    First, park your car at the entrance to the attraction. There's a spacious parking lot, which is very convenient. Then, take the shuttle bus up the mountain. After circling for about 30 minutes, you'll reach the summit. There's a small museum with stunning views. Then, you'll start a fascinating walk, weaving and weaving, sometimes up slopes, sometimes into caves. It's quite interesting. After an hour or two of this, you'll reach another parking spot, take the shuttle bus back to the attraction ticket office, and then pick up your car and go home. The entire journey takes at least six hours. I personally think it's worth it. The entrance fee is a bit expensive.

    Qianling is the joint burial tomb of Tang Gaozong Lizhi and the only queen Wu Zetian in Chinese history. It is located in Ganxian County, Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province. It is the only unstolen tomb of the Tang Dynasty in China. It is also a national tourist attraction and a key cultural relics protection unit in the country. ‌ Because it is located in Ganxian County, and Liangshan symbolizes "Gan" (representing heaven) in Zhouyi Bagua, which fits the supreme status of the emperor's tomb, so it is called "Qianling". ‌‌ As the only two-dying emperors (Tang Gaozong and Wu Zetian) in Chinese history, it has set a precedent for the joint burial of the emperor's tomb. It is also rare in the world's mausoleum. ‌‌ 128 large-scale stone inscriptions in the cemetery, including no-word monument, Shushengji monument, 61 statues of Chenchen, etc., are known as the "Shengtang Stone Carving Art Open-air Museum". No-word monument is7.53 meters high, and eight dragons are carved, symbolizing the controversy over Wu Zetian's work. ‌‌

    It is indeed a scenic spot with magnificent and unique natural scenery. The disadvantage is that the tour route is not very clear. Follow the sightseeing station and get off, and finally find that some attractions have not gone, leaving a pity. In addition, the cost of sightseeing cars and ropeways is too expensive. If the weather is bad, it will feel worthless.

    We enjoyed seeing the animals especially all the pandas, including Qizai at the park. We would recommend to take the tram ride to the top and view all the animals coming down towards the exit. That will be most leisurely a visit and allow you to have more time to hang at each enclosure.

    When I went to Xi'an, I made an appointment for the Shaanxi History Museum. I didn't make an appointment, so I had to make an appointment for the Qin and Han Museum. Located in Qin and Han New Town, Xixian New District, it is a special museum that focuses on displaying cultural relics and history and culture during the Qin and Han periods. The exhibition hall is displayed with the concept of "big history + small theme", with "the same Qin and Han civilization theme exhibition in the world" and special exhibitions such as Qin and Han architecture, music, life, and more than 1,000 precious cultural relics and digital technology, vividly presenting the brilliant achievements of Qin and Han unified China. Its architecture integrates the style of Qin Xianyang Palace, and the magnificent atmosphere is intersected with the surrounding ruins, which has become an important window for interpreting Chinese civilization. I didn't expect that there are many collections and the experience is great. It is a little farther from the city. You can reach it by subway line 2 to line 14.

    Fuxi Temple is a beautiful and serene place to learn about Chinese mythology and history. Dedicated to Fuxi, the legendary ancestor of humanity, the temple complex has traditional Ming–Qing architecture, ancient cypress trees, and informative displays. It’s peaceful, less crowded than many tourist spots, and gives a real sense of Tianshui’s cultural heritage. A must-visit if you’re interested in history and Chinese legends.

The temple has attractions such as the Yellow Emperor's hand planting cypress, the temple of the first ancestors of the humanities, and the Yellow Emperor's footprint stone.

    Such a great site! Almost no one there. Note that this ticket is a QR code, not tied to your passport. Don't stop at the entrance booth, just go straight to the underground museum section and they'll scan the QR code.
