I come from Shanxi. I went to school in Xi 'an for the Spring Festival and wanted to bring some gifts to my family. I hope you can give me some advice.

Students go home to buy gifts for their families in the New Year, which is mainly reflected in family affection, new year's goods and filial piety. According to your situation, I think it is more appropriate to choose the following gifts:

1. Gift for Grandma: Go to the entrance of the Academy and buy a pair of Lantian jade bracelets. Lantian jade is one of the four famous jade with Shaanxi characteristics. The price is the cheapest among other jade. The price difference 10 yuan can buy one, and the good price is only tens of yuan. Lantian jade with good appearance should be green and white, with a certain sense of transparency, while the products with poor appearance are white and dull, and also have jet, depending on personal preference. Old women especially like jade bracelets. This gift is very characteristic of Shaanxi, suitable for the elderly and a good choice. Besides, besides this, you can buy some food. Gulou Huimin Street has Huang Gui persimmon cakes suitable for the elderly, as well as Mi Yuan Polygonum Candy (which melts in the mouth).

Second, gifts for others can be selected from the following:

1, pastry:

(1) crystal cake. Authentic crystal cake belongs to Xi 'an Demao Palace Food Store, which is an old brand in Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty, and several generations of talents have honed the most beautiful taste. Demaogong crystal cake looks very beautiful, with solid stuffing, small and exquisite, crisp skin, distinct layers, golden color and white surrounding. There is a saying: "The drums are covered with gold and silver, and the center is covered with red seal." It is said that at the end of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty, Eight-Nation Alliance captured Beijing, and Empress Dowager Cixi took refuge in xi 'an. She stopped at Guangji Street and tasted the crystal cake made by De Maogong, which was greatly appreciated, so she named it "Tribute". After that, Demao Palace was the icing on the cake, and its name and price doubled. Since 130, the people of Demao Palace have been doing business according to the meaning of the four words "Demao Palace", which has made Demao Palace more and more famous, and the reputation of Demao Palace crystal cakes is getting higher and higher.

Crystal cake is an authentic cake in Xi 'an, but modern people don't necessarily like it because it is too sweet. Buy less and try more.

(2) Mickey cake. Mickey started his business in Xi 'an, mainly the West Point Military Academy, and he is also famous in Xi 'an. Mickey cake is popular because of its obvious modern elements, high-grade taste, materials and packaging, and it is suitable for giving gifts. The taste also meets the needs of modern people.

(3) Pastry in Huimin Street of Gulou. Mainly sugar, preserved fruit, dried fruit, etc., dazzling, suitable for people of all tastes, but also the new year's goods for entertaining guests at the table, which is colorful.

2. Alcohol and tobacco:

Xifeng and Taibai are both famous wines and can be given away. Generally speaking, the products above 60 yuan are not bad. Its high-end series is too expensive, depending on personal economic situation.

The cigarettes of Monkey King series and Good Cat series are all Shaanxi famous cigarettes. If relatives and friends have preferences, they can choose. The lowest price of the Monkey King series is 30-35 yuan, which is very good. It is difficult to buy the whole book. Further up, each has 50- several hundred yuan. Good cat series is best not to choose blue good cat, around 180 yuan, which is not easy to smoke; Red cat is around 230, not bad, and can still take out his hand. There are still expensive ones on it, so I won't say it.

3. Others:

(1) beef and mutton breast. Huimin Street is famous for stopping the slope, which is also related to the refuge of the Western Empress Dowager in Shaanxi. It's best to choose preserved beef for this thing. First, preserved mutton is more expensive than preserved beef, but it may be a little smelly if you choose it badly. In addition, if you buy it directly from Huimin Street, you should eat it early, otherwise it will go bad easily. To keep it for a certain time, it is best to choose the one wrapped in tin foil.

② Huanggui strong wine. You'd better buy this at Xi 'an Restaurant. The tastes of other brands are not necessarily pure, so it is difficult to identify them.

(3) Qishan vinegar. Shanxi people love to be jealous. Once in Shanxi, a friend gave me Shanxi mature vinegar. Qishan vinegar is very famous in Shaanxi with a long history, but not necessarily in Shanxi. There are Shanxi vinegar in xi 'an streets and alleys. Might as well buy one or two bottles for comparison.

4. gifts that are not recommended.

(1) Shaanxi handicrafts are not needed. It is more appropriate to send between friends or between companies. But if you have a favorite gadget and the price is not expensive, you can also choose it appropriately.

(2) Jujube is also free. The famous jujube in Shaanxi is the beach jujube in northern Shaanxi, that is, the jujube around the beaches on both sides of the Yellow River, which is not lacking in Shanxi.

(3) The packaged food of mutton bread in soup. After eating this, the brand of Xi 'an mutton bread in soup was smashed. In addition, Xi 'an Laosun's mutton bread in soup is really famous now, but it's not true. You have to go to Huimin Square to eat it.
