When visiting the city of Xi'an, there is a tendency to get wrapped up in the array of cultural landmarks and hotspots to be seen at any given time. However, if you were to explore beyond the city's borders, you will find some of the most stunning landscapes in the nation.
Found in a national geopark that stretches for close to 32 square kilometres, the Cuihua Mountain is one of the best viewing points to take in the lush landscapes surrounding you. Given the vast biodiversity at the park, the landscape can be split into three main sections. This is namely, the recreation zone, an ecological zone as well as a forest zone. This is brilliant for eager travellers. With a bit of research, you can easily curate your experience for optimum results.
Suppose you stay at any hotels in Xi An China, such as the Grand Park Xian. In that case, the best thing to do is coordinate with them to get in touch with any nearby tour guides or sightseeing groups.
With plenty of ancient trade routes to walk, peaks to climb, and boat rides to enjoy, there is plenty of excitement to go around.
This majestic palace is found at the foot of Mount Li, where it had been a significant bathing site for close to 3000 years. With a long history, this building and much of what you see today can be dated back to the Tang Dynasty in 723.
With the palace complex consisting of a variety of imperial bathing pools along with palace quarters, the overall establishment is surrounded by cedar trees. Suppose you were to entire the exhibit hall. In that case, you will be able to sit back and enjoy a daily performance of dances as well as a traditional tea ceremony.
In the vicinity of Xi'an lies a chain of peaks that seem to stretch for miles. These mountains are typically considered a part of the religious folklore of the region with Mount Huashan being considered one of the most sacred peaks in Taoism, Buddhism, and Chinese history in general.
Paying a visit to the mountain will work the time and effort to give the mind-boggling views that lie in wait. With vast mountains reaching the sky, there are plenty of viewpoints to marvel at the surrounding landscape; however, be warned, the journey there may be a bit difficult.
On your visit to this Qin Dynasty site, the park that now resides there is home to various walking trails, boat rides, and stunning views. You can also enjoy the Shaanxi opera that takes place along with other multiple entertainments.
Set up at an altitude of 1302 metres, the park offers a stunning view of the surrounding landscapes. Taking a cable car up to the mountains before either walking or taking a horse the rest of the way is the best way to enjoy the journey.
