Xianyang, the Old Capital of Daqin

Xianyang, a prefecture-level city in Shaanxi Province, is the capital of the first feudal dynasty "Qin Empire" in China. It is located in the hinterland of Qinchuan, Shaanxi Province, with Weihe River in the south and Lushan Mountain in the north, so it is called Xianyang. But now when it comes to Xianyang, everyone knows that it is the old capital of Qin, but few people know that it is a city in Shaanxi.

Twenty-eight Han and Tang Tombs, including the Changling Mausoleum of Emperor Gaozu, the Yangling Mausoleum of Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, the Maoling Mausoleum of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, the Zhaoling Mausoleum of Emperor Taizong, Tang Gaozong and the Zhaoling Mausoleum of Wu Zetian, were buried together for hundreds of miles.

I have lived in Xianyang for almost twenty years. Although I haven't been out much, I have been to all the places I should go. I recommend some places suitable for you to visit Xianyang. The "Gudu Covered Bridge" crossed the alley and stepped into the river bank road. It didn't take long to reach the bank of Weihe River. Walking on the covered bridge, I watched rows of weeping willows standing on the bank below, with soft and slender branches swaying in the wind. Xianyang Gudu, also known as Weiyangdu. As far away as Shang Dynasty, this is the transportation hub connecting China, the west and the south to Bashu, and it is the first intersection of the ancient Silk Road. A leaf boat, a bamboo raft and passers-by in twos and threes are its original features. When you walk into the Gudu Covered Bridge, the first thing you see is the four vigorous characters of "Gudu Covered Bridge". On both sides of the gate, the curtains of "Qin Feng enjoys the Wei River, Jiang Yue visits" and "The wind is drunk and the rain ends in the south, and the clouds cross the ancient sails" are harmonious and magnificent, and their heavy and vigorous calligraphy is pleasing to the eye. Standing on the covered bridge, looking up at the sky, white clouds rolled across the ancient crossing and floated across the Daqin and Han Dynasties; Overlooking the water, Gudu's sailboat slowly sailed through the Weihe River and was drunk to the south, a beautiful ancient capital. Two stone kylins crouched at the bridge. On both sides of the 100-meter-long approach bridge stand 20 bronze statues of Qin Dynasty figures, such as Zhang Yi, Shang Yang and Gan Luo, as if they had made great efforts to create brilliant chapters during their lifetime, and they were alive and kicking, thinking about the past vividly on the paper.

Once when I was reading a blog, I was deeply impressed by an article that said, "Xianyang Ancient Road is silent." In fact,

The article begins with Li Bai's Qin Yi E, perhaps because people who go to Xianyang pay more attention to humanities, so the first sentence is quite attractive.

It reads: When the heat and noise of the day gradually receded, I gently opened the window and saw that the night was water and the moonlight was practice. The Weihe River in the distance winds in the vast Guanzhong Plain, whispering softly to my ear.
