By Daniel Li on his escorted
group tour of Xian and more
Daniel Li,
I am writing to you to thank you very much for our wonderful trip to Xian. The tour that you organised was fantastic. Sorry for the delay in feedback. I thank you for all your prompt and quick replies to our needs and desires for the tour that we took on Feb 10, 2008. You are very professional and provided what we had requested. I enjoyed my tour of Xian - from start to finish. It was most comforting to have my tour guide meet me at the airport. Your tour guide - Ms Mary Ma is exceptional in both her English and her knowledge of her subject. She is to be congratulated.
I have no hesitation in recommending your company to other travellers.
Thank you once again.
Kind regards

Xi'an Tang Dynasty Dinner Show


Tang Dynasty Dinner Show is a performance of music and dance that was originated in the Tang Dynasty more than one thousand-year ago. Tang Dynasty (618-907AD) was the climax of China's development in music and dance. The performance has been recreated according to the poise of the dancers on the murals as well as ancient art and relics discovered in Xi'an.

It is a combination of food and entertainment that showcases the costumes, music and dancing of China's Golden age: the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The food is delicious including Xi'an dumplings, black mushroom consommé, prawns with honey glazed walnuts, beef tenderloin, fried rice, and jasmine tea. The show is splendid, classical, elegant, and romantic, embodied he glory and flourish of Tang Dynasty.

The performances are various, including

Act 1. Long live the Emperor. This act is an instrumental ensemble showing the grand welcome of officials when the emperor comes to the court. Traditional Chinese musical instruments such as the drum, urheen, and Qin make the performance magnificent and exquisite.

Act 2. The white Ramie Clothe Costume Dance. The white ramie was very popular in the Tang Dynasty which was invented in Qin Dynasty (221-206BC). Dancers wear the ramie clothe with sleeves just like fairy fly over the sky, which make the dance elegantly and beautifully.

Act 3. Da Nuo Dance. This dance is a kind of sorcerer's dance that can be traced back to Zhou Dynasty. At that time, every year people danced to pray for better fortune, harvest and safety from diseases during New Year's Eve.

Xi'an Tang Dynasty Dinner ShowAct 4. Dance of Rainbow Skirt and Feather Garments. It is said that this act is created as per a dream of Xuanzong. He dreamed of a trip to the moon and saw many fairies dancing with multicoloured costumes. When he woke up, he wrote down the fairy's dance and recreated the dance with his concubine, Yang Guife. This is the most famous dance during Tang Dynasty.

Act 5. King Qin Break the Battle Array. King Qin refers to Li Shimin, the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He is respected for his great talent and bold vision. The dance was used to praise King Qin's achievements and excite the soldiers.

Act 6. The Spring Oriole's Singing. This performance was used to celebrate the enthronement of the emperor played by Pai Xiao Solo, a kind of Chinese traditional instrument.

Act 7. Dance to song. Xuan Zong and his wife Yang Guifei lead their officers to pray for blessings to their people. Meanwhile, many beautiful women in Tang dresses step on the palace to show the Chinese fashion. The whole performance ends in songs and under skyrocks.

Enjoying wonderful performance over enjoying your delicious dinner, it seems as if you have lived in the palace of Tang Dynasty. It is really a must-see performance.
