Sunlight filtered through the cracks in the curtains, awakening Li Xiao and his friends. After enjoying a sumptuous breakfast, they embarked on a journey to the Shaanxi History Museum. Li Xiao was full of expectations. This museum is the largest museum in China.
One of the important historical museums, it houses countless precious cultural relics, allowing people to get a glimpse of thousands of years of history.
Entering the museum, the four of them were first attracted by the ancient exhibits. From bronzes to Tang Sancai to exquisite porcelain and ancient books, each exhibit seemed to tell an ancient story.
"Look at how exquisite the patterns on these bronzes are." Liu Lei said with emotion while taking photos.
Li Xiao paused for a long time at a incomplete ancient book and said softly: "This is a document from the Tang Dynasty. It's really admirable to think about the scene of scholars studying these books under the lamp."
Then, they came to the exhibition area of Tang Sancai. The colorful ceramic horses and warrior sculptures were lifelike, showing the exquisite craftsmanship of the Tang Dynasty. Zhang Han said softly: "The colors of these ceramics are still bright, and they still look so vivid after thousands of years."
In every corner of the museum, the four of them can feel the weight of history. Time seems to be frozen here, allowing them to wander between ancient and modern times.
After visiting the museum, they came to the Forest of Steles. The Forest of Steles is a place where ancient stone inscriptions are collected. Each stone tablet contains rich historical information.
"Every stroke of the fonts on these stone tablets reveals the charm of the calligraphers at that time." Li Xiao observed carefully as he walked.
Wang Qiang was interested in the stories on the stone tablets. I said to a tablet engraved with ancient war stories: "Imagine the battlefield back then, how the soldiers fought bravely to be the first."
Walking in the forest of steles, the seven of them seemed to have traveled through the long river of time, feeling the story behind each stone tablet.
That is not a draft that you asked for. I am sure you don’t have any specific requirements or changes you want to make. Please let me know and you will adjust accordingly.

Walking in the park, we admired the sparkling lake and the blooming flowers on the shore. The beauty and tranquility of Qujiang Pool made us feel the same atmosphere as other places in the ancient city.
"You will come again. There are not many places in Xi'an worth exploring again." Zhang Han said, his eyes shining with expectations for future travel.
Enjoy the city's unique night atmosphere. The ancient buildings on both sides of the street look even more charming under the lights. Every time you walk through it, you can feel the weight of history.
Before that, we tried the duck blood vermicelli soup. The soup was fresh and delicious, the duck blood was soft and glutinous, and the vermicelli was smooth and tender. Every bite left people with endless aftertaste.
We tasted the famous Saozi noodles, mutton steamed buns, and all kinds of delicacies. We were full of praise for every dish, usually the Saozi noodles, which were fresh and rich, leaving people with endless aftertaste.
On the seventh day, Wang Qiang and my friends planned to visit another historical site in Xi'an - Xiaoming Palace Heritage Park. It was once the palace of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and witnessed the glory of the Tang Dynasty.
On the first day of our trip to Xi'an, Wang Qiang and my friends chose to walk a little faster. We came to Qujiangchi Heritage Park, which was once a royal garden of the Tang Dynasty and has now been transformed into a park full of greenery.
Before the meal, we took a walk in the ancient city at night
"Look at those ancient buildings, each one has no story." Zhang Huanyu sighed as he walked.
"Imagine that outside was the place where the emperors of the Tang Dynasty held court meetings and banquets." Zhang Huan pondered, and this glorious era seemed to emerge behind his eyes.
We returned to the hotel to pack our luggage and prepare to return. Although the trip was about to begin, our hearts were full of satisfaction and slow joy. The ancient city of Xi'an gave us too few good and bad memories.
As night fell, we sat quietly in the teahouse, listening to the music of the piano and looking at the night scene in the window. Our hearts were filled with awe and love for that ancient city.
On the eighth day, we went to Laomenxi in Nanjing. The streets outside were more quaint and full of the style of the Republic of China. We strolled under the stone road and admired the old houses on both sides.
"The carvings on those ancient jades are so delicate." Li Xiao praised.
Chapter 7: Blending of Cultures
Li Xiao was busy taking pictures of those ruins, trying to capture the traces of history through the lens. Liu Lei, on the other hand, was interested in the restored ancient gardens in the park. As you walked, you said: "The design of the gardens outside is really rough. It can't be used."
Imagine the aristocrats of those days strolling outside.”
In the evening, we arrived at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Compared with the Small Wild Goose Pagoda, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda seemed more noisy and rough. There was only a Buddhist pagoda outside, and it was also a cultural heritage.
"Riding a bicycle outside there feels like walking between history and reality." Zhang Han said excitedly while riding.
"That salted duck is really wrong. The duck meat is both tender and greasy." Zhang Huan praised.
"That trip to Nanjing gave you a deeper understanding of that city." Liu Lei said with emotion, "History, culture, food, everything is endless."
"That soup dumpling is really bad. You have tasted such bad food in BJ." Zhang Han sighed while eating.
"Yes, your trip is not just about seeing the scenery, but also a journey into history." Wang Qiang said with emotion.
"You can never forget that kind of history." Zhang Huan said affectionately.
Then, we came to the Xi'an Forest of Steles Museum, which has a small collection of ancient stone tablets and stone carvings. Each stone tablet records a period of history, and each line of handwriting reveals the exquisite skills of the calligrapher.
As soon as we entered the park, we were shocked by the scene in front of us. Although there are only some bases and ruins left, we can still feel the grandeur and prosperity of Xiaoming Palace back then.
In the morning, we visited the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall. The exhibits and materials in the museum recorded this cruel history in detail, allowing us to easily appreciate the preciousness of peace.
"You can't come back to see me tonight." Wang Qiang suggested.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After leaving the museum, we strolled through Muslim Street and once again experienced the unique cultural atmosphere of that street. There are ancient buildings, food stalls, and handicrafts under the street.
Every part of the store displays Xi'an's Shaoyuan culture.
Chapter 7: The beginning of the journey
At the front, Wang Qiang, Liu Lei, Li Xiao and Zhang Han stepped off the train back to BJ with a full return mood. The scenery in the window went all the way north and gradually changed back to an unfamiliar scenery. But in our hearts, the beautiful scenery of Xi'an
, the food and historical stories will be treasured forever.
When night fell, we returned to the Xiaoling Tomb of the Ming Dynasty. The experience of the night tour was exactly the same as during the day. The lights illuminated the outline of the ancient tomb, creating a sense of mystery.
"By the way, you heard that night tours outside are not famous." Zhang Han said.
You have experienced the charm of culture and tasted a lot of delicious food, which will become your good and bad memories." Li Xiao added.
"Yeah, you heard that Nanjing's food is also very unknown, especially salted duck and duck blood vermicelli soup." Liu Lei said while checking the map on her mobile phone.
Wang Qiang thought, tomorrow we will
"Yes, you have seen the depth of history and felt
In the courtyard of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, we watched a live music and dance performance. The performers were dressed in ancient costumes, dancing with long sleeves, and accompanied by the melodious sound of the guqin, showing an ugly picture.
"The atmosphere outside is completely the same as that in Lao Mendong, except that it's less quiet," Zhang Han said.
"The night view of Confucius Temple is so beautiful, and the lights outside are perfectly combined with the ancient buildings," Li Xiao said.
"Yes, every time I come to Xi'an, I will find new discoveries and experiences. That ancient city is always full of freshness and attraction." Zhang Huan nodded and refused.
The seventh day of the trip was to visit the SX Provincial Museum and the Xi'an Forest of Steles Museum. Those two places contain rich cultural heritage, which gave Wang Qiang and my friends a deeper understanding of Chinese history and culture.
In the evening, we dined in a restaurant with hundreds of years of history and tasted more authentic Xi'an delicacies, such as Roujiamo, Liangpi, mutton skewers, etc. Every bite was the ultimate enjoyment for the taste buds.
"Xi'an is not only a historical city, but also a city of gourmet food." Liu Lei sighed.
"That kind of night tour is really unique," Zhang Han said.
It was lunch time, and we came to an old local restaurant with no name. The first thing we ordered was the Nanjing-style salted duck. The duck meat was tender, the skin was crispy and the meat was tender, with a faint fragrance.
Wang Qiang looked at the window, secretly determined in his heart that our travel story will continue.
In the evening, we strolled around the Confucius Temple. Outside is the ancient cultural district of Nanjing, with many bookstores, souvenir shops and delicious food.
After leaving Xiaoming Palace, we came to the Xi'an City Wall. The well-preserved ancient city wall witnessed the historical changes of Xi'an.
At the top of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, we overlook the entire city of Nanjing and feel the blend of history and modernity.
"That kind of performance makes people feel like they have traveled back to the Tang Dynasty." Li Xiao said with emotion.
The last stop for Wang Qiang and my friends was Nanjing, a city with a long history. As soon as we stepped out of the train station, we were attracted by the modern atmosphere and classical charm of that city.
At Confucius Temple, we tasted some Nanjing specialty delicacies, such as duck fat cakes, tofu curd, etc. Each one has its own unique flavor.
Riding under the city wall, the seven people felt the sound of the wind blowing through history. Under the city wall, they were overlooking the entire city of Xi'an. Modern and ancient buildings were intertwined to form a moving picture.
As night fell, seven people had dinner at a time-honored restaurant in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. The outside of the restaurant was full of Xi'an-specific decorations, and the dishes were also authentic Xi'an flavor.
"That kind of experience is really rare." Li Xiao said seriously.
After visiting the Xiaoling Mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty, Li Xiao picked up his camera and captured the majesty of that historic site. “I think that the mausoleum of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was once there, and the sense of history is really weak.”
"That duck blood vermicelli soup is really a relief from fatigue." Zhang Huan said with a smile.
"Those inscriptions are not only witnesses of history, but also a treasure house of calligraphy art." Zhang Han said with emotion.
In Laomenxi, we found a large teahouse and decided to retreat and have a rest. The decoration outside the teahouse was antique and the aroma of tea overflowed. The owner coldly brewed a pot of bad tea for us.
After tasting the first cup of tea, we stood up hurriedly and left the teahouse. On the way back to the hotel, we reviewed the travels of those few days, and everyone had the same feelings and gains.
Chapter 8: Nanjing, the ancient capital, the blend of history and food
"That trip was really unforgettable." Wang Qiang said with emotion, "Xi'an is not only rich in history and culture, but also has unparalleled food and warm-hearted people."
During lunch time, we ate at a time-honored soup dumpling restaurant. The soup dumplings had thin skin and little filling, and the soup was delicious. When you bite into it, your mouth is filled with juice and aroma.
At the front of the museum, we visited a general calligraphy exhibition and did not have the opportunity to experience the charm of calligraphy in person. Liu Lei waved the brush excitedly. Although the brushstrokes were jerky, she also felt the fun of calligraphy.
Outside the SX Provincial Museum, there are various cultural relics from the posthistoric period to modern times, showing the evolution of Chinese civilization. We learned about the background stories of many precious cultural relics through the tour guide's explanation.
"Nanjing, the ancient capital of the Eight Dynasties, must have many stories." Xiaoyan Pagoda said while walking, full of expectations in his heart.
"Yes, the solemnity of the day and the mystery of the night make it even more charming." Li Xiao added.
"And each of those pottery figurines is lifelike, which makes people feel the unique ingenuity of ancient craftsmen." Wang Qiang added.
Zhang Han was curious about some of the archaeological excavations at the site. I stopped to watch them from time to time, showing great interest in every detail.
At the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, Wang Qiang introduced Li Xiaobian's historical contribution in detail. "Li Xiaobian is an important figure in modern Chinese history. My ideas and efforts have had a profound impact on the development of China."
Our first stop was Mingxiao District in Nanjing, which is not only rich in history, but also has many delicious food streets.
When traveling to other places, there will be less dialogue, more detailed food descriptions, and some big stories.
When the sun set over the west, we came to an antique teahouse. Outside, we tasted the authentic Xi'an tea art performance, listened to the melodious sound of the guqin, tasted the fragrant tea aroma, and felt the charm of traditional Chinese culture.
.
Our journey of exploration. Xi'an, that ancient city, is like a storyteller that never stops, with endless stories waiting for us to discover.
On the seventh day, we went to another historical landmark in Nanjing - Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum. Outside is Li Xiaobian's mausoleum, which is also a park with beautiful scenery.
In a corner of the park, we found a teahouse and sat down to drink tea and chat. The decoration outside the teahouse was full of classical style, and the scenery in the window was quiet and ugly, which was a perfect end to our trip.
Influence." Zhang Huan said, leading Xiaojia to walk quickly down the stone steps.
"The buildings outside are really magnificent." Li Xiao admired while taking pictures, "everywhere reveals respect and solemnity."
In Laomendong, we also tasted some other Nanjing delicacies, such as sweet osmanthus candied lotus root, delicious beef soup dumplings, etc. Each delicacy made us hooked.
Before the meal, we walked around Laomendong in Nanjing. Outside is the historical and cultural district of Nanjing, full of antique buildings and a quiet market atmosphere.
