    The environment is beautiful, with birds singing and flowers blooming. You can take a walk and have a cup of tea to rest. There are also animals such as peacocks, toucans, and parrots. However, I hope there can be more benches, as the elderly need to sit down every half hour.

    Venue rather small than expected, but immersive experience with the many NPCs makes the visit really worthwhile. Looked high & low in Xi’an for 火晶柿子 from the drama series, but it can only be found here! Highly recommended to try it, indeed delicious. Also recommend 石头拌饭 in the food street. At times may feel somewhat constrained due to the small venue cos not that much space to stroll around & different performances take place on rotation more or less around same spots, but despite so can still easily spend an entire day here if chasing after the various scheduled performances. Will still come here again when next visit Xi’an!

    Parents and children must go to the scenic spot, children will like it very much, the price is also super high, the ticket includes the ticket of the Mammoth District bus. And you can queue up many times to see the Mammoth. The aquarium has a regular performance. The traffic is also very convenient.
