Chinese calligraphy boasts a long development history and basically five basic script forms, namely: seal script, clerical script, regular script, running script and cursive script. Calligraphy is an art dating back to the earliest day of history, and widely practiced throughout China to this day along Silk Road tours. Although it uses Chinese words as its vehicle of expression, one does not have to know Chinese to appreciate its beauty, because in essence, calligraphy is an abstract art. While viewing a Western abstract painting, one does not ask, “What is it?” When viewing Chinese calligraphy, one need not ask, “What is the Chinese word?” Therefore the steles museum is also highly attractive to tourists and arts lovers from outside China, although most of them cannot read Chinese. The most famous includes the Cao Quan Stele, erected in Han clerical script and famous for its elegant, ingenious inscription. The Tang dynasty is commonly seen as the summit of China's feudal society and its calligraphy marked by the widespread and popularity of regular script also came to a peak. The most distinguished Tang stele is "the Preface to the Holy Buddhist Scriptures" in the handwriting of Wang Xizhi, a famous Jin calligrapher who was named the Sage of Chinese Calligraphy. Some poems of calligraphy are also collected here.

“The fundamental concept of my Forest of Stone Steles China guide is how our society, especially after post-modernism and post-colonialism, is beyond any traditional interpretation and study possible within a single culture. The texts are a symbolic examination of our contemporary culture’s influence through intercultural misunderstandings. By reading the retranslation and rewriting texts on the stone steles, we experience the satire, absurdity, and confusion almost to a predicament in a process of shaping a new culture. The texts also promulgate that public fanaticism and blindness can transmute misunderstanding and misinterpretation into an icon in our society.” The Museum is grateful to the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation for a major grant to fund the exhibition, and to the Cornell Council on the Arts and the Cornell East Asia Program for their financial support and collaboration. Special thanks go to Wenda Gu, Wang Jing, and David Raddock for all their efforts to bring this exhibition to the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art.

Say Hello to Xian City Wall Tour

Xian City Wall Tour to China is not only a well preserved ancient Chinese monument but was once also a complex and well-organized system of defense for the city. The City Wall was built by order of Zhu Yuanzhang, the forefather of Ming Dynasty. He was admonished by a hermit named Zhu Sheng to “build high walls, store abundant provisions, and take time in proclaiming yourself emperor.” Zhu Yuangzhang accepted his proposal and gave orders to the local governments to build the city walls when the whole country was unified.

In ancient times, the gates have a strategic role to play since they were the only way to go in and out of the town. And each gate consists of three towers: the gate tower, the narrow tower and the main tower. And tunnels connect the narrow tower and main tower. From the tunnels there are also passages for war horses. And on the four corners of the City Wall stand watch towers, which play a significant role in the war.

The gates of the city wall of Classic China tours were the only way to go into and out of town.

Every day cars, pedestrians and bicycles are going through the gate. Zhuque (Red Sparrow) Gate: Before the Zhuque Gate, the main entrance of the Tang Forbidden City is the famous Zhuque Avenue, the Avenue des Champs Elysees of the ancient Xi'an, where the emperors of Shui and Tang often held various parades and ceremonies here thousands of years ago. The remains of the Gate were rediscovered in 1985 when the city wall of Ming Dynasty was opened. The depict of the gate in the literature works of Shui and Tang were testified by the unearthed site. As described, the gate was truly imposing and built by huge block of marbles and engraved with plenty of imaginative and pretty patterns. The new gate we see today was actually built in 1986 precisely according to its original look.

Travelling to Suzhou Surging Wave Pavilion

The Surging Waves Pavilion. First built in 1044 AD, the garden is the oldest of the existing Suzhou classical gardens of China tourism. The outer part of the double corridor is over the canal's edge,while the other open to the central hill. Latticed windows on the wall supply the spatial link between the scenery inside and outside the garden, which is the typical device of "borrowed views".

The Canglang Pavilion was built in 1044 CE by the Song Dynasty poet Su Shunqing (1008–1048), on the site of a pre-existing imperial flower garden c 960 CE. It is the oldest of the UNESCO gardens in Suzhou Travel, keeping its original Song Dynasty layout. The name is derived from a verse in the poem Fishermen by Qu Yuan (ca. 340 BCE-278 BCE), a poet from the southern state of Chu during the Warring States period, in his book Songs of the South, "If the Canglang River is dirty I wash my muddy feet; If the Canglang River is clean I wash my ribbon". This verse alludes to an honest official who removes himself from politics rather than act in a corrupt manner. Su Shunqing choose this to express his feelings after his removal from office.

Unlike other gardens in Suzhou, there is a strong emphasis on the contrast between constructed natural settings and the built environment. For example, the front to the garden is dominated by a wide canal linked to the main entrance by a long stone bridge. The relatively massive built forms (the bridge, the tall entrance) provide a strong counterpoint to the water. On the same note, many spaces on the interior of the garden are narrow, claustrophobic, and framed more by walls and corridors than they are by natural forms such as rockeries or vegitation along China tour packages.

The design of the museum is simple, but solemn. It has a certain poetic charm resulting from its historical and geographical features combined with the cultural art for Chengdu tours. The mound-shaped architectural complex seems to come out from the earth abruptly. This design was intended to symbolize the local culture, telling the world that this is the source of Shu culture and the entire Yangtze River civilization. The winding, arc-shaped architecture directly expresses the profound nature of these mounds. On top of the structure, a triangular tower represents the connection of heaven and earth, gods and human beings. The three large bronze masks were hung high on top of the tower. They are the symbols of the Sanxingdui Museum, still shining the light of the Shu people who lived millennia ago.

It fully shows the broadness and profundity of Sanxingdui culture. The design of Sanxingdui Museum has many architectural breakthroughts.

Huanglong (32°37'-32°54'N, 103°37'-104°08'E) is a World Heritage Site located in the northern Sichuan Province on Map of China that has outstanding travertine formations, 3300 cascading terraced pools, hot springs and waterfalls lying beneath snow-capped mountains which carry the easternmost Chinese glacier. The region is rich in forests and unspoiled habitats, rare plants and rare animals including the giant panda and the Sichuan golden snub-nosed monkey.

Due to thousands of years of geological evolution, Huanglong consists of numerous unique landscapes of geological landforms along Chengdu tours. Glacial revolution, terrane structure, stratum of carbonic acid rock, tufa water and climatic conditions such as artic-alpine sun light have created this world-famous travertine landscape. These accumulated travertine landscapes and fascinating pools are Huanglong's main attraction. The total length of the travertine is 3.6km and it is thought to look like a huge golden dragon wheeling through the snow-capped mountains of the valley. The main landscapes are travertine banks, amazingly colorful ponds and travertine waterfalls and caves.

On the top of Huanglong, flower-spinning pool is some ten metres away from coloured pool. Being round, the pool so is crystal that you can see its bottom. Water gushing from below makes ripples before your eyes. If you throw flowers in it, the flowers will spin then. The reason for this phenomenon remains unclear yet. When come to Chengdu, you will like China tourism.

It was first made famous when the renowned Chinese poet Du Fu lived in seclusion on its slopes in a thatched house and penned the famous poem "the window contains the range of the century snow from Xiling, the gate anchors the ship coming from Kingdom of Wu."

Because the climate of Xiling Snow Mountain during Chengdu tours is cold relatively (the temperature in months of winters is often below 10 degrees Celsius, which is coming to reach the point of freezing. However, considering that the altitude of the site is high and the weather is sunny, the temperatureis quietly warmer), snow keeps stable on the ski mountain during the winter season of its peak.

Located at the Jinhe Road junction, Qingyang District and being in the list of Chengdu Historical and Cultural Protection Project, Broad and Narrow Alley is composed of broad alley, narrow alley and across alleys, among which of China tourism, there are a lot of traditional courtyards, or Siheyuan. The courtyards among the alleys were developed pretty well with the development of the Qing Dynasty. However, the alleys were constructed into western-styled architectures at the late Qing Dynasty; and during the period of the Republic of China the owners of the courtyards were changed into some noble families, and ever since then, the structure of the alleys remained till now.

Arriving early in the morning during your Chengdu tours, don’t be disappointed, or surprised, to find that most stores are still closed. Make your way to the Wide and Narrow Alleys Culture Wall. On this 300meter-long brick wall, dozens of black-and-white pictures are displaying to you the daily life of the working-class plebeians in the early 20th century. Though the wall was erected quite recently, the 40,000 bricks composing it are genuine antiques, collected from all over Sichuan, dating back to Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasty. The interesting thing is, the pictures are all seamlessly half-embossed, courtesy of local sculptor Zhu Cheng. So if you take a close look, those rickshaw-pullers, street-vendors, horses and grooms are like coming out of the wall to tell you their stories. If that doesn’t consume the whole morning, why not pay a visit to the Chengdu Life Experience Center on Wide Alley, which is actually a museum disguise as a middle-class family of seven in 1935.

Now, the two alleys are a string of trinket stands, fancy restaurants and teahouses, home to more than one major international chain and a few art dealers. The streets are now clean and beautiful but much of their original charm has departed with the dust. Despite much of the new architecture emulating or reusing the pre-existing edifices, it is a changed place. When come to Chengdu, you may also interested in Jiuzhaigou tour packages.

Covering 13.5 acres with over 190 halls and rooms, Wenshu Monastery rides north to south and appeals to a great many visitors home and abroad by its graceful garden, solemn halls, and masses of cultural relics.?

Before your Chengdu tours, some breif history you should know. Originally built during Southern Dynasties (420-589), Wenshu Monastery of Chengdu was firstly called Miaoyuanta Monastery and renamed Xinxiang Monastery in Tang Dynasty (618-907). Unfortunately, the monastery was destroyed during war in Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). According to the story, in 1681 in Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), a Chan master Cidu came to this deserted temple and did ascetic practices. After his Parinirvana, he was cremated when a Manjushri image emerged in the sky with rutilant for a long time; people believed that the Cidu was just the incarnation of Manjushri, and later in 1697 during the rein of Emperor Kangxi (1654-1722), the present temple was rebuilt and named as Wenshu Monastery (wenshu is the pronunciation of Manjushri in Chinese). In later years, the monastery was extended for several times by successors of Kangxi.

In addition, inside the monastery preserved some precious Buddhist staff, such as the parietal bone of Master Xuan Zang of Tang Dynasty, India Pattra-leaf scriptures, Japan gold-plated scriptures, Thousand-Buddha cassock, hair embroidery Guanyin, Tiaosha Wenshu. The parietal bone of Master Xuan Zang, in particular, is one of the three pieces only preserved in China for China Themed Tours.

Its predecessor was the Tang Dynasty Miaoyuan Pagoda Temple, which was renamed “Xinxiang Temple” in the Song Dynasty. Later it was destroyed in war. It is said in the Qing Dynasty red light was reported to have appeared at the place. The government officers then assigned personnel to find out about it. And it was discovered that the image of Bodhisattva Manjusri (Wen Shu) appeared in the red light. So in the 36th year of Emperor Kangxi’s reign (1697), fund was raised to rebuild the temple, which has been since then named the Wenshu Monastery.?

Experience People’s Park Filled with Happiness

People's Park is the most popular park in Sichuan's capital city, situated in southwest of China Map and is host to a colorful mix of Chengdu residents who are always out enjoying themselves in the open air. The park is not only an enjoyable place to relax and mingle; it also has great historical significance. It was the site of the 1911 protests against the Qing government's policy of handing over railway construction to foreigners. These Chengdu protests and strikes set off a chain reaction that helped topple the Qing dynasty.

The central park of Chengdu is beautifully landscaped for Chengdu tours with plenty of eye-catching activity and a few secluded areas of respite. While the lakes, rockeries, dense shrubs and stone bridges create a picturesque scene, probably the best part of People’s Park is the people. Playing cards or checkers, dancing, singing, playing music, imbibing at the teahouse or rowing on the lake, this park provides a perfect point for people watching. Founded in 1911 and originally know as Little City Park, People’s Park also holds the towering Monument to the Martyrs of the Railway Protection Movement. Erected in 1913, the obelisk honors those who died in an uprising against corruption with regards to the building of the Chuan-han Railway line just three years earlier.

The Highlight of Qingcheng Mountain along Your Tour

Located 68 kilometers northwest of the city of Chengdu and 16 kilometers southwest of the city of Dujiangyan in Sichuan Province, Mt. Qingchen has been an important Taoist site for centuries for China tourism and is believed to be one of the places where Taoism was first born. Covering 200 square kilometers, the scenic area of the mountain includes Mingjiang River, several peaks, with Laoxiao Ding Peak being the highest at 1260 meters above sea level, woods and several temples. The peaks stand in such position that resemble a natural city wall.

Indeed, Qingcheng Mountain can be experienced differently depending which path you chose, the "back mountain"—the closer and commonly recognized as easier of the two—offers a shorter hike and more Taoist sites of importance. It's also more crowded with tourists and more expensive, but most likely your choice if you're only out for Chengdu tours one day or generally not a hiking fanatic.

Qingcheng Mountain is a famous Taoist mountain because it is one of the places where the Taoist religion originated. A Taoist teacher named Zhang came to the mountain and preached during the Eastern Han Dynasty period. Since then, over the last two millennia, dozens of other temples were built on the mountain. Tianshi Cave is one of the main attractions since it is where Zhang is said to have preached. If you want a perfect private China tour, you just contact us.

Teach You Some Chinese Kung Fu When You Come to China

Chinese Kung Fu (Martial Arts or as popularly referred to as Gongfu or Wushu) is a series of fighting styles which has developed over a long historical period in China and it is most attractive part along China tourism. Nowadays, it is regarded as a traditional sport gaining more and more popularity and even stands as a representative for Chinese culture. Styles including Shaolin, Tai Chi and Qigong have many followers worldwide. Some westerners think that all Chinese people are Kung Fu masters. That’s not true, but this traditional heritage has its unique existence in modern times and left much influence on the locals’ lifestyle.

Some famous Chinese Kung Fu will be introduced to you for Chinese Kung fu Tour:

28-step Spear Form
The use of the spear is often compared with the use of the straightsword. As would be expected, spear techniques rely on threading and thrusting maneuvers and swift footwork which take advantage of the spear′s speed and long reach.

16-step Staff Form
Wushu′s simplest weapon is also one of its most impressive. The staff is a long weapon and draws the greater bulk of its power from the sheer speed of its whirling strikes. Staff use relies heavily on properly mastered empty-hand basics for its stancework and jumping techniques.

Chinese Kung Fu is now an integral element of Chinese culture, and it also has global appeal. Bruce Lee and his films are widely attributed with generating the initial interest; his legacy has been kept alive by actors such as Jet Li and Jackie Chan. If you interested, you can take part in our private China tour to learn some Chinese Kungfu.

Chinese Kung Fu Culture in Shaolin Temple of Henan Province

If you are planning a Luoyang Tour, it is highly recommended to include a side trip to Shaolin Temple from Luoyang, which is mot far from each other on China Map. Shaolin Temple is the cradle of the Chinese Zen Buddhism and the Shaolin Martial Arts. Then how to visit Shaolin Temple during your Luoyang travel?

The Shaolin Temple is said to have been founded earlier, in 495 AD, by another Buddhist monk, Ba Tuo, with the support of the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty and nowadays became a famous site for Chinese Kung fu Tour. Situated at the Song Mountain, the Central Sacred Mountain, the temple was frequented by generals and Emperors. It is likely that retired soldiers were among the monks in the temple. It is probable that martial arts were known and even practised at the temple throughout its history. But the unique aspect of Shaolin culture is the combination of martial training with Chan (the Chinese equivalent of Zen) Buddhism. The art of combat was sublimated into the monks’ spiritual development. This violence is captured in a moral framework. The monks could not kill or use certain forbidden techniques. The skill is refined and the training becomes part of the practitioner’s progress into the Chan discipline.

Three major things to see are the martial arts performances staged near the entrance, the old architecture further up the mountain and the Forest of Pagodas. It is said that in the early 1900s, 90 percent of the buildings in the big complex were destroyed. What remains is mainly from the Ming and Qing eras.

Famous Scenic Spot of Gudong Waterfall in Guilin

As a famous four-star national scenic spot for China day tours, the Gudong Waterfall Scenic Spot of Gulin, which is about 26 kilometers apart from the downtown of Guilin, has been being a very popular tourist destination. It is just like a big natural mountain-park with many kinds of age-old plants where birds live brightly. There, not only can you enjoy nice landscapes and delicious local snacks but also you can attend some interesting activities inside. Therefore, when people are traveling in Guilin, they are always told that it is a must-see there.

In any case, we had lost count of how many tiers were in the waterfall series that made up the overall Gudong Waterfalls of Guilin day trips. Most of the waterfalls were probably no more than 5m or so (maybe 10m tops) so on their own, each of the falls weren't really anything that special. So that kind of further reinforced the notion that this place was more about getting wet than taking photos. Our visit started off by walking past an interesting sheltered bridge, which also looked like it was atop some kind of dam that created a man-made lake. We noticed there were some people who were able to boat on the man-made lake (probably at an extra fee), which we didn't do. But the lake itself was fringed by lush bush scenery as well as a few pagodas here and there, and that sort of gave this place that uniquely Chinese flavor.

Besides, Gudong Waterfall features its unique way of enjoying waterfalls for Classic China travel. Being different from the ordinary way of viewing the waterfall, visitors can experience the excitement personally by climbing a rushing waterfall-battling. In the hot summer, many people choose to climb into the waterfall, which is just like the sport of rock climbing in the cool water, exciting and cool. Maybe it’s a good way for people to relax themselves, relieve summer heat and the stress of work by climbing the waterfall.

Different Shanghai Tour with Fuxing Park

This leafy spot with a large lawn, laid out by the French in 1909 and later used by the Japanese as a parade ground in the late 1930s, remains one of the city’s more enticing parks for China day tours.

Undoubtedly one of the most charming spaces in the city, this well-loved park is home to regular dancers, musicians, kite flyers and more throughout its well manicured space for Shanghai day trips. Although the main stretch of grass is surrounded by a low railing in places, no one seems to pay any attention to it and parkgoers are generally left alone to enjoy the greenery. If you're looking to bring a picnic, head for the northeastern corner of the lawn, toward the Marx and Engels statue, and you’ll be able to base yourself just a short walk from the Yandang Lu Alldays convenience store for extra supplies.

Although the park is closed at night, nearby Park 97 and the Party World Karaoke places mean that you'll likely run into crowds of party-goers around this area in the evenings, particularly on weekends. Day tours to Beijing,Xian,Guilin,Shanghai are also available, you can choose what you like by contacting us.

The more reliable one says that the name originates from the Qibao Temple, famed for its good reputation. It was this that contributed to the growth of business and culture of the previously unknown town.

In the center of the town is the old street, comprised of two sections, the southern and western lesser streets. The southern part is filled with traditional restaurants serving a variety of tasty snacks. The western streets are occupied by old shops selling arts and crafts, antiques and calligraphy works.

This well preserved mausoleum is the joint tomb of the the Tang dynasty Emperor Gaozong and Empress Wu Zetian. Empress Wu's rise to power is particularly impressive given that she became an Empress in her own right in a society where the highest position a woman could generally hope to obtain was that of concubine. After her husband died, the Empress Wu ruled the country until her death in 705. Criticism of this "feminist" Empress ranges from those who saw her as little more than a whore to those who consider that she was blood thirsty and tyrannical.

The mausoleum holds great historical significance for China and China city travel, as it contains a unique joint tomb of an emperor couple, Emperor Gaozong and his wife, later Empress Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty. Empress Wu Zetian is known as the first and only female empress in all of China.

A large number of cultural relics and murals have been discovered within the Qianling Mausoleum. The tomb of Princess Yongtai is especially known for its extremely fine wall paintings and for the rarity of the many items found. The wall paintings found in her tomb depict some famous buildings of the time, vivid scenes of courtly life, and magnificent ceremonial parades.

Since the fourteenth century, the mosque has undergone numerous reconstructions. Most of buildings extant today are from the Ming and Qing Dynasties of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

During your Xian day trips, what you should know? The mosque occupies a narrow lot about 48 meters by 248 meters, and the precinct walls enclose a total area of 12,000 square meters. Unlike many Chinese mosques, it has the layout of a Chinese temple: successive courtyards on a single axis with pavilions and pagodas adapted to suit Islamic function. Unlike a typical Buddhist temple, however, the grand axis of the Great Mosque of Xian is aligned from east to west, facing Mecca. Five successive courtyards, each with a signature pavilion, screen, or freestanding gateway, lead to the prayer hall located at the western end of the axis.

The innermost courtyard is designed with the Yizhen Pavilion (aka Phoenix Pavilion) as the center, equipped with wing-halls, tablet inscriptions, two pavilions for housing steles, and a crabapple-flower-shaped fountain. Stepping into the stone gate and standing on the platform, visitors can catch sight of a 1300-square-meter hall with more than 600 colored paintings that can hold over people to worship at a time. If you like China Travel Agency will specially arrange it for you.

Jade Buddha Temple, a Buddhist Temple You May Like

The Jade Buddha Temple is a Buddhist temple in Shanghai, China. If you plan China day tours because of short time for travel, Shanghai Jade Buddha Temple will be suggested to you. As with many modern Chinese Buddhist temples, the current temple draws from both the Pure Land and Chan traditions of Mahayana Buddhism. It was founded in 1882 with two jade Buddha statues imported to Shanghai from Burma by sea. These were a sitting Buddha (1.95 metres tall, 3 tonnes), and a smaller reclining Buddha representing Buddha's death. The temple now also contains a much larger reclining Buddha made of marble, donated from Singapore, and visitors may mistake this larger sculpture for the original, smaller piece.

Although the history of the Jade Buddha Temple is not very long, the old-time and classical architectural style makes it unique and inimitable in this modern city attracting more and more people for Shanghai day trips. Devajara Hall, Mahavira Hall and the Jade Buddha Tower make up the main structure of the temple and at sides are the Kwan-yin Dian Hall, the Amitabha Dian Hall, the Zen Tang Hall, the Dining-Room and the Recumbent Buddha Hall.

Open daily, it serves a range of noodle dishes for five yuan per bowl, the most popular of which is 'double mushroom noodles'. Other dishes are served at moderate prices. Tickets are sold by color and this ticket is turned in inside the main eating room and your soup is then delivered to your table which you might share with others. Upstairs is a much more upscale restaurant at much higher prices. When come to Shanghai, you won't confused about your Classic China travel.

Big Wild Goose Pagoda and Da Ci'en Temple Tour

The Big Goose Pagoda, perhaps the most beautiful building left in Xi'an today, is one of the city's most distinctive and outstanding landmarks for China day tours. Completed in 652 CE, the pagoda was built at the request of the Tang monk, Xuan Zang, whose pilgrimage to India is immortalized in the 16th-century Chinese novel Pilgrimage to the West or Monkey.

Big Wild Goose Pagoda was first built in 652 in the Tang Dynasty. Xian day trips with Big Wild Goose Pagoda will help you know something interesting. Xuanzang, a prominent Buddhist scholar of the time, planned to have a huge stone pagoda built to house the Sanskrit Buddhist scriptures he had brought back from India, but the plan fell through because it was difficult to find the needed stone and the cost was prohibitive. He decided instead to build a mud pagoda reinforced with bricks, but the mud pagoda was not strong and the construction was not done properly. The pagoda collapsed not long after it was built. It was rebuilt between 701 and 704 on the order of Empress Wu Ze Tian.

Da Ci'en Temple is the home of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. In 648, to commemorate the dead virtuous queen, royalty ordered the building of a temple named 'Ci'en' (Mercy and Kindness), for which the status and scale far exceeded all others. Today, with an area of 32,314 square meters (38,648.5 square yards), one seventh of the original area, it still retains its grandeur. Shanghai day trips are also convenient from Xi'an.

Experience the Magnificence of Terracotta Army During Xian Tour

The Terracotta Army or the "Terracotta Warriors and Horses" is a form of funerary art buried with the emperor in 210–209 BCE and whose purpose was to protect the emperor in his afterlife. It is best part of Classic China travel to experience the magnificence of Terracotta Army. The Terracotta Army was discovered on 29 March 1974 to the east of Xi'an in Shaanxi province by farmers digging a water well approximately 1.6 kilometres (0.99 mi) east of the Qin Emperor's tomb mound at Mount Li (Lishan), a region riddled with underground springs and watercourses.

Best Xian day trips with Terracotta Army make you feel different with other trips. The Terracotta Army is a collection of terracotta figures showcasing the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. There are three main square-shaped pits hosting these warriors, chariots and horses. According to the discovery, there are over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses buried in these three pits. The terracotta figures are life-like and life-sized. They vary in height, uniform and hairstyle in accordance with rank. The colored lacquer finish, individual facial features, and actual weapons and armor from battle were used in manufacturing these figures created a realistic appearance. The original weapons were stolen shortly after the creation of the army and the coloring has faded greatly. However, their existence serves as a testament to the amount of labour and skill involved in their construction. It also reveals the power the First Emperor possessed, enabling him to command such a monumental undertaking as this.

If you take Bus 5(306) from Xian Railway Station to Terracotta Army Museum, don’t get off at Qin Shihuang’ Mausoleum. Qin Shihuang’s Mausolem is not much worth visiting since it is just a mound, not excavated yet. So don’t confuse Terracotta Army with Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum. The entrance for Qin Shihuang’ Mausoleum is also included in your ticket for Terracotta Army Museum. As the starting point of Silk Road in ancient time, you also can experience Silk Road travel here.

Xi'an One Day Countyside Tour with Mount Li

Which city you will choose? Some people like to come Xi'an for China day tours, because of Terra-Cotta Warriors. But today I will bring you to visit Mount Li. A popular spot for its cool breezes and panoramic views of the area's ruggedly beautiful countryside, Mount Li was once favored by Tang Dynasty emperors as a summer resort. Today, it's a great place to enjoy a day hike. You'll find hot springs and ancient pavilions off many trails and a splendid view from the top (1,256 m—4,121 ft— above sea level). It's a good idea to bring along a bit of food and water, as dining options on the mountain are largely limited to a few snack stands at the top. If hiking isn't your cup of tea, a cable car is in service to whisk you to the peak.

Xian day trips with Mount Li will give you a different experience. Some ancient tales say that the literal Chinese name "Black Steed Mountain" stems from its resemblance to a horse whilst others that the name arose during the Shang and Zhou Dynasties because the "Black Steed Tribe", lived in this area. Another legend cites the mountain as the place from where the goddess Nüwa, creator of mankind, repaired the wall of heaven. Mount Li Sunset is one of the eight scenic sights in Guanzhong (the area between the Loess Plateau and Qinling Mountain in Shaanxi). The Sunset Pavilion (Wanzhao Ting) was built to appreciate the splendid sunset. From the pavilion one can have a bird's eye view of the Huaqing Hot Spring, the East Garden and the Wei River.

Today, you are less likely to come across Tang emperors. Instead, we suggest you enjoy the Huaqing Hot Springs, a beautifully scenic area that includes Nine-Dragon Lake, or better, to climb the numerous paths to its summit, passing Daoist temples and ancient pavilions like Wanzhao Ting on your way.

It was first opened to the public in 1925. The building of Beihai Park was the result of many emperors’dream of finding a secret potion that was the elixir of life by resembling the three magic mountains called Penglai, Yingzhou and Fangzhang on the sea where the gods who lived there were believed to have a secret potion for immortal life. So Beihai Park was laid out in the form of one pool and three “mountains”.

The Jade Isle, the center of the park, features luxuriant trees and a host of temple halls. Atop the isle is the 35.9-meter-high White Dagoba. The dagoba together with a painting depicting Emperor Shunzhi (the first emperor of the Qing) meeting with the Fifth Dalai is the witness of the Central Government-Tibet alliance at that time. The top is a gold-gilded copper lid decorated with dozens of bells which jingle in the wind. In front of the Dagoba stand the Temple of Eternal Peace (Yong'an si) and Hall of Universal Peace.

Geographically, the French Concession's length and breadth is expansive (about 8 km wide, stretching west of the Bund), and at any given time, it is impossible to explore all of it, so have Shanghai day trips here is enough. Due to the French Concession being as vast as it is, we thought it best to show you the highlights for you to explore in your time in Shanghai. We wanted to make sure that we cover the better parts of the French Concession and also stay away from highly touristy parts — which have been mentioned at the bottom. We have also made sure you know which the prime streets are in the former French Concession, as that's not really been concisely covered anywhere.

For many years, the area was administered by the Chinese as two districts, Xuhui to the West and Luwan to the East. In 2011, Luwan was merged into Huangpu District for administration, but for the traveller it has more in common with the rest of the old French Concession so we cover it here rather than in our Huangpu article.
