Hua means brilliant, Chinese or flowery; qing means pure or clear. It is a famous imperial bathing pool and one of China's Hundred Famous Gardens. In Tang Dynasty, emperors would come to Huaqing Palace with their concubines. The Emperor Xuanzong used to spend his wintertimes at Huaqing Palace in the company of his favorite concubine Yang. “Song of the everlasting sorrow” musical performance is a love story of Concubine Yang Guifei and emperor Xuanzong (Tang Dynasty). She is known as one of the Four Beauties of ancient China. Even though she was the wife of the emperor’s son, the emperor was attracted with her beauty, and eventually, he made her his imperial consort. Yang enjoyed a luxurious life after becoming the consort of Emperor Xuanzong. However, she soon became the victim of courtly intrigue, which ultimately led to her death. But the legendary story of her romance with the Emperor would last forever. She was so beautiful that we can feel it even just looking at her statue😍 The performance was so realistic, that I felt their love and sorrow. I had a feeling like they’re shooting an ancient movie and I’m part of it. It was so incredible and it’s worth watching it. I really liked it. If you go to Terra-cotta on the way back you need to see this fascinating place and the performance. #xian #Huaqing #summerpalace #naturelover #nature #Concubine #emperor #lovestory
