The show was brilliant and it was very well arranged by the operator. A lovely car picked us up at the hotel and transported us to the theatre. Picking up the tickets was easy and the show itself was absolutely fantastic.

Theatre show with traditional dress from the Tang Dynasty. Excellent depiction of Empress Wu rise to power. Excellent service and dinner
Absolutely incredible show!!! The most majestic stage, musicians, dancers and performers. Food was ok but the show was something special, and I’ve been to many shows in China and around the world. Highly recommend.
This show is absolutely spectacular! I did not have it on my itinerary when I went to Xi'an and didn't think much about it. I usually like nature and temples, so I didn't schedule it. I happened to ask my guide when I would get back from the tour and saw how inexpensive the show was, and I thought it may make a nice evening activity with a glass of wine. YES! I am so glad I went! The dancing, the costumes, the music is absolutely breathtaking and such an incredible tribute to the Tang Dynasty's most famous female empress! The theater itself is very beautiful, modern with classic Chinese designs. The show uses impressive dancing and stunts, and there are also digital components, narration, and live music at parts to accompany its powerful story. I went by myself, but a lot of tour companies stopped there. I was happy to sit in the back in the center with an unobstructed view away from phones or any sort of people talking. I don't like being around people in theaterical experiences in general, not just here. The staff were super sweet and offered me a closer seat, but I loved being in the back alone. You could see everything and there are even parts where the performers come in the aisles, so I got to see them up close. You can also arrange to have dinner there if you want. They have an awesome selection and serve in costume. I just had a glass of white wine which was wonderful, so even if you aren't feeling up to the dumpling dinner or a big meal, you can get a snack or a drink prior to the show. Be sure to get there about a half an hour early to check in and get settled. You can also take a picture with the actors if you want at the end. They do have an English translation on a side screen during the show so you can understand what is going on even not knowing Mandarin. I loved hearing the story spoken in Mandarin though. Overall, I LOVED it. I did not even plan on seeing and went on a chance. It is spectacular and a great way to close out your day after seeing the Terracotta Warriors or tour. I believe they have two shows a night, and I went to the 8pm which was well after my day tour. Stunning and such a beautiful surprise in Xi'an. I definitely recommend putting this terrific theatrical performance in your game plan.
This experience was a stand out on our China trip While we had our dumplings the traditional Chinese orchestra played The show was so professional with beautiful costumes
I loved this show. It was extremely professional and so colourful with lots of costume changes. The dancing was excellent and I’m sure all the cast were ballet trained. It was easy to follow the story as it came up on a screen in English at the side. The back drops were fantastic. We only saw the show ( no dumplings etc) and found the venue very easy to get to. The manager was very welcoming and even gave us a small gift. It’s really worth seeing, don’t miss out.
Varied, delicious and filling dinner, beautiful theatre, live music, amazing show combining state the of art technology, stunning displays and incredible perfomance with beautiful music. As a bonus you can get to take a photo with the main actors/actresses which we did. Loved every minute of this experience.
The show was breathtaking, through five acts it showcased the beauty and splendor of the Tang dynasty, the talented actors and dancers, combined with the lights and music really came together to sew a beautifully intricate picture of colors and sounds. Truly a feast for the senses!
Wow! Great production, elaborate costumes. So impressed! It was one of the best show I have seen. For those who do not understand Chinese, there is a screen with English explanation. Met Corson and Han - very accommodating! You have to try the white bean pastry shop outside main theater. Thank you for this amazing experience.
The show was amazing, entertaining and simply breathtakingly beautiful. I booked with trip and they even gave me an adorable stuffed panda and a free taxi ride back to my hotel. They were very hospitable and friendly The dumplings were nice too.
Great show, we had a very pleasant evening with the nice dinner & awesome Tang Dynasty show. Our Xi'an China Travel Service english speaking host was very kind to drop us back to our hotel after the show.
Corsen took us at our hotel, and someone called a didi for us to return there. The dinner is nice, with some local food and nice dumplings. The show was amazing. We appreciated a lot to discover this history as we never heard about before. It was very interesting for us. We want to learn more about the Tang dynasty now!
A beautiful dance and music show. The sets and stagings are beautiful. The dinner of ravioli was tasty, even too hearty for us, it kept serving 😅 Thank you for the attention paid to our 7 year old daughter, she is too happy with her new soft toy.
I have a very good memory of this experience. The show was excellent and we had a plush offered on top of that.
El espectáculo, puesta en escena, música y vestuario me encantaron. La calidad de la comida no era muy buena y es una pena que dejen que la gente grave y tome fotos durante toda la actuación, a menudo interferia en la visibilidad y no me permitía disfrutar del espectáculo. El personal fue muy amable, me dieron un detalle de bienvenida y me reservaron y pagaron el taxi de regreso al hotel.
Beautiful and historic show. The ravioli buffet is a must and adds a real plus to the experience. Thank you to Mr Han for his welcome. We were also able to leave with a photo with the dancers. An enchanting moment that we are not about to forget!
it was simply: INCROYABLE. I would definitely recommend this show if you go to Xi’an. It was beautiful!
