The planet is littered with attractions and events which promise so much yet invariably disappoint,banished from memory.....this is a very rare exception.
A performance that was beyond exhilarating,one which I doubt I’ll see the likes of again.

Beyond EPIC!
Aug 2019 • Couples
This was my 3rd time seeing this spectacle - which is the only word that half describes its epicness! I brought my Mum back 1 year ago when she visited China & my boyfriend last night on a weekend away from Beijing. They were both blown away by the scale & grandeur of it, as was I even at my 3rd viewing. Its a massive one of a kind production - hands down the best live event Ive ever experienced & I work in theatre!! The story is so touching & its beautifully portrayed, while the technical elements of the show simply stun you from beginning to end! An absolute MUST see!!

Wow in a good way
Jul 2019 • Business
The show is performed in the location where the story is about which makes this authentic. The dance and light performance are in variety which gives u a couple of wow moments. The director is a master in leveraging the natural landscape, authentic location and even animals to create the visual impacts. Strongly recommended.

Very impressive & spectacular performance
Jun 2019 • Business
Awesomely beautiful customs, dancing by the performers, Chinese classical music, insightful cultural content, stage lighting effects, and more. The Tang dynasty story of an emperor and his favourite concubine was nice, although I don’t have the expertise to understand it fully.

This is by far superior !!! Must see
Jun 2019 • Family
A love story between Yáng Guifei, one of four beauties in ancient China, and Emperor/her father-in-law.
It was amazing!!!!
If you have a guide or driver, it is best to have them to purchase for you. You pay the same money without hassle.
I purchased tickets before I came to Xian from a third party tour website and they forgot to complete the order. I had to spent 30-40 minutes waiting and being on the phone to fix the problem.
Our guide Mr Michael Yin (daqunyin@qq.com) was really helpful. Highly recommend him and this show.
Pictures don’t do it justice.

Excellent show!
Jun 2019 • Family
This was my second time watching the show but I was still enthralled by the superb sets and excellent choreography. My family was watching it for the first time and needless to say, they were wowed by it. Peter from Huaqing Palace helped us buy the tickets beforehand and made the arrangements for us to collect them at the Tourist Centre all in good time. A big thumbs up!!!

Stunning
May 2019 • Solo
The Terra cotta Warriors are great to see and get all of the attention, but this show is a must-see extravaganza. It is beautiful story of love and loss told by a huge cast in stunning colors with expert use of technology that only enhances the story. The set is so big that they managed to use the mountain behind it. It has a scale unlike anything I’ve seen. If you’re going to the warriors, see it in the afternoon, grab dinner and then this show. You will not regret it.

Impressive show and food
Apr 2019 • Couples
We have been to quite a few of similar shows in China and this one was amongst the best. I do not want to say much about the content but to leave it to you to enjoy. I am sure everyone will find it impressive. The venue is quite a distance from the city centre but it is worth the time. By the way, it is on the same direction as the Terracotta Warriors and Hua Shan so you can do at least two things on the same day. Apart from the show, the Court Banquet Dinner is also highly recommended. Delicious fine dining type dishes with beautiful garnish were offered. Service was excellent. Even though we have dined in most of the highly recommended restaurants in Xian, we found this dinner most enjoyable. One easy way to enjoy the show and the dinner is to join the Viator tour.

Apr 2019 • Family
Was an amazing performance. Expected it to be good but i didn’t expect it to be that level. This is another level. Everyone who’s planning to go to xian should definitely go to the show. and do get the best seats. I got my tickets from peter, by emailing to the official website.
