Your first destination is Daming Palace National Heritage Park. Once was the largest and most grandiose palace complex, Daming Palace was a national symbol in the Tang Dynasty. Originally built in 634 AD, the 8th year of Emperor Taizong of Tang, the whole palace was totally damaged at the end of the Tang Dynasty; with the fall of the empire, legendary Daming Palace had disappeared in the history. According to historical records, the palace occupied an area of about 3.2 square kilometres, which is the 4.5 times of the Forbidden City in Beijing. It is recognized as the representative of Chinese palaces and garden architectures and praised as the Eastern Sanctuary on the Silk Road. The rebuilt Daming Palace was launched in October 2007, and it is a key project of relic protection in the Eleventh Five-Year Plan. It has won recognition from UNESCO, the World Relics Protection Center, and State Cultural Relics Bureau. The Palace includes six highlights - the relic structure composed of a palace wall, gate and centre shaft, ancient oriental building, micro architectural complex, archeological, scientific, entertainment, tourism relic center, relic introduction system and night scene of Daming Palace.
Your exciting Xi'an tour begins with a visit to the Tang West Market Museum, located next to the original site of the ancient West Market in Chang’an (modern-day Xi’an). The museum is built directly above the remnants of the Tang Dynasty market and serves as a fascinating testament to the cultural and commercial vibrancy of one of China’s greatest dynasties. The exhibition is titled “Starting Point of the Silk Road – Merchant Spirits of Flourishing Age,” and it offers a deep dive into the bustling trade and cultural exchange that took place here during the Tang Dynasty (618-907). This museum is the first privately-run, on-site archaeological museum in China, and it offers a unique opportunity to explore the wealth of historical relics excavated from the site. Your expert guide will lead you through an expansive exhibition space of 8,000 square meters, highlighting the flourishing international trade during the Tang Dynasty. You will marvel at invaluable artifacts such as bronze wares, silk products, and ancient coins, all of which demonstrate the significance of the Silk Road and the rich cultural exchanges between China and the world. Your guide will provide insightful commentary, explaining the evolution of the Silk Road and the key role of Xi'an in this global trading network.
After the museum, your guide will take you to Xi’an’s famous Muslim Quarter, one of the city's most vibrant and culturally rich areas. Located behind the Bell Tower and Drum Tower, the Muslim Quarter is a collection of streets such as North Guangji Street, Beiyuanmen Street, and Xiyangshi Street. These streets have been home to the Hui Muslim community for centuries and are a living testament to the city’s diverse cultural heritage. Here, you’ll stroll through narrow alleyways lined with bustling food stalls offering an array of local delicacies. From savory lamb skewers and hand-pulled noodles to the famed yangrou paomo (a hearty mutton soup with bread), your guide will help you navigate the food scene, providing recommendations and historical context for each dish. As early as the Han and Tang dynasties, traders and envoys from the Arab world arrived in Chang'an via the Silk Road, and their descendants continue to live in the area, maintaining a rich Islamic cultural heritage. Your guide will share fascinating insights about the history and traditions of the Hui people, making this stop a truly immersive experience.
Next, your guide will escort you to the Shaanxi Grand Opera House, where you will be treated to a spectacular Tang Dynasty Music and Dance Show. This dazzling performance brings to life the music, dance, and grandeur of the Tang Dynasty, the most prosperous and glorious period in Chinese history. The Tang Dynasty was not only a time of political stability but also a period of cultural flourishing, and this show beautifully captures the essence of that era. As you watch the colorful costumes and intricate choreography, your guide will provide historical background, explaining the significance of the music and dance in ancient Chinese court life. The performance offers an insight into the peaceful and luxurious lifestyle of the Tang emperors, and it will feel as though you’ve been transported back in time to a grand imperial palace. This show is a must-see for anyone interested in experiencing the cultural splendor of ancient China.
After the show finished, drive you back to your hotel in Xi'an or Xi'an train station and your tour ends.
