    "Today is a day trip on the East Line of Xi'an. I came to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, Qinling Mausoleum, and Huaqing Palace before the peak tourist season. I didn’t have much confidence in the tour group that I accidentally turned over on Trip.com. I finally found that it was worth the money, because the clock tower used to last for a long time. Did not eat breakfast, Hu Yubo tour guide intimately recommended affordable breakfast, good quality and cheap, praise. The whole tour process, with Hu tour guide's explanation, is apt and vivid, from beginning to end immersed in it. From the explanation of Hu tour guide, it can be seen that the professional ability is strong, the empathy is good, the truth is truth, the full day, thank you for meeting."

    "Although only the tiles were displayed, it opened my different insights into calligraphy and made me re-understand the historical significance of inscriptions. Part of the study of history is a simple book, part of the books written by previous people, and part of the inscriptions. In addition to inscriptions on low, they can be inscribed anywhere, on the clock, on the stone statue. Inscriptions have studied different meanings in different places. The reason for being listed as a national cultural relics is that the text on the inscription confirms the historical facts, which is historical evidence. We went to see the inscription alone. We didn't know anything. We saw it, but with the explanation, we could really achieve meaningful gains. On the fourth day of my trip to Xi'an, there were not many interpreters and there were not many. The things explained were indeed uneven. Some of the presenters spoke very quickly and very little, as if to deal with the task. Some interpreters are really good, I am very willing to talk more about it, I really like this experience, this time I chose the scenic boutique speech, I recommend everyone to choose him, this time for an hour, but told us an hour and a half. Everyone should also pay attention to the narrator on the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. It makes me experience very bad. I feel that I am a salesman. If I talk about a little history, I will talk about some Lantianyu selling goods and some performances selling tickets! It seems that I spend money to listen to advertisements. The more famous attractions, the more serious the slaughter phenomenon! Since it is an explanation service, you should talk about things related to the attractions. Don't talk about these, the narrator of the inscription museum is really good, everyone who comes to a place to encounter an unpleasant thing, don't be partial, there is still a good"
