The City of Tang Dynasty

A nighttime tour of Tang City amazed me at the grandeur of this man-made film and television city. There were many performances, and the scale was quite impressive, but why didn't it feel truly breathtaking? I offer the following analysis: 1. The actors weren't particularly dedicated. Their expressions were dull, their movements were unfocused, and even when they approached the audience, they weren't enthusiastic. The group performances weren't cohesive. Perhaps they were tired from performing multiple shows daily and didn't really enjoy the job. 2. The scriptwriting wasn't professional enough. Three large-scale performances, recommended by netizens as highly worth seeing—Mingde's Victory Song, Suzaku's Display of National Prestige, and Fireworks at Hu Yulou—had no plot at all. They also lacked any relevant content; they were simply light and music shows. If I could offer a suggestion, I'd definitely design them according to a timeline. The first could depict the Tang Dynasty facing war, with assassins attacking the city and warriors rushing to the rescue. The second could see soldiers defending their country, a general returning victorious, and meeting a beautiful woman. The third could feature a beautiful scene of the flourishing Tang Dynasty, with fireworks and water curtains celebrating its splendor. Adding excellent lighting and sound effects would have been even better. 3. There were so many programs, and the venue design was a mess. It was difficult to run around. Overall, the ticket price was worth it, and the schedule was very fulfilling. The venue was beautiful, with many photo-worthy spots, and it was a very pleasant experience.

We recommend visiting in the afternoon. During the day, you can explore Tang City, following the route from Zhuque Gate to Mingde Gate, then East and West Markets, then Xingqing Palace, and finally East Market Restaurant. You can also rent Hanfu costumes for photos and enjoy performances. In the evening, experience a night tour of Tang City, enjoying light shows and Flying Apsaras dance performances. Recommended photo spots include the square in front of Guangde Temple and the East Market Bridge.

There are different options for visiting Xiangyang. For example, the middle-aged and elderly like to go to Gulongzhong, and the young like to go to Fantasy Valley. But no matter men, women, young or old, you must not miss Tang City, especially the evening show. Different ages have different ways of playing. You can dress up in ancient costumes and take photos, watch shows and fireworks, and the little ones also have many food choices. There are chairs everywhere to rest when you are tired. It is recommended not to choose to come on rainy days. Some programs will be cancelled on rainy days, and the cancelled programs are often the most exciting programs.

Tang City is very large, and the buildings look rough during the day, but the night view is very beautiful, and there are many performances at night. There are many Hanfu shops in Tang City, and the Hanfu is also very exquisite. I think it is better than other attractions. The disadvantage is that there are no distinctive souvenirs, all of which are common goods.

[Scenery] Xiangyang Tang City, where the filming of Legend of the Demon Cat took place, although it was newly built later, it also cost billions of dollars, and the building is majestic and magnificent. [Fun] Tang City will be free of charge for people across the country on December 31, 2020. Tickets need to be booked online in advance. Tickets are divided into daytime and nighttime. You have to leave the daytime at 4 pm. You need to swipe your ticket to leave. If you exceed the time, you will have to pay 40 yuan. The nighttime entrance is 4:30, and all performances are in the nighttime. There are Hanfu rentals at the door. When you dress up with makeup and headdresses, you will feel like you are traveling through time. [Cost-effectiveness] A must-go place in Xiangyang. It is still worth going this year without tickets. What I complained about is the parking lot at the entrance of the scenic spot. The fee is a bit high, and it increases by time. There was no parking fee invoice when I went out. All scenic spots in Wuhan are six yuan for one day.

Finally updated... My trip to Tang City in Xiangyang with my mom I went to Xiangyang during the Mid-Autumn Festival, yes, Mid-Autumn Festival... Sorry, I'm really too lazy😳 Because I watched "Cat Demon Legend", the movie scenes are magnificent and ancient, and I also admit that the color is well edited. Knowing that the scene was filmed in Hubei, I was yearning! I took two days to travel alone with my mother. I set off from Wuhan at noon on the first day and took a two-hour train to Xiangyang. I immediately took a taxi to check in, changed my clothes and went to Tang City😍 Xiangyang is not big, and taxis are quite cheap, so I mostly used taxis for travel. After passing Xijiachi, I arrived at Tang City~ The surroundings are a bit desolate 🙂 📌Tang City is divided into daily and night sessions. The daytime ticket is 72 RMB, and the night ticket is 100 RMB. I bought it on the spot. If you buy tickets online, you must buy them in advance, otherwise you can't buy the same-day tickets! ! ! ! I heard that the performance is very good, but there can only be so many people performing every day, and the tickets later were increased to the point that I didn't buy them🤷 It's speechless 📌It is recommended to buy tickets for the night show, from 17:30 to 22:30, and the earliest entry is 5:30~ just right to take photos of tourists during the day and see Tang City at night, the best value for money~ You must buy the night show! ! There are many performances in the night show that you can't see during the day~ If you buy a day ticket, it will automatically expire at 5 o'clock. You need to pay more if you go out after the time! 📌Tang City is not big, and it won't take a long time to walk around. Fortunately, my mother and I love taking pictures, so we kept taking pictures~ My mother's photography skills amazed me~✌😝😍 📌There are Hanfu Tang suits for rent and hairdressing at the door, but I didn't go~ But I heard that the price of renting clothes is more than 100 or 200 yuan, which feels quite expensive~ You can buy it on Taobao~ 📌There is a place to store luggage at the door, 2 yuan per hour~ 📌Bring Hanfu and photography equipment, you need to pay an extra 200 yuan to enter the park. . . It is recommended to wear Hanfu and say that you are a tourist, so you don’t have to pay🤷 Follow the WeChat account "Xiangyang Tangcheng" to update the program list, so you can know what the upcoming program is and where it is at the first time~ At that time, I didn’t know, so I could only ask the security guard with my mother😂 China Tangcheng

Everyone should remember that for night show tickets, some attractions cannot be entered after 5:00. So it is recommended to buy day show tickets, scan the QR code at the scenic spot, and pay the difference for the night show. The difference is 40, and the day show plus the night show is 120 in total. In this way, you can visit Tang City completely. The night show performances in Tang City are still very shocking, especially the Suzaku Gate Incident.

Every time I want to travel in Xiangyang, I am used to going to other places. Tangcheng has not been built in this area for several years, and I always feel nothing new. At the end of this Spring Festival holiday, I just wanted to go for a walk exercise. I was shocked when I came in. The scenery inside is very lifelike, and the wind and sunny weather make it really cool!
