Xi'an is an ancient capital of China which had been known as Chang' An city. The land is preserving immense amount of cultural relics and historical places. One of them is Daming Place National Heritage Park or Daming Gong 大明宫. The place served as recreation Palace for the most famous Chinese Empress Wuza Tian. Yeah, we can only imagine how could Her Highness have a fun in her own Palace, whatever, it was truly impressive and unusual even for that time. The area of park is divided for two parts, one of them is for free, but another requires admission ticket. It was interesting to have a chance to take a look at ruins of such place, which includes underground section for visitors.

Me and my curious wife spent there half of the day. #themepark#culturalattractions#bestislandtraveltowns#museumquest#beautifulsunsets#themeparks#historicculture

What do you think of when you see such a large palace complex? Forbidden City? No, this is the Tang Daming Palace, the political center of the Tang Dynasty, which was four times larger in history than the Forbidden City, three times larger than Versailles and 12 times larger than the Kremlin. It is a pity that Daming Palace has long been ruined by war. The millennium has also blown away his glory and history. The magnificent building complex you see today is just a restored model.

Daming Palace National Heritage Park is located in Longshouyuan, north of Xi'an. It was built on the site of the Tang Dynasty's Daming Palace and is said to be several times larger than the Forbidden City in Beijing. Upon arriving at Daming Palace Square, the first thing you will see is Danfeng Gate. Danfeng Tower is built on top of Danfeng Gate and was an important venue for grand ceremonies such as coronations, renaming eras, banquets, and amnesties. Passing through Danfeng Gate, you will walk along the long imperial road and the vast imperial road square to reach the ruins of Hanyuan Hall. Hanyuan Hall was the main hall of the Tang Dynasty's Daming Palace and was where the Tang emperors held morning court and grand ceremonies. Although it was once buried in the countryside, the column bases remain largely intact, giving an idea of the structure and grandeur of Hanyuan Hall in its heyday. Behind Hanyuan Hall is the Daming Palace Heritage Museum, which is partially underground. The museum displays many Tang Dynasty artifacts, such as chiwen (roof ridge ornaments), wadang (roof tiles), and pottery figurines, and uses digital technology to recreate the overall layout and architectural features of Daming Palace. To the right of the museum is a miniature model of Daming Palace, which faithfully reproduces the entire palace complex at its peak at a scale of 1:15. Walking through it feels like traveling back in time to the Tang Dynasty. In addition, there are many palace ruins around Hanyuan Hall and the museum, such as Xuanzheng Hall, which was the central court of the ancient three-court system and held a prestigious position. Further north is Zichen Hall, the main office of the emperor, known as the main hall of the inner court, as well as Wangxian Terrace, Yanying Hall, and more. There are many ruins in the northern part of Daming Palace National Heritage Park, such as Taiye Pond, Xuanwu Gate, and Sanqing Hall, but they are far apart. It takes at least a whole day to visit them all, and it is very tiring. "The palace gates open to the heavens, and people from all over the world bow to the emperor." Looking back at the history of the Tang Empire at the Daming Palace ruins evokes a complex feeling. It was grand, magnificent, majestic, and confident, but ultimately, it faded into obscurity, leaving behind endless thoughts for future generations.

In Xi'an, the ancient capital of 13 dynasties, there is a historical secret place that transcends time and space - Daming Palace National Heritage Park. It stands quietly, silently telling the story of the past. Stepping into this land, you will find yourself standing on the foundation of the royal palace from thousands of years ago, surrounded by the illusion of palace maids and courtiers passing by. The Hanyuan Hall, Xuanzheng Hall, and Zichen Hall, though only the foundations remain, are still magnificent. The bricks and stones hide the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty, and the eaves and tiles echo the whispers of the court. The water of the Taiye Pool, which once reflected the faces of palace maids, also reflects the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. In spring, the ancient halls are surrounded by flowers; in summer, the rain beats on the years; in autumn, the ginkgo trees are covered with gold; in winter, the frost and snow add a touch of solemnity. This is not only a relic but also a living history book, preserving the dreams of the past. Are you curious about the Tang Dynasty? Come to Daming Palace National Heritage Park and unlock the secrets of the past.

In terms of environment, the park cleverly combines ancient architecture with modern gardens, retaining the weight of history while adding natural beauty.

#chinatrip The heritage park is based on the ancient palace in Tang dynasty. The field is quite huge and divided into two different areas. Tourists must buy tickets to see Daming palace heritage and visit the museum inside. The charge location is about the centra of the park. The other area outside the Daming palace heritage is free, people can do all kinds of activities over there. It took me about fifteen to twenty minutes to walke from Xi’an train station to here. Then I spent half day to search the park. Obviously, I didn’t have enough time for visiting the whole spot. So prepare your energy and time to explore here.

The clouds have dispersed and the rain has ceased, the sky of Xi'an no longer leaks raindrops ☔️. Stepping outside for a breath of fresh air, the stifled heart finally ceases to feel oppressed 🦠. Visiting the Daming Palace, the negative ions are particularly abundant at this moment 🌱. The Daming Palace National Heritage Park, located within the second ring of Xi'an city, not only offers convenient parking but is also directly accessible by subway 🚇. This place not only boasts enchanting pink maiden grass but also a miniature model of the Daming Palace. In fact, many people are unaware that this is also a hidden gem for urban camping ⛺️. Simply bring along a canopy, an aluminum roll table, and a moon chair. Set them up on the park's lawn, and the camping atmosphere is instantly created. Listen to the birds chirping, breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy some tea and fruits 🍇. Surrounded by lush green trees and standing on a thousand years of history, this is a unique weekend getaway for the people of Xi'an. 📍: Daming Palace National Heritage Park 🚇: Daming Palace Station, Subway Line 4
