What you can expect

Xi’an Tang Music Palace Experience
Step into Xi’an Tang Music Palace and be instantly immersed in the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty, surrounded by dragon-carved golden halls, vibrant silk curtains, and a mural of imperial musicians and dancers. Arrive 30 minutes early for a theater-style dining experience: enjoy either the iconic Dumpling Banquet (10+ exquisitely shaped varieties) or a Tang legend-inspired imperial feast, all served in antique tableware. While dining, listen to exclusive live melodies played on rare ancient instruments like the Tang-style pan flute.

The show starts with a resounding gong, as holography transforms the stage into the Tang imperial palace. It brings the storey of young Wu Zetian to life through stunning dance, martial arts, and storytelling, with real-time English subtitles to catch every detail. Don’t miss the thrilling “Campaign” scene and climactic “Ascension to the Throne” moment. After the show, you can take photos with the performers.
