Xi'an Night Life
Though not as lively as Beijing or Shanghai, Xi'an's
large student population and general prosperity make it very
exciting at night. By nightfall, red lanterns are lit across
the city and the perimeter of neon lights along the city walls
adds to the evening ambience.
Karaoke is popular in China and people in Xi'an also spend much
of their time singing to Chinese and English songs, with friends
in karaoke bars. Like a living room, nicely decorated with a
sound system in place, all you have to do is pick up the microphone.
Drinks and snacks are served. They are generally open from 7pm
to 2am, sometimes later.
There are many movie theatres playing Chinese and foreign films.
Most of the films have subtitles. The only difference is you can
choose whether you want sweet or salty popcorn.
The Tang Dynasty Dinner Show is very popular among
tourists. The Tang Dynasty Dinner Show is performed by the "Tang
Dynasty Song & Dance Troupe", a branch of the "Shaanxi
Provincial Song & Dance Troupe". This type of performance
has been treasured as a national art that reflects the glory
and richness of the Tang Dynasty era.
The performance features Chang'an music and dance
which originated from China's Tang Dynasty over a thousand years
ago. It has been recreated in accordance with various historical
records as well as ancient art and relics discovered in Xi'an,
the capital of the empire during the Tang Dynasty.
