The
Bell Tower, is a stately traditional building,
that marks the geographical center of the
ancient capital. From this important landmark
extend East, South, West and North Streets,
connecting the Tower to the East, South,
West and North Gates of the City Wall of
the Ming Dynasty.The engravings on the doors
of the Tower reflect the decorative fashion
of Ming and Qing Dynasties, recounting popular
stories of ancient China.
TANG PARADISE
Tang
Paradise is located in the Qujiang Resort,
southeast of the Xian City, Shaanxi Province.In
Tang Paradise, another surprising man-made
wonder is the water film which claims to
be the foremost in the whole world. The
screen of the movie is a film of water;
thus it can create a special kind of optical
effect which makes the frame tridimensional.
GREAT MOSQUE
The
Great Mosque in Xian is one of the oldest,
largest and best-preserved Islamic mosques
in China and its location is northwest of
the Drum Tower (Gu Lou) on Huajue Lane.In
Xian, it is really well worth a trip to
see the Great Mosque, not only for its centuries-old
history but also for its particular design
of mixed architecture - traditional Muslim
and Chinese styles.
MOSLIM STREET(HUIMIN
JIE)
Just
as its name implies, Moslem Street is the
hub of the Moslem community in Xian City,
Shaanxi Province. Located beside the Drum
Tower, it is about 500 meters (about 547
yards) long from south to north. Some of
the constructions are restaurants; while
others are stores. But here there is one
thing in common: the owners are all Moslems.
XIAN CITY WALL
When
Zhu Yuanzhang, the first Emperor of the
Ming dynasty (1368-1644), captured Huizhou,
a hermit named Zhu Sheng admonished him
that he should 'built high walls, store
abundant food supplies and take time to
be an Emperor,' so that he could fortify
the city and unify the other states.The
thriving trees and flowers decorate the
classical Chinese architecture of the wall,
adding additional beauty to the city of
Xian.A nice suggestion for tourists: Try
biking on the City Wall, you will have an
enjoyable and interesting experience.
