Let’s take a closer look at the copycat scenic spots around Xi’an. They are both vulgar and unsightly. Don’t step on these tourist traps.

People often say: China will look at Shenzhen in twenty years, Shanghai will look at China in one hundred years, Beijing will look at China in one thousand years, and Xi'an will look at China in five thousand years. In history, 13 dynasties have established their capitals in Xi'an, making it the birthplace of ancient Chinese civilization in the East. Over the years, the ancient capital of Xi'an has also become the most popular travel destination for domestic tourists. It is undeniable that Xi'an, a city with great historical and cultural heritage, does have many historical relics to visit, but there are also too many historical sites around Xi'an. Most of the copycat scenic spots of historical sites are purely artificial, which are both vulgar and unsightly. Have you been fooled by these tourist traps?

First of all, I have to say the Qin Mausoleum Underground Palace. This is a completely man-made scenic spot simulated artificially. It has nothing to do with the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum Underground Palace. There are neither cultural relics nor cultural and historical materials here. It is full of various This kind of crude wax figure is completely at the level of a small workshop. What is ridiculous is that the wax figures have been "beautified". They have double eyelids and red lips, which is called spicy eyes. The most important thing is that the tour guide inside will say " "Story" will explain to tourists the over-interpreted fake history. The underground palace of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum has not been developed yet. Don't you know?

Then in Lintong, a new set of tourist guides has been published in recent years, saying that there are three places in Lintong that are most worth seeing, the Terracotta Warriors of Qin, the Hongmen Banquet of the Han Dynasty, and the Huaqing Pool of the Tang Dynasty. This so-called Hongmen Banquet ruins scenic spot, It is completely a fake scenic spot put together temporarily by raising funds from the local area. It is only for out-of-town tourists to visit. The locals will not go there at all. The actors performing in the scenic spot are probably local people. Their lines are completely lip-synched, and the whole process is awkward. The performance, and at the end, there is someone who grabs the lucky bag to unlock the fortune. Anyway, everyone knows this routine.

Then there is also the so-called Eight Wonders of the World Museum in Lintong. It is more of a wonder than a miracle. It is similar to the Qinling Underground Palace and the Hongmen Banquet Site. This place often does not appear in Xi'an. However, under the deception of local shady car drivers and shady tour guides, foreign tourists will inevitably be fooled. In fact, many times, it is just a waste of money when traveling. The most important thing is that these copycat attractions also delay your precious travel time. .

The last one is probably the Qianling Underground Palace. Everyone knows that among the tombs of ancient Chinese emperors, apart from the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, the only one that has not yet been developed is probably Wu Zetian’s Qianling Mausoleum. Someone just developed an attraction called Qianling Underground Palace. These copycat attractions cannot even guarantee the minimum authenticity. How can we talk about the value of cultural relics and historical value? At best, it can only be regarded as a place designed to trap foreign tourists.

For thousands of years, the land of Sanqin has left us countless precious historical and cultural relics. The terracotta warriors and horses, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the ancient city walls have all left a good impression on countless Chinese and foreign tourists, but the surrounding areas of Xi'an These copycat scenic spots are able to deceive tourists from outside the country. What is most worth pondering is that these scenic spots are also national 3A scenic spots. Is this a problem with the management level or a lagging concept? No matter how popular a tourist city is, it cannot withstand such "ruin". These shoddy copycat scenic spots can at best be a bad travel experience for tourists, but for a city, what is ruined? ?
