Xi'an 2 day tour

Some memory is never Mabu Diao, especially good memories, do not bother to remember, during these years, still fresh in our memory, as if that is the same as happened yesterday. Do not know if you do not have the experience, anyway I do. Last year's National Day holiday, I fled to Xi'an ... ... use the term "escape" to describe, because that time I was really depressed, people sitting in the office every day, while the heart is empty, the brain seems to stop turn, I must leave for some time, otherwise I would go crazy ... ...

Certain that people will ask, why would choose Xi'an? It so happened that one day from work to go on the road, I heard two girls who look like students that go to Xi'an travel, want to see Emperor Qin Shi Huang, Oh, the kids stronger than adults on the line where they are naive and dare to dare to think say, live in spontaneity. After listening to their words, I suddenly have the urge to want to go to Xi'an, and put into action, about a "magnet" to accompany me with the go, for my escort. Friends, that is, when you need him duty-bound to help you, it is the only true friend, but it is mutual, not any one party blindly the price.

Prior to each excursion will be done, is to the Internet to do their homework! I am more concerned about such as transportation, local customs, attractions how to series, the local food snacks and so on, so as not to play in the process of trouble, but also a waste of time. After he had to praise an investigation, the network is really a good thing Yeah, what can be found. The trip to Xian Travels http://www.nalila.com/pages/192 this helped me be busy, I have basically written by the netizens to do so. Mind about schemes, coupled with the local hospitality have friends, you can release the mood to play!

Xi'an tour, Day 1: Muslims Street - Bell & Drum Tower - Big Wild Goose Pagoda

26 train departure, after 22 hours of journey, we are on the 27th at about 10 o'clock arrived at Xi'an railway station, watching the rain and the sky, in addition to wearing thin because it sent shivers more of a curiosity about this city excited.

Out of station, we take a taxi to a friend's house is located in the western suburbs of Xi'an, Xi'an taxi driver is very warm, along the way has been giving us about a building in Xi'an, weather, tourist attractions, etc., we also found that Xi'an is worthy of a "city block "in name, which also gave us after the trip to Xi'an, has brought a certain extent.

To a friend's house, the owner was not at home, arranged for his sister to us, and she was just bigger than us, and we all call her sister. Put away luggage, we take a break in, accompanied by her sister, to the clock tower in the vicinity of the same Shengxiang ate mutton Paomo. Bun should first break with both hands broken, and then to the waiter, and so is the waiter came, steaming mutton Paomo, and we can also Isaac some parsley, we are all for the first time to eat, I feel very fresh, taste good, but Tom is still very greasy, I heard this in order to adapt to foreign visitors, has not authentic, and so a bowl of Paomo 20.

Eaten foam bun, and we walk to the nearby Moslem Street stroll, where the snacks are cheap, and tastes very good.

Rush a stroll, we went to the travel agent, just a few days idle, ready to travel again in the vicinity, to discuss a long time, the original Qiao Jia Da Yuan was overthrown, we are entangled between Dunhuang and Qinghai, we still verbally agreed to go to Dunhuang (at the time was a little excited and worried about).

Dunhuang, Qinghai, or whether to think of our clothes are too thin, and went downtown to buy winter clothes, I bought a piece down jacket (slightly exaggerated, but more accounts, and look, though not so popular, when you finally play at Huashan the role of). Is also a shop and bought three thick Tights 3.

After we bought clothes and decided to eat dinner Hui Man Street, this time has been dark, and Clock Tower and Drum Tower has been switched on, people do not actually think of Tang's Chang'an city whether it is such a scene?

Hui Street, we found a store solution casual dinner, it is very interesting, there is no recipe, there is no one to greet you to ask you something, their small two baked or do a good job carrying his pocket to pocket food to go, if you need to do so, from his side of the plate to take. If you specifically to enable small two to give you something to eat, and he basically does not ignore you. Checkout after eating, but also according to your table, plates and stick to count (and a bit like eating sushi), 4 person ate 37 (really cheap).

After dinner, there is still enough, under the leadership of the Xiaojin sister, took the bus target Big Wild Goose Pagoda. We just saw the last day the music fountain performance. Big Wild Goose Pagoda Tang Dynasty around the theme is more like a garden, a pity that the sky late, did not see real, want to Xuan Zang, like photo also failed. After the trip there is no time to play here again, but fortunately after a small He came once, after my travels to upload pictures.

Big Wild Goose Pagoda is the last stop of the day, we still took the bus to go back and see the gang fights with the incident, obviously frightened by her sister, but also decided to cancel the trip to Dunhuang (originally scheduled for a tour guide and our three girls, want to come in case they Accidents also can not protect all of us), to cancel the trip has also produced some twists and turns, this is the second day of our trip happened in a ... ...

8:00 am We are starting from the western suburbs of residence to the station, the amusement ride at the train station 5, according to tour five lines, our first destination was the Huaqing Hot Spring. (6 yuan / person). Unfortunately, that day is also under a relatively large spots of rain, is also a season ticket prices (70 yuan / person), and later also cheated with the staff sat Battery Car (15 yuan / person) (listen to the staff, that covers an area of large, think of rainy days, walk inconvenient). It took another 30 yuan invited a local guide.

It ranges south to the first peak Ling Li, Shanxi Township, north to the old county of North Cross, east stone urn Valley, West Peony the west side of the railway ditch nursing home.

Unfortunately, Tang Hua An-Qing with the gradual destruction, since the Song Dynasty to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the original buildings have disappeared, leaving only the eyes of some ruins.

Previously "Everlasting Regret" only know about the story, visit after listening to tour guide explained, they learned that "concubines 3000 people, 3000 pet in a" Cultural Revolution.

Begonia pool, also known as the Royal pool


(Malus pool (Royal Pool))

Concubine Yang of the Tang Xuanzong given a precious gift. Bath is designed to a slowly blooming Begonia, then six petals of a flower blooming beauties in a gently pro-pool, the pool is a soft fragrance of the hot spring water, which is how elegant, how love of art ideas, and to Since the 60 teenage Xuanzong! No matter, said Begonia pool or that they called the Royal pool, what we can imagine a romantic love story. Thus, Xuanzong intentions of honesty, love of truth, at that time speaking to Burongyia!

This should be a Lotus Tangchi


(Lotus Pond)

If the lotus pool and pool Begonia What's the difference, then it is more than twice as large as the latter than the former. Lotus Pond 10.6 meters from east to west, north-south width 6 meters. In addition we discovered that no, the pond has two water holes, and an a double-lotus base, one more than the Royal pool. The difference is that there is a pond shore is surrounded by double stone foundation, these two holes, two-seat, double, there is an implication of devoted married couple is to be the Xuanzong and Concubine Yang "In the days would like to make pair of lovebirds, on the ground willing to Lian Li-zhi, "oath.

The photo of the kiosk, according to tour guide said to be dry hair units, the purpose is to give a generation Royal empress beauty dry hair after shower.


(Dry hair Pavilion)

This is the "Xi'an Incident" shoot the bullet holes, (within 5 Huaqing Pool Hall)


(5 offices)

The Office of origin of these five can be described as greatly. Power Allied Forces attacked Beijing, the Empress stayed here when he fled the West; in 1934, after repairs, there was again a Kuomintang official visit must not think of a place; in October 1936, Chiang Kai-shek in December to two in Shaanxi, all with spots for "Xing Yuan "they lived in hall 5. Here he planned high-level military meeting, the implementation of "stabbing outside they must first be peace within" policy, thus giving rise Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng strong dissatisfaction, leading to the door at 6 o'clock on the 12th month of the Xi'an Incident that shocked the world.

Huaqing Pool night music and dance "Everlasting Regret" stage of modeling, I heard that great, the fare is also very high, do not look or feel pity points.

To leave the Huaqing Hot Spring, we continue to take the tour 5 (1 yuan / person), the destination is one of our most important attractions Terracotta Warriors ......

We almost reach the terracotta warriors and horses more than 11 o'clock, the rain gradually stopped, and we do not intend to ask the tour guide, is intended to follow the other tour and listen to, but many people have not heard anything, just to watch herself have do not see anything, then decided to found a local guide to explain.

May recall that not very clear, I still remember the picture by pressing write:

Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum is located 30 kilometers away from Xi'an, Lintong County, east of the foot of Lishan Mountain. According to historical records: First Emperor Ying Zheng ascended the throne from the 13-year-old cemetery, when construction began, presided over by Li Si Ji-phase planning and design, generals, Zhang Han supervision, construction time of up to 38 years, the vast project, the daring, the ambitious, the highest feudal rulers of dynasties practice was a precedent luxury. At that time, Qin total population of 20 million, while the build-ling 72 million and more labor. Xiu-ling home soil, taken from this cemetery south of the 2,000 meters three quarries Liu village to the county between the Department, there are 5 ~ 25 m high multi-level loess cliffs. Xiu cemetery used by a large number of stone from the Wei River in Hebei Zhong Shan, Jun Asan, thanks to human transport to the temporary hit, engineering very difficult. One can imagine the amount of large projects, Zhong Shan, Jun Asan under the corpse into pieces, side shows the cruelty of the whole project.

The northern foot of Lishan Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum look northward, east Huayin, west Xianyang, with a total area of 56.25 square kilometers, is considered the convergence of yin and yang feng shui treasure land. The Hills south of Lantian jade since ancient times, the north bank of the Wei River Tongguan produce gold, so the ancients said: 'head mountain, pedal-chuan, for generations to do high-ranking officials; grasp gold, on the one hand jade, Jinyuliangyuan, corruption has its First Emperor burial of the name.

Emperor Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang Terracotta Army Pit Pei Zangkeng is located in the east cemetery l 500 meters. The past, here is a cemetery, digging graves in the local farmers had found something like human beings. In March 1974, in the hills east of the West Yangcun villagers when drought wells, in the east of the mausoleum the next three years and five refuse village between the villages and found that large-scale of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum soldiers toilet pits, excavations by archaeologists , was buried in the ground opened more than 2,000 years ago, sir treasures.

Terracotta Pei Zangkeng ride west to east, sankeng was isosceles triangle arrangement. First discovered the figurines on the 1st hole, rectangular, 230 meters from east to west, 62 meters from north to south, about 5 meters deep, with a total area of 14.26 thousand square meters, surrounded by slopes Yue Mun Road, right and left sides also have a terracotta pit, now known as on the 2nd hole and on the 3rd hole.

Terracotta Warriors Peizang Keng, is the world's largest underground military museum. Poke hole rational layout, structure, peculiar, in the Bottom of about 5 meters deep, at intervals of 3 meters from east to put up a load-bearing walls, terracotta warriors and horses arranged in the wall gap between the over-hole.

This is documented in 1980, discovered 18 meters in the west hills of the two by bronze chariot. One traveling for horses horse truck, traveling on the 2nd safety car for the mule. Ren found, the two ride horses seriously damaged, especially for the soul of the emperor riding safety car had been broken into more than 1,500 pieces. The archaeologists restored, and now they look as good as Ren. 2 car car, horses, people are modeled on real cars, real horses, real people, made of half a scaled-down, only security vehicles will have 1720 gold and silver ornaments, weighing 7 kg. Steel chariot gives not only the enjoyment of art, more importantly, yes. They have important historical value and scientific value. Tong Juma is that we understand, study Qin car system, metallurgy casting technology, technological level, and so rare in real materials section. (I followed behind a tour guide to hear the explanation: the two cars immediately take the bronze, many technological level, it is now impossible, as this type of vehicle covered, as well as the bronze horse mane)

You'll never find two terracotta warriors and horses in the physical appearance, the same body figurines. One by one they waste gas extraordinary, the most heavily are more than 300 kilograms, light also has more than 100 kilograms, height from 1.7 meters to 1.9 meters. Tour guide said that we can see from the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, Shaanxi people's faces, you can also find the Mongol's face, as well as people's faces south. At that time the men to leave should be in the United States, so if a crime, then there is a criminal shaved his beard. Qin Shi Huang also said that far-fetched and therefore I Terracotta Warriors and Horses are mostly tall and from 1.7 meters to 1.9 meters. In addition, the guide is a local rural people, she said she had not done a tour guide and the terracotta warriors and horses together for many years been a shadow, not very lucky in the local view.

Visit our order is so by pressing 4,3,2,1 visit Pit No.:

There are no pits on the 4th hole figurines, only the backfill soil.

On the 3rd hole on the 1st hole at the western end of 25 meters, covering an area of about 520 square meters, showing concave shape. There is a ride in front of tanks, there are warrior figure 68. From 3 to see the layout of the pit, it seems as the General Command, commander of the left, right, in the armed forces, but have not yet built only.

Qin terracotta pit unearthed weapons era name to see engraved in mind, Terra Cotta Warriors from the burial pit is built around the First Emperor unified China. Emperor with his "scenes must clouds", "rough riding group to be" the ability to eliminate the six countries, the Organization world. The Qin Dynasty terracotta warriors and horses reflect the best players together, all-powerful momentum. Qin Shi Huang's death, Hu Hai Qin Dynasty to the throne, to continue overhauling A Fanggong and relaxation Road, taxation is more onerous than the previous lord, which led to peasant uprisings. In this form, on the 3rd hole halfway down the end, put on the 4th hole less than terracotta warriors and horses, they rushed to fill dead. Excavation were found to have burnt marks, entry may be customs Chu Xiang Yu set fire to A Fanggong are.


(No. 2 pit)
One pit is located on the 2nd hole on the 3rd hole of the northeast and the east side, was carpenter's square-shaped square, 96 meters from east to west, north-south width of 84 meters, with a total area of approximately 6,000 square meters. The pit building and on the 1st hole the same, but ended their more complex, more complete arms is a three pits of the most spectacular military array. On the 2nd pit built 1.7 million square meters of exhibition hall, is currently China's largest, most feature-complete modernization of the site showroom. YUAN Zhong Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, a military officer explained: "As a result, for the better protection of cultural relics, and secondly, because the whole military array all cleared the ground, requiring a minimum 5 ￣ 7 years in martial arts. This has the advantage of tourists both visits to the local style on the 2nd hole, there could be witnessed on the 2nd pit excavation work. "

According to preliminary projections, on the 2nd hole with more than 1,300 pieces of pottery horses figurines, tanks more than 80 vehicles, tens of thousands of pieces of bronze weapons, of which General figurines, pommel horse figurines, figurines for the first time found shot kneeling position. On the 2nd pit east and west ends of each of four slopes Yue Mun Road, the north there are two slopes Yue Mun Road, figurines sit pit west of the East, the main entrance in the east. Pit layout is divided into four units.

The first unit, located at the eastern end of figurines pit, surrounded by the promenade are vertical Crossbowmen figurines 60, array Heart by eight road East 160 Crossbowmen figurines squatting kneeling form. Crossbowmen Zhang array to array presentation and enactment of ups and downs took turns kneeling firing, to slow Zhang Mi crossbow at risk.

The second unit, located in the right side of the pit figurines from the composition matrix 64 by car (cars of wood, leaving only traces). By 8 per row, a total of eight. Front of the vehicle there is a real horse riding horses the size of four. After the word per vehicle ordered soldiers figurines 3, for the Royal pull horse bridle, and the other two cars were left and the right car stand, hand-held long-handled weapons.

The third unit, located in the middle, from 19 tanks, 264 infantry and eight knights figurines figurines composed of a rectangular array, is divided into three. Knight in front of each horse figurines one in one hand and pull loose the beast in one hand and bow to pull. Each car is lowered after three limousines with disabilities, the also has eight ￣ 36 infantry figurines.

The fourth unit, located in the left side of the military array, 108 knights and 180 pottery figurines pommel horse figurines arranged in 11 horizontal teams, composed of a rectangular array cavalry. The first of these 1,3 as the chariot 6. Each horse before the knight figurines 1 Hu Fu Li, Qian Ma right hand, left-handed bow.

This is when the terracotta warriors and horses excavated just photos, you can see the real Terracotta Warriors and Horses is a color, and lifelike, but 78 hours later, the colors all fade, and now there is no technology can make to preserve the color, so many have been buried back suspension of mining.


(Pit No. 1)

At the first pit has been excavated warriors stabbed more than 500 pieces, tanks 6 by, driving horse 24, as well as bronze swords, Wu hooks, spears, arrows, crossbow, copper, bronze halberd and other weapons used in actual combat, and iron . 210 figurines pit east end of the pottery warriors and people high figurines, facial posture, clothing style, hair styles vary, each life-like, form realistic, arranged in three horizontal teams, each column 70, which, among three team leaders dressed in a pin, the rest were Chuanduan brown, legs and tie legging, line Lu-lace-free beam helmet hair, pull bow collapse arrows in hand crossbow, it may be the starting forward troops on standby. Subsequently, a 6000 armor composed of the main body of troops figurines, each about 3 meters Shouzhi spears, Ge, Ji and other long weapons, ride horses horse chariot with 35 intervals in the 11 east-west cross holes, arranged in 38 columns. North and south sides and ends, each with a warrior figure, seems to guard, to prevent the side tail assaulted. The team line-neat, equipment is complete, majestic, magnificent, is a mighty army of Emperor Qin Shi Huang then the art of reproduction, with a strong artistic appeal.

Out of the terracotta warriors and horses, small business on the street what to buy two Lan Tianyu's bracelet, I recall that one is called the Lotus-yu, said that the morning wash your face when placed in basins, the effect can make skin care (and later asked her not how kind of effect do not know that she tried did not test), there seems to be a Moyu, said to have beneficial health effects. Have heard a lot of fake businesses, we will not distinguish the authenticity of, and I ultimately did not buy.

In the other car to come back, we bought some fire stations and large crystal persimmon pomegranate, which are their specialty, persimmon I did not dare to try (gastrointestinal bad), pomegranate is very cheap, sweet and full of water on board all the way come back to eat.

Finally finished, and really feel like a downhill. However, their own most memorable thing happened record permanently saved, or a very meaningful thing. If a person because of my experiences and get help, I would be very happy to help others is an interesting thing. I believe every person's life will have at least one memorable event, remember it, it is your wealth.
