8、f northwest China. It sits on an ancient site and there are layers of cities of different names beneath and around the city. The land is fertile, renewed yearly by the silt from the Yellow River. Since the age of the nomads, people have settled in this rich land to take advantage of the relatively f

9、lat landscape, plentiful water, and ease of travel.As one of the ancient capitals of China, it served 12 imperial dynasties for over a thousand years. Today, Xian is a treasure house of historical relics and cultural heritage.Xian was called Changan in the Han Dynasty, which literally means a place

10、of permanent peace. The city was renamed Xian in 1369. From the 11 century B.C. onwards, Xian was the capital city of 11 successive dynasties, including the Western Zhou, the Qin, the Han, the Sui and the Tang dynasties; in addition Xian had also served as the capital of two peasant regimes, under t

11、he rule of Huang Chao and Li Zicheng. The citys capital status lasted for 1,608 years.Indeed, Xian has made an unparalleled contribution to the history and culture of China. For more than a millennium, it was the stage on which the histories of more than a dozen Chinese dynasties unfolded. Every mov

12、e and every action originating from Xian had a far-reaching influence on the course of Chinas social development.It is where, three thousand years ago, the aristocrats of the Zhou dynasty instituted rites and composed music, while offering libations to gods and ancestors and feasting themselves out

13、of bronze utensils. It is where, two thousand years ago, the Qin army eliminated six rival states and initiated the first centralized autocracy, which started off a 20 century-long imperial history in China and exerted a far-reaching influence on subsequent dynasties.Xian was the starting point of t

14、he famous Silk Road when the path to wealth emerged during the Han dynasty; and reached its historical apex during the flourishing and prosperous Tang Dynasty 1300 years ago. Many historians believe that the Changan of the Tang Dynasty was one of the largest cities in the world; and for thousands of

15、 international traders and merchants, Changan was a promising land full of fortune.The English word China is a transliteration of the Chinese ideogram meaning Qin. Those who live in and around Xian are direct descendents of the Qin people. Emperors chose Xian as their capital partly because of its f

16、ertile land and sufficient water supply and partly because it was militarily formidable, because of the mountains that skirted it. It is precisely because of its somewhat isolated location that Xian was able to preserve so much of its history and culture to this day.The local dialect of Xian and the

17、 Guanzhong Plain is reflective of the rhythm and timbre of archaic Chinese. Weddings, funerals, celebrations, diet, and social etiquette are all evocative of the social mores and traditions of the dynasties of the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang.So its no wonder that some say Xian is the historical center o

18、f China today. An ancient philosopher once mused that all those seeking the truth should go to China; and a contemporary philosopher consolidated it with that no visit to China is complete without a journey to Xian.Today, the rich historical and cultural heritage of Xian is visible through a wealth

19、of cultural relics, museums, and historical sites including the world-famous terracotta warriors of Emperor Qin Shi Huang. The flat plane on the citys outskirts is strewn with the tomb mounds of emperors, empresses, aristocrats, ranking officials and scholars from ancient times. The remains of past

20、civilizations are evidence of every major epoch in Chinas half a million year history. The history apparent in Xian is so ancient and continuous that the city has no parallel anywhere as a cultural site.In Xian you will find yourself in a world of amazing artifacts. You can visit the sites once inha
