Nicha_A, Nov 2023

Great !

I had Alice as my guide who gave explanations so detailed I barely had any questions to ask. It's a shame that there weren't any tickets to the museum available since I booked the day before and tickets to the Shaanxi history museum is notoriously hard to get. I recommend booking far in advance if you wish to see it.
