Dear tourists
hello everyone!
Welcome to Xi'an.
Xi'an, a famous historical and cultural city, is located in the middle of Weishui plain on the West Bank of the Yellow River. Here is a vast expanse of fertile land, a vast expanse of eight hundred Li Qinchuan. On the land of China, this dazzling pearl inlaid in the southern end of the Loess Plateau, once had a world-famous, extremely brilliant history and culture, but also had green waters and mountains, extremely beautiful natural landscape.
In the East and west of Xi'an, the Qinling Mountains, known as the "Oriental Alps", are crisscrossed and meandering. On this beautiful scenic line, there are Huashan Mountain, which is known as the first of the five mountains, Lishan Mountain in Lintong, which is famous for its hot spring soup pools, Zhongnan mountain, which is green in all seasons and rare in its interior, and Taiba Mountain, which is called a wonder for its snow cover in June. They form a natural and unique scenery group. In ancient Chang'an, there were eight rivers, namely, Weishui River, Chanshui River, bashui River, Laoshui River, Fengshui River, haoshui River and Yunshui River, surrounded by rippling blue waves.
This thousand year old capital at the foot of the Qinling Mountains and on the Bank of the Weihe River has Tongguan in the East and Sanguan in the West. In the north, the chidao, which was built in the Qin Dynasty, is a thoroughfare for fighting against Xiongnu and supplying supplies. In the south, Ziwu Road, TangLuo Road, Baoxie road and Chencang road can cross Hanzhong to Bashu. In the southeast, Wuguan road in Shangluo Mountain is the throat leading to Chu. In ancient times, Chang'an had convenient transportation, both land and water, dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It has always been a place for military strategists and emperors to make contributions.
Xi'an is an important birthplace of Chinese history and culture, and also one of the earliest developed regions of human civilization. In the thousands of years of history of the Chinese nation, perhaps no city can enjoy such a lofty status and incomparable brilliance as Xi'an: it is the capital of 13 dynasties since the Western Zhou Dynasty and the epitome of the first half of Chinese feudal society.
Since Zhou and Qin Dynasties, Xi'an has been in the center of politics, economy and culture for a long time with its unique historical position. In the 11th century B.C., the Zhou people grew stronger and stronger in Qishan and Fufeng areas in the western part of Guanzhong, and finally established their country after destroying the Shang Dynasty, and established their capitals in Fengjing and Haojing. Qin people successively established capitals in Yongcheng, Liyang and Xianyang, and went out of Hangu in the east to destroy the six states and establish an unprecedented unified Qin Empire.
The capital of Qin Dynasty is still Xianyang, which is near the water on the tableland. After the destruction of Qin Dynasty by Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty, he took a fancy to the eight hundred Li Qinchuan River, which is a vast expanse of fertile land, and chose to establish the capital on the South Bank of Weihe River, which is just across from qinxianyang. At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty and established a new dynasty, inheriting the capital and system of the Han family. When the Huangjin army rose, Dong Zhuo burned all the palaces in Luoyang, and the princes of the 18th route begged for Zhuo. Therefore, Dong Zhuo forced Emperor Xian to move westward to Chang'an. The Eastern Han Dynasty had six years here.
The scenic Fenghe river is full of a large number of cultural treasures from the Western Zhou Dynasty 3000 years ago. It is a magical and attractive place. Emperor min of the Western Jin Dynasty was the emperor in Chang'an, and he was destroyed in only three years. The former Zhao, the former Qin, the later Qin, the Western Wei and the Northern Zhou established their capitals here. Chang'an city experienced a long period of war and shortage of soldiers after the Han Dynasty.
In 581 ad, Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, unified China again. Later, in the southeast of Chang'an City in the Han Dynasty, Yu Wenkai, a famous architect, designed and supervised the construction of Daxing City, the capital of the Sui Dynasty. The scale, layout and scientific facilities of Daxing City obviously exceeded that of Chang'an City in Han Dynasty, which laid the foundation of Chang'an City in Tang Dynasty. Tang Dynasty is the heyday of Chinese history, and Chang'an city is also an incomparable brilliant model in the history of Chinese capital. Chang'an is not only the political, economic and cultural center of the Tang Empire, but also the largest international city in the east of the world.
"The ancient imperial state in the middle of Qin Dynasty". History chose Xi'an and Xi'an enriched history. Today, whenever people talk about the former Chang'an in Xi'an, they are full of national pride and admiration for the rich and incomparable ancient civilization of China for thousands of years.
If history chose Xi'an as the capital of emperors, making it the central stage of China's politics, economy and culture for more than a thousand years, then the emperors who once made great achievements here chose Guanzhong's profound and extensive loess land as their final destination. As a result, the dense and grand mausoleums of emperors spread all over Guanzhong with the arrogance of the past and the present, becoming one of the most unique cultural landscapes in Xi'an.
The imperial mausoleum in Shaanxi can be traced back to the mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor more than 5000 years ago. It is the mausoleum of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, the forefather of the Chinese nation. It is on the top of Qiaoshan mountain in Huangling County, north of Xi'an. Ever since ancient times and every year, countless Chinese and Miao descendants have come here to pay homage to the mausoleum, find their roots, ask their ancestors, and remember their saints. Apart from the mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor, from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, more than 70 emperors were also buried in Guanzhong.
Ancient Chang'an was not only the political and economic center of China for a long time, but also the center of religious culture. In the Tang Dynasty, with political stability and economic development, the religious culture of Chang'an reached its peak. At this time, not only the native Taoist culture in China was widely spread, but also the foreign Buddhist culture was in a prominent position in social life.
Since the introduction of Buddhism into China in the Han Dynasty, it has become the ideology of the gentry through the southern and Northern Dynasties. In the Tang Dynasty, it became a common practice to respect and worship Buddhism. As the eastern end of the "Silk Road" and a cosmopolitan metropolis, Chang'an has gathered eminent monks and missionaries from all over the world.
Inside and outside the city of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, there are many pagodas and temples, and there are many people who preach and listen to the Dharma. According to historical records, there are 122 monasteries and 31 nunnery monasteries in Chang'an city. Emperors and court dignitaries are proud to build monasteries and spend time with monks. The scale of these monasteries is also amazing. For example, Ci'en Temple, which is called "Chonglou Fudian, Yunge Dongfang, more than ten monasteries, has a total of 1896, covering 342 Mu". In the enlightened and open Tang Dynasty, not only the various sects of Buddhist temples and Taoism, as the national religion, were very active, but Nestorianism and Manichaeism also spread to China one after another, making indelible contributions to the prosperity of Chinese and foreign cultures.
Today, there are still many religious and cultural relics inside and outside Chang'an city. The towering big wild goose pagoda of Ci'en Temple and the beautiful small wild goose pagoda of Jianfu temple have become the symbol of Xi'an, a famous historical and cultural city. Famen Temple has become a Buddhist holy land again because of the excavation of four Buddhist finger relics collected in the Tang Dynasty. Daxingshan temple, Qinglong temple, Xiangji temple and other famous temples have also become symbols of friendly exchanges and tourist attractions between China and foreign countries. The famous Taoist Louguantai, Baxian palace and Huajue Lane Muslim temple in the city are important places for the spread of Taoist culture.
In history, the ancient city of Xi'an has provided a broad and bright stage for China to show its great and brilliant posture to the world, and made immortal contributions to the survival, progress and development of the Chinese nation. Perhaps it is just out of the reward for Xi'an that history generously presented this magical land with numerous historical relics and cultural relics. It is an invaluable treasure. It not only makes every Chinese proud and feel the responsibility of history, but also as one of the cream of human cultural heritage, let people from all over the world comprehend the clear trajectory of social civilization development and the surging creativity of human beings.
The historical relics in Xi'an and Guanzhong area have the integrity of rare historical sequence. This outstanding advantage is determined by the long-span characteristics of Xi'an's long history, which is difficult for many historical cities to match. Here, the Paleolithic artifacts of the Lantian ape man 1.15 million years ago and the painted pottery basin of the mud illusion of the matriarchal clan settlement in Banpo 6000 years ago jointly outline the context and footprints of the survival, reproduction and development of the primitive ancestors; the deep, dignified, mysterious and treacherous bronzes of the Shang and Zhou dynasties represent the living atmosphere of the aristocrats in the slave society; The magnificent terracotta warriors and horses and exquisite stone portraits of the Qin and Han Dynasties are wrapped with the political situation and flames of war in the early feudal society; the brilliant murals and colorful gold and silver wares of the Sui and Tang Dynasties record the glorious chapter of the golden age; and the steles, porcelain products, calligraphy and paintings of the song, yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties are the witness of the continued development of civilization in Xi'an after the loss of the prosperity of the imperial capital It is no exaggeration to say that it is no different to read a condensed general history of China to search the cultural relics of Xi'an in chronological order.
Xi'an and its surrounding areas are rich in cultural heritage, which is another advantage. Not to mention the large-scale sites such as FengHao of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Xianyang palace of the Qin Dynasty, Chang'an city of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the ancient buildings, temples, and grottoes of Meilun and meimian, the number of movable cultural relics alone has reached more than 600000 pieces (groups) according to preliminary statistics. Including ceramics, bronzes, jade, gold and silver, murals, stone and brick carvings, inscribed steles, seals and other categories. In this sense, the ancient city of Xi'an itself is a natural history museum, a palace of cultural art.
The natural landscape of Xi'an is also unique. In and around Xi'an, there are Xiyue Huashan, which is known as "the most dangerous place in the world", Zhongnan mountain, which is cultivated by Wang Chongyang, the founder of Quanzhen school, Taiba Mountain, which is known as "natural geological museum", Lishan Mountain, which is known as "Nuwa Butian", Louguantai, which is the most blessed place in Dongtian, and Wangchuan, the hometown of Chinese landscape "The hometown of ape man" -- Lantian cave and other scenic spots. The gardens in Xi'an are full of royal style.
Huaqing Palace tells the story of "song of everlasting regret" with its world's first hot spring and warm romantic love story; Xingqing palace describes the eternal story of "Li Ba's drunkenness"; a song "the setting sun is infinitely good, just near dusk" makes leyouyuan's dusk a charming landscape. "Last year and today in this gate, people's faces and peach blossoms were red. People do not know where to go, peach blossom still smile spring breeze If you have a chance to go to Weiqu, you will feel the true love under the peach tree with the dream of "human face peach blossom". There are 11 forest parks in Xi'an, which constitute the natural oxygen bar of the ancient city.
The combination of humanity and landscape constitutes the unique charm of ancient Xi'an.
As the first ancient capital of China, Xi'an, after more than 3000 years of development, shoulders numerous glorious and glorious dreams of the Chinese nation, and is firmly marching towards the future.
In 1949, after the founding of the people's Republic of China, the ancient city of Xi'an opened a new chapter in its own development history.

Dear tourists
There are hundreds of ancient city walls in China, among which the ancient city walls of Beijing, Nanjing and Xi'an are the largest. However, the ancient city walls of Beijing and Nanjing have been demolished or seriously damaged. The ancient city wall of Xi'an, which was built in 1370 ad, is still intact. When Japan came to Xi'an for a visit to China, they did not look at the pit of the terracotta warriors, the "eighth wonder of the world", but boarded the west gate tower, which was built more than 600 years ago, to appreciate the majestic appearance of the ancient city wall. Now, please come with me to visit the ancient city wall of Xi'an.
The origin of the city wall
Dear tourists, we have enjoyed the colorful and simple ancient city wall in the morning or sunset of the car shop these days. Now we come to the foot of the city wall, please walk on the wall tour.
You must want to know what the real meaning of the wall is. The word "city wall" was originally derived from the word "city". According to Shuowen, "Cheng" is the interchangeable word of "Sheng", and "Sheng" is to accept the people, so the original meaning of the word "Cheng" is to encircle the people and form a country, which leads to the meaning of city wall. The "city" of the Great Wall, known as the backbone of the Chinese nation, also means the city wall. But later, with the development of society, the word "city" contains the explanation of today's city.
The word "city" first appeared in the inscriptions of the Zhou Dynasty, which vividly reflected the military use of ancient city walls. The military function of the city wall is to protect the private ownership, and in ideology, the size of the city wall is the strict embodiment of the hierarchical patriarchal system. Obviously, the ruler built the city wall to protect himself and declare the national power. The Xi'an City Wall we see now is one of the most famous city wall buildings in Chinese history. It took eight years from the third year of Honwu in Ming Dynasty (1370 A.D.) to the eleventh year of Honwu (1378 A.D.). It was built on the basis of the imperial city of Sui and Tang Dynasties. After repair, it basically maintained the complete appearance of feudal city wall architecture, reflecting the outstanding achievements of ancient Chinese city building technology.
Scale, structure and facilities of city wall
Dear tourists, how big is the Xi'an city wall? What is its structure? According to the calculation, the perimeter of Xi'an city wall is 11.9 kilometers, including 2590 meters of East city wall, 2631.2 meters of west city wall, 3441.6 meters of south city wall and 3241 meters of north city wall. Such a scale is rare at home and abroad.
You can see a small city with a guard gate outside the four gates of the city wall, which is called the urn city. The so-called urn means that once the enemy enters, he will be attacked from all sides on the wall of the urn, just like a turtle in the urn, unable to escape. Outside the urn, there is also a small city called Yangma city. In ancient times, there was a fixed time for the gate to open and close.
After the gate was closed, people who had not yet returned to the city could go to Yangma city and the park around the city with their own sheep and horses to rest and wait for the gate to open before entering the city. The Yangma city in Xi'an was completely destroyed in the late Qing Dynasty. I remember that in 1986, about 17.5 meters outside the north gate of Wengcheng, Andingmen (West Gate) of Xi'an City, the north gate of yangmacheng was found, 5.5 meters long and 2.4 meters wide. Now you can see the restored Yangma city on the outside of the South Gate urn. The wall is 198 meters long and 9.5 meters high.
Outside the moat, there were four rammed earth cities named Guocheng, which arched the four gates. According to "Xi'an Fu Zhi" volume nine records: Tang Tianyou years, Han construction Dongguo town and Xiguo town. Song, Jin and Yuan Dynasties are all de to this. During the Honwu Period of Ming Dynasty, most of Dongguo small cities were wrapped up in big cities, and those left outside were called Dongguo new city. Xiguo town in the late Ming Dynasty. At present, only part of the wall of Siguan Guocheng remains, and Guomen only has its name on the place name.
Now we come to the northeast of Xi'an City, which used to be the royal city of the Ming and Qin Dynasties. In the early Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanjin appointed his second son as the king of Qin and ordered him to stay in Xi'an to strengthen his control over the northwest.
The whole city is divided into two walls. The outer city wall is called Xiao wall, which is made of soil. The inner city wall is called brick wall because it is built with green bricks outside. After the Ming Dynasty, Xiaoqiang was destroyed. During the reign of Emperor Yongzheng of Qing Dynasty, temples were built in Xi'an, and most of the buildings in the palace of King Qin were demolished, and the brick city was changed into the Eight Banners church. At present, there are only a few remnant parts of ramming Earth City in the brick city of Qin Wangfu.
When Xi'an city was built in Ming Dynasty, there were four gates: "Changle", "Yongning", "anding" and "Anyuan". The name of the gate is engraved on the blue stone gate outside the gate. The building built on the gate of the big city is called the city tower, also called the main tower, which is the command post of the commander guarding the city. The building built on the gate hole of Wengcheng is called Jianlou, because there are arrow windows on the wall of the building, which was used for shooting arrows at that time.
In the Republic of China, four gates were opened, commonly known as Xiaosi gate: Zhongshan Gate (Xiaodong gate), which was built at the east end of Dongxin Street to commemorate Sun Yat Sen; Wumu gate (Xiaonan gate), which is at the south end of Sifu street today; Yuxiang gate (Xiaoxi gate), which is at the west end of Lianhu Road, was demolished after liberation; Jiefang gate (small North Gate), formerly known as Zhongzheng gate, was built at the north end of Jiefang Road when Longhai Road was opened to Xi'an. In 1952, it was demolished because of the expansion of the railway station. After liberation, Xi'an also opened up new city gates, including Jianguo gate, Heping gate, Wenchang gate, Zhuque gate and Hanguang gate. The north wall has Shangde gate. The east wall has Chaoyang Gate.
Most tourists know that there were 98 enemy towers on the walls of Xi'an in the Ming Dynasty. However, in 1982, the Xi'an city wall management office found that none of the ancient enemy towers were left, and only some of them still had foundation stones. After that, Xi'an rebuilt 12 enemy towers, which were brick and wood structures, with two stories of double eaves and two corridors on the ground floor.
The ancient city wall facilities not only built the enemy tower and arrow tower to prepare for martial arts, but also built the Kuixing tower to sacrifice Kuixing, the God who dominated the cultural movement. Kuixing tower in Xi'an was built in the east of the South Gate Tower, which was destroyed by the fire. Later, Kuixing building was rebuilt on the original site, which is worth seeing.
