More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step into a darkened theater on the edge of Xi'an as a low hum grows into thunder — the audience is seated on 360° rotating platforms and the stage unfolds in all directions. Light, water and engineered landscapes push the story forward: volcanic bursts, avalanches, and a 30‑meter waterfall become characters in a retold history of two men traveling from Xi'an toward Rome.
