The Chang'an City where Tang New Energy and I are located is surrounded by a high wall.

As usual, Damei of the Tang Dynasty guarded the towers. Today, Damei and I are going to tell you about the wall in front of our home.

The Xi'an City Wall is the largest and best-preserved ancient city wall in China. City wall. It is one of the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units and a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction. The Xi'an City Wall in the broad sense includes the Xi'an Tang City Wall and the Xi'an Ming City Wall, but generally refers to the Xi'an Ming City Wall in the narrow sense. Xi'an Ming City Wall is located in the central area of ??Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. The wall is 12 meters high, 12-14 meters wide at the top, and 15-18 meters wide at the bottom. The outline is a closed rectangle with a circumference of 13.74 kilometers. People inside the city wall are accustomed to call it the ancient city area, covering an area of ??11.32 square kilometers. The famous Xi'an Bell and Drum Tower is located in the center of the ancient city area. There are four main gates in the Xi'an City Wall: Changle Gate (East Gate), Yongning Gate (South Gate), Anding Gate (West Gate), and Anyuan Gate (North Gate). These four gates are also the original gates of the ancient city wall. Since the Republic of China, many new gates have been built to facilitate access to the ancient city. So far, there are 18 gates in the Xi'an city wall. The existing city wall is a Ming Dynasty building with a total length of 13.7 kilometers. It was started in the third year of Hongwu (1370) and completed in the eleventh year of Hongwu (1378). Under the guidance of the policy of "King", it was built on the basis of the imperial cities of Sui and Tang Dynasties. It was the capital city of Xi'an at that time. Zhu Yuanzhang, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, canonized his second son Zhu Fang as the King of Qin. The vassal and government were in the same city, so the city was large and solid. In addition, it was repaired and added many times in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it is well preserved to this day.

Damei and I both love Xi'an. I love the people here, the architecture here, the cultural relics here, and the snacks here. And this city has given Damei perhaps the most powerful new energy facilitation policy in the country

Let me just say something here, the panda kitten is Huajuan dad, and Huajuan dad is panda kitten. As a rough guy from Liaoning who was born and raised in Xi'an and has never left Xi'an except for business trips and trips, the city wall also carries my stories and memories. My home is right at the base of the city wall. When I was a child, my house was only 20 meters away from the city wall. When I was young, I lived at my grandfather's house most of the time because my parents were busy with work. My parents would not pick me up to live at the base of the city wall until the holidays. In that era, we didn’t have board games or iPads, so we could only find various activities to fill our leisure time. One of the favorite activities for the little boy in the courtyard is to climb the city wall, quietly climb up and down the horse path for a while, and then boldly walk out of the ticket gate, as if he is so powerful. After thinking about it a few years later, I realized that it wasn't the old man who couldn't see that we hadn't bought a ticket, but the old man was kind and didn't want to expose us.

When we were children, we climbed up the city wall from this side

When we were children, the city wall was actually incomplete. There were several gaps and fences that divided the original circle of city wall into several sections. I don’t know what year it was when the city wall was finally completed. I remember clearly that the last section of the city wall that was completed was the railway station section. I even ran to see it. The city wall is an important regional division tool for old Xi'an. The real old Xi'an would not say that I am from Yanta District and that I am going to Weiyang District. They would only say that I am from the south of the city and want to go to the north of the city. At that time, there was also a division between inside and outside the city. People in the city seem to be more powerful haha.

Tang Damei is also a city car now

After becoming an adult, the number of times she goes to the city wall is getting less and less, almost two or three times a year, once to see the light show, and the rest to accompany her When friends from out of town went there, I didn’t even think of going to the city wall to take a look. By the way, the Xi'an City Wall Lighting Exhibition seems to have been around since I didn't exist (did I show my age?), and it is still held every year. The City Wall Lighting Exhibition also carries the New Year memories of my generation. Because of the epidemic, Xi'an, as a tourist city, has been greatly affected. However, the government has made orderly arrangements and reopened some scenic spots in an orderly manner at the appropriate time. Friends from all over the country, both at home and abroad, can make reservations on the designated website within the designated time and visit for free. Out of nowhere, I took out my phone and made an appointment for a city wall tour. Perhaps, this is the cry from the memory deep in the soul.

Driving Tang Damei, we went to the base of the city wall to find a parking space and parked. Because of the epidemic, only three city gates were open for entry and exit

The Chinese character Tang is a pride for Xi’an , because it represents one of the most glorious moments of the city

Today, I chose to enter the city from the south gate, and then find a place to pick up Damei. The beauty is so natural against the background of the city wall, ivy and red lights

Due to the epidemic, there are only three city gates: South Gate, East Gate, and North Gate for entry and exit, and my son The most frequently visited West Gate is temporarily closed. After thinking about it, I decided to enter the city from the south gate, because the south gate is where the Tang Dynasty-style entry ceremony was held. A dream of returning to Chang'an in the prosperous Tang Dynasty begins here.

Go through the underground passage

The south gate is opposite. On the main street of Xi'an, if you stand for a minute or two and don't pass a BYD, then you must have been deceived into a fake Xi'an. . .

I particularly like the publicity of Xi’an’s scenic spots in recent years. It has a Chinese flavor, historical beauty, and a kind of persistence and inheritance, just like BYD’s insistence on Chinese characters

I want to be a fan of BYD’s We are proud to insist on giving likes and Chinese characters

Due to the epidemic, there are really not many people

The full picture of the scenic spot, friends who want to come can take a look first and make a guide

I will meet it soon

Walking through the passage

The big red door with nine rows and nine columns of copper nails

I saw your face

Que Tower

Each gate in the city wall has three gate towers: Que Tower, Arrow Tower, and Main Tower. The que tower is outside, the arrow tower is in the middle, and the main tower is inside. Between the arrow tower and the main tower is the Wengcheng.

If Damei can’t come, Xiao Tang will come with me to take a look. Take a photo with it and the main building

The mythical beast sits on the tiles, listening to the wind chimes telling the story of the city for thousands of years

There is also a mottled big clock

The cultural and creative products produced in Xi’an in recent years are really hard to put down. So is Xiao Tang

Yu Linjun is also going to drive Tang

The electric patrol car is so cute, I wonder if it is byd inside

The official cultural and creative store, They can't be sold anywhere else (excluding Taobao flagship store)

I couldn't help but want to buy it, but after looking at my shriveled wallet, I couldn't bear it.

Zhuque Street Lamp

There are also many stores selling snacks. You can eat when you are tired from walking

Follow this road and you will arrive at Dayan Tower

While walking, I saw a building

It turned out to be Kuixing Tower

Kuixing Tower, also known as Kuixing Pavilion, was popular among Confucian scholars. It was built by the god Kuixing who controls the rise and fall of articles. Kuixing has the supreme status. This Kuixing holds a large brush in his right hand, which is called Zhubi, which means using the pen to call out the name of the candidate. He holds an ink fountain in his left hand. His right foot is independent of the golden rooster, and under his feet is stepping on the head of a big crocodile (a big turtle) in the sea. The head means "to dominate", and the left foot is raised and kicked in order to echo the big curved hook on the lower right side of the character "Kui" in shape. On the foot is the Big Dipper, as shown in the picture. In ancient times, there were Kuixing towers in various places. Scholars worshiped Kuixing in Kuixing tower and prayed to be listed in the imperial examination. Kuixing Tower has strong Chinese national style and local cultural characteristics, and is part of the splendid Chinese cultural heritage.

Dakui Tianxia--No.1 Scholar

After the facelift, Xiao Xiao Tang will be able to The No. 1 Scholar and No. 1

The painting of the lawnmower truck makes people feel so cute

Little Tang quietly comprehends history here

The noon sunshine, The shadows are scattered, and people or objects can see their own reflection

Little Tang, please use dilink to check where we are going. Hello, Xiaodi. . .

The floor tiles have the year and address of production, but this word is a bit weird

The tall buildings in the distance are already much higher than the city wall, and the top floors have also been built into towers. Appearance

The tower at the corner

There are many people flying kites in the park below

When the classical and modern collided, the Tang Dynasty was born. There is no sense of violation, everything is so natural

The current city wall no longer has any defensive function, but it does carry too many memories

Today’s exercise amount was exceeded< /p>

On one side is culture, on the other side is technology, just like my great beauty

Cultural and creative ice cream is also on sale, which is Xiaogui

Que in the East Gate Lou

I love this group of Yulin troops so much

Little Tang is here, looking at the scenery, wondering if he can feel what they are saying

Really I can’t walk anymore, come down and pick up Damei

The staff’s Qin pro’s dragon-faced look is really something I never tire of

Goodbye, solid city wall

Osmanthus Coke, this tastes very Xi'an

I couldn't walk, so I took a small blue car to pick up Damei. Low-carbon and environmentally friendly, the key is action

We are almost there, let’s turn on the air conditioner to cool down Damei

Daimei has been in the sun for a long time, and her feet are swollen

p>

Go home and quickly charge Damei. It is said that regular low-power charging is good for the battery, so I often use a portable 1.6kw charger. Although the batteries have a lifetime warranty

Look at the recent energy consumption, it really saves money

Every city has its own story. More, less, long time ago, or just happened. And this story, we call it history, we call it culture, it is a story that we need to pass on with our heart and let more people hear it. Get rid of the impetuousness of the world, experience it with your heart, and do things with your heart, so that you can leave a small piece of your own words in this story. I believe Damei has already done it. I am working hard to do it. What about you? The end, but not the ending......
