet show has a long history, which began in the Han Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. So far, it has a history of more than 2,000 years, and it has the reputation of "raising the world with one hand and fiddling with ancient and modern people with both hands".
Whenever night falls, in this "Pavilion in the Building" in the center of Yongxing Square, red lanterns are hung high, which makes people feel like they are in an ancient Chang 'an Inn. This beautiful scenery has also attracted many tourists to stop and take pictures.
The picture above shows an online celebrity food shop, where many tourists line up to taste.
Binxian Imperial Noodles is a famous food in Yongxing Square. It tastes like rolled noodles, but it tastes stronger than rolled noodles.
In the picture above, two masters are making Ciba. When it is hot, it is very energetic and chewy.
Roasted pig's trotters are fresh and tender in appearance, fat but not greasy, and worth tasting.
The picture above shows the process of making beef patties. The chef made the production process public, which not only ensured the safety and quality, but also satisfied people's curiosity about the method of making beef patties.
Yongxingfang, a place with both history and culture, beautiful scenery and delicious food, is a very worthwhile place to come during the Chinese New Year.
Here, there are not only many delicious foods that tempt you to taste, but also you can fully understand different delicious foods and different cultural stories in ancient Chang 'an.
