Qujiang Pond Ruins Park

First, you can guess from the literal meaning that there are almost no ancient relics left in the ruins, but since it is free, let's take a look. First of all, I have to emphasize that the biggest experience and feeling of this trip to Xi'an is that this city, whether in management or planning, has too many resources and makes good use of them, so the infrastructure construction and urban construction are very good! In fact, the real Qujiang Lake in the Tang Dynasty no longer exists. There are only the ruins of the ancient Qujiang Lake inlet and outlet discovered by the staff in recent decades. On this basis, the Qujiang Lake Ruins Park was newly built. It can be said that the conception and design are very clever. Fitness trails, greening, bronze sculptures, and cherry blossoms are new scenery. Second, what attracted me most was that there are many ancient architectural structures collected from all over the country in the park, stone lions, column bases... and more horse stones, horse tie posts, stone benches than you can imagine... Third, because I am interested in history, I went to see the Hanyao Ruins specifically. It is a ruins again. Well, although there is no accurate cave dwelling where Wang Baochuan lived (but it is so old, it really can't be preserved, right?), but revisiting her story with Xue Pinggui is also a complete success. I have been thinking about a question. It is said that Wang Baochuan is the daughter of a prime minister and she fought against the feudal hierarchy. She married Xue Pinggui, who was born in Ping'an. I have no problem with that. The problem is that she stayed in the cold kiln for 18 years. Isn't that too long? Is stubbornness really a good thing? I haven't thought it through. Fourth, there are pairs of black swans by the Qujiang Lake, foraging with their babies. If you want to touch the baby's furry head, you will be strictly guarded by the swan parents and cannot get close. As long as you move, it will bite you. It is also very cute.

The park is built around the Qujiang Lake, with a running track and many pillars arranged along the road like street trees. There is a rocky beach that can be crossed, but it is not open to the public.

There are many stone sculptures such as stone lions along the road. The oldest ones seem to be from the Song Dynasty. Some were collected from other places. These stone sculptures are covered with glass.

Xi'an has severe smog in winter, which makes it unsuitable for people to go out and the visibility is also poor.

Qujiang Lake Ruins Park is located in the Qujiang Scenic Belt in the southern suburbs of Xi'an, connected to the Tang Paradise in the north and the ruins of the Mausoleum of Qin II in the south, covering an area of 1,500 mu. The Qujiang Lake Ruins Park was designed by the famous Chinese architectural design master Academician Zhang Jinqiu. Relying on the rich tourism and cultural resources and cultural traditions in the surrounding area, it restores the historical and cultural landscapes such as Qujiang South Lake, Qujiang Liuyin, Hanwu Spring, Yichun Garden, and Phoenix Pool, and reproduces the landscape and cultural pattern of "repeated green forests and green waters" in the Qujiang area.

The Qujiang Pond Ruins Park is connected to the Tang Dynasty Furong Garden in the north and the Mausoleum of Qin II in the south, covering an area of 1,500 mu. Starting from the perspective of the protective development of cultural relics and historical sites such as the Tang Qujiang Pond Ruins and the Tomb of Emperor Qin II, the urban function supporting facilities and the regional ecological environment construction, relying on the rich tourism and cultural resources and cultural traditions in the surrounding area, the historical and cultural landscapes such as Qujiang South Lake, Qujiang Liuyin, Hanwu Spring, Yichun Garden, and Phoenix Pond are restored and recreated, reproducing the landscape and cultural pattern of "green forests repeating and green waters permeating" in the Qujiang area, and building a comprehensive urban ecological and entertainment leisure area integrating ecological environment reconstruction, sightseeing and leisure, and modern business exhibitions. With the surface of Qujiang Pond as the center and the exit of Qujiang Liuyin as the boundary, it is divided into eight scenic spots: Hanwu Spring Scenic Area, Artists' Home Scenic Area, Qujiang Pavilion Scenic Area, Minghuang Zhanqiao Scenic Area, Yuejiang Tower Scenic Area, Yanbo Island Scenic Area, Yunshaoju Scenic Area, and Changguan Tower Scenic Area. The night view of Qujiang Pond Ruins Park is very good.

This is a tourist attraction I visited casually. Many locals are there, flying kites and taking walks. It is secluded and comfortable.

I had dinner at Yuejianglou yesterday, and Hengheng brought a homemade cake 🎂. The roses nearby are in bloom, which is suitable for taking photos.

The former royal garden of the Tang Dynasty is similar to Beijing's Beihai Park. It has a nice night view and is free of charge, which is much better than the high ticket price of the Tang Paradise.

A park open to the public for free. The lake is not as beautiful as the mountains, but the overall feeling is comfortable and relaxing. It is worth a visit.

The Qujiang Pond Ruins is adjacent to the Tang Paradise, which was the royal garden of the Tang Dynasty. Banquets were held here every time a new Jinshi passed the imperial examination. There are many statues depicting life in the Tang Dynasty in the park, as well as Shaanxi folk culture performances and some paid entertainment programs.

The park is very large and has complete supporting facilities, but it is under maintenance recently and cannot be entered. So I don't recommend you to go there for the time being.

A lake, a real estate market, and a walkway are where Xi'an people like to live and hang out.

The Qujiang Pond Ruins Park is connected to the Tang Paradise in the north and the Mausoleum of Emperor Qin II in the south. Starting from the perspective of the protective development of cultural relics such as the Tang Qujiang Pond Ruins and the Tomb of Emperor Qin II, as well as the supporting urban functions and regional ecological environment construction, and relying on the rich tourism and cultural resources and humanistic traditions in the surrounding area, it restores and recreates the historical and cultural landscapes such as Qujiang South Lake, Qujiang Liuyin, Hanwu Spring, Yichun Garden, and Phoenix Pond, recreating the landscape and cultural pattern of "repeated green forests and green waters" in the Qujiang area.

Qujiang Lake Ruins Park (Nanhu Park) is connected to Tang Furong Garden in the north and to the Mausoleum of Qin Ershi in the south, covering an area of 1,500 mu. Starting from the perspective of the protective development of cultural relics and historical sites such as the Tang Qujiang Lake Ruins and the Tomb of Qin Ershi Emperor, urban function supporting and regional ecological environment construction, relying on the rich tourism and cultural resources and cultural traditions in the surrounding area, the historical and cultural landscapes such as Qujiang South Lake, Qujiang Liuyin, Hanwu Spring, Yichun Garden and Phoenix Pool are restored and recreated, reproducing the landscape and cultural pattern of "green forests repeating and green waters permeating" in the Qujiang area, and building a comprehensive urban ecological and entertainment and leisure area integrating ecological environment reconstruction, sightseeing and leisure, modern business exhibition and other functions. Qujiang Lake Ruins Park was designed by the famous architect Zhang Jinqiu. It covers an area of 471 mu and was built on the basis of the original Qujiang Lake on July 1, 2008. The water surface of Qujiang Lake is only 1,088 meters long from north to south, and the width varies from east to west. The widest part is 552 meters, divided into upper pool and lower pool. It is now open to tourists free of charge.

Qujiang was a park for the royal family and common people in Chang'an during the Qin, Sui and Han dynasties. Many poets visited here and left behind stories of emperors and common people having fun together on the Shangsi Festival and the imperial scholars' banquet. There are many beautiful Tang Dynasty buildings, statues of poets and ladies on both sides of Qujiang River. The scenery is beautiful and worth visiting. The elegance of the Han and Tang dynasties is reflected in Qujiang River.

It is a large park with many CBD business buildings and residential areas nearby. The environment is very good, the fountains are beautiful, there are also children's parks and water entertainment facilities.

There are two different views during the day and at night. I prefer Qujiang Lake at night, when the lights are on and the light and shadows make it feel real. The distance of one lap is 4.2 kilometers, which is accurate because it is a night run. Qujiang Liuyin, one of the eight scenic spots in Guanzhong, I guess I drank a lot here. I drank a lot of wine and wrote poems in my mind.

Overall evaluation: green, gray, yellow, color.

Crowd: 5/10. A very comfortable park

Scenery: It is a combination of natural and cultural scenery in the city. I prefer the two trails, especially the lakeside embankment. The night view of Qujiang Lake is particularly beautiful.

Scenic area services: The sanitation is good, there are catering services at a higher price, there are patrols, and there are security patrols on the lake. There are related consulting services at the entrance of the scenic area. The public toilets are quite clean.

Transportation: The bus is convenient, but it is far from the nearest Metro Line 3 Dayan Pagoda Station. Parking is not very convenient, and you can only choose roadside parking.



Overall evaluation: A very comfortable place, a dual-purpose area for sightseeing and daily residents' fitness. At present, there has been no overcrowding, and travel agencies are rarely seen here.

It not only has a long history, but also has excellent scenery and natural environment.

It was the royal garden of the Tang Dynasty. Now, many imitation Tang Dynasty ancient buildings and sculptures showing the life of the Tang Dynasty have been built. It is a comprehensive heritage park integrating ecological reconstruction, sightseeing and leisure, business exhibition and other functions. Admission is free. It takes 1-2 hours to play. It is connected to the Datang Furong Garden in the north and the ruins of the Mausoleum of Qin Ershi in the south, covering an area of 1,500 acres. Citizens like to come here to walk or row along the Qujiang Lake.

You can also see Shaanxi handicrafts such as paper cutting and clay sculptures, as well as Qinqiang and shadow play performances in the park. The park has north, east and west gates. Generally, tourists enter the park from the north gate near the Tang Paradise. There is also an exciting high-altitude zipline project in the park (extra charge).

The Qujiang Pond Ruins Park is connected to the Tang Paradise in the north and the ruins of the Mausoleum of Qin Ershi in the south. It is open to visitors free of charge.

Qujiang Pond Ruins Park is an open urban ecological and cultural park that integrates historical and cultural protection, ecological gardens, landscape, leisure tourism, folk heritage, and art exhibitions.

The scenery in the park is really good to take pictures of

The park is quite large. In order to catch the fountain at night, we only walked halfway and then went to find something to eat.

The flowers are so beautiful in spring. You can take a walk when you have time.

Take a stroll in Qujiangchi Ruins Park. The park has nice scenery, the magpies are black and gray, and the elderly and children are strolling around!

The park has many sculptures depicting social life in the Tang Dynasty, which are arranged throughout the park, on lawns, squares, hillsides, waterfronts, and even in the water, shrouding the park in a rich Tang Dynasty cultural atmosphere.

The scenery of Qujiang may not be particularly outstanding, but it is also nice to take it as a spring outing, find the feeling of looking for flowers on the banks of the Si River on a beautiful day, and enjoy the spring scenery of thousands of green silk ribbons hanging down.

Maybe because it is free, there is nothing special about it. But the air is fresh and many citizens run here.

The photo of Qujiang South Lake was taken from the rooftop of Wanzhong International Building, and the photo of Big Wild Goose Pagoda was taken from Houcun Jiayuan, but it seems that you can’t go to the rooftop now.

Nanhu Park refers to Qujiang Lake Ruins Park. Nanhu Park is the name given by Xi'an people themselves. The official name is Xi'an Qujiang Ruins Park. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Longji, re-dredged and opened the canal, diverted the water of Dayu into the Huangqu Canal and poured it into the pond. Because of the tortuous terrain and the overflowing river, it was named Qujiang.

Note: If you walk, the park is quite large. The combination of natural and artificial landscapes makes it a park suitable for taking photos. It is adjacent to the Qujiang Hanyao Ruins Park and can be visited on the same day.

I came here to take a look while waiting for the fountain. The view is vast and the construction is also good. You can feel Xi'an, which is different from the ancient city. Opposite is the Gemdale Shopping Plaza.

The Qujiang Lake Ruins Park is rated as a 5A scenic spot. It is a restoration of the Qujiang Lake, which flourished in the Qin and Han Dynasties and flourished in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. There are many sculptures depicting life in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. You can walk around the lake for exercise. This scenic spot benefits the local people, who can take a walk and play after dinner. It is suitable for driving. The business is not developed, so it is enough to go once.

The Qujiang Ruins Park is well built and suitable for walking and exercising. The nature of the specific attractions is not very obvious, but it is still okay for a leisurely walk, as if it is a park for locals, where you can stroll, row boats, etc.

The Qujiangchi Ruins Park is free, and there is also a Hanyao Ruins Park next to it, which is charged. The antique buildings in the park are beautiful and suitable for taking photos. There are not many people in the park, it is very quiet, and there are residents from the surrounding area jogging here early in the morning.

Qujiang is so beautiful. It snowed in Xi'an recently. Let me show you the winter snow scene.

The urban wetland park in downtown Xi'an is a great place for a walk after dinner.

It was the royal garden in the Tang Dynasty, a comprehensive urban ecological and entertainment and leisure free park in the urban area, where you can admire Tang Dynasty-style architectural sculptures and Shaanxi-style handicrafts.

Let me talk about the contents of the Qujiang Ruins, the Qujiang Hanyao Ruins of Xue Pinggui and Wang Baochuan, the Ruins of Qin II, and the ecological green belt of the Tang City Wall Ruins. It was not too cold yet, and it was still green and full of vitality. Personally, I think that I came to Xi'an with a guide, and the Qujiang Ruins was also what I planned to go to. Although I was "intercepted" halfway, I was willing to do it.

In the next few days, I talked to the locals, and almost everyone told me that it is optional to go to the Tang Paradise. If you have plenty of time and energy, you can go. If you are like me and just want to see the natural scenery, then you can choose not to go, and there is nothing to regret.

The reviews are very good, but for people who come from the Jiangnan water town, it's just a one-stop visit.

It is really refreshing to walk into the park. It is a quiet scenic spot in the bustling city. Willows are swaying by the lake and wild geese are playing in the lake.

Qujiang Lake, it takes more than an hour to circle the lake, it's a good place for a leisurely walk, and the attractions are...

1. The park is uniquely designed, combining natural and cultural landscapes. Various sculptures are based on the life of the Tang Dynasty, which are lifelike. 2. The pavilions, corridors, terraces and towers in the scenic area have different architectural forms, but the style is unified. In addition to being available for "outsiders", they also meet the various functions of "insiders". 3. There are various scenic views around the pool, and the winding tour has its own characteristics. 4. It is worth mentioning that the park is a heritage park, not just a simple protection, but also the use of the heritage to make it more rich. The park has added stone carvings and cultural relics, which are pleasing to the eye and knowledgeable.

My Home

We in Xi'an don't call this place Qujiang, but Nanhu. On the sunny evening the day after the rain

2017.7.31 The whole family visited Qujiangchi Ruins Park, a free cultural landscape with nice scenery and pleasant views; feel the history and culture

It's a very worthwhile place to visit. It's free. But it's more beautiful than many paid ones. The night view is beautiful. The little fish are very cute. I will definitely go again.

The park is large in area, with few visitors and a natural and quiet scenery. Lotus flowers are blooming in front of Yuejiang Tower, and construction is underway everywhere.

A very large, ordinary park. There are fish food for sale, and the water is expensive.

Yeah! It's a parent-child park, a nice little place! :)

The environment is beautiful and the facilities are complete, but the security guards here actually chase people away. If you feel tired and want to sit for a while, they will actually chase you out. It feels like a dark place for Xi'an.

I don't recommend going there. I don't know why some people say it's more beautiful than the Tang Paradise. Although the ticket to the Paradise is a bit more expensive, it's better than the Qujiang Pond. The Qujiang Pond is just a park now, nothing special about it.

If you are not in a hurry, you can come here for a walk. It is suitable for a leisurely route.

Qujiang Lake Ruins Park is an open urban ecological and cultural park integrating historical and cultural protection, ecological gardens, landscape, leisure tourism, folk heritage, and art exhibition. It is divided into eight scenic areas: Hanwu Spring Scenic Area, Artists' Home Scenic Area, Qujiang Pavilion Scenic Area, Minghuang Zhanqiao Scenic Area, Yuejiang Tower Scenic Area, Yanbo Island Scenic Area, Yunshaoju Scenic Area, and Changguan Tower Scenic Area.

This place is nice. Most tour groups don't go to this place. It's in Qujiang New District. I was taken to this place by someone near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. It costs 5 yuan per person. I felt that this place was pretty good after the visit.

The scenery of Qujiang Lake is good, and the exterior scenery is comparable to that of Tang Paradise

Qujiang Lake Park is a free and open place. The public facilities are still to be improved. The public transportation and parking are confusing. There are not many places to eat, so you have to find other places.

Qujiang Lake is a free park. The surrounding buildings are in imitation of Tang Dynasty architectural style and are relatively large. In the Tang Dynasty, this place was a spring outing tourist attraction for the people in Chang'an City. Especially on the second day of the second lunar month, the Cold Food Festival and the Qingming Festival every year, the people of Chang'an at that time would come to Qujiang Lake to enjoy the flowers and go outings, and have a picnic by the Qujiang Lake at noon. At that time, women generally stayed at home and did not meet outsiders. But at these two times of the year, the beauties in Chang'an were allowed to gather by the Qujiang Lake, giving men who usually could not see women a feast for the eyes. So some older men and women who were over 20 and had not yet married regarded this place as a holy place for blind dates. Although the marriage of men and women at that time was based on the orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers, the laws of the Tang Dynasty allowed women over 25 and men over 30 to marry freely, so Qujiang Lake also created countless pairs of lovers. Many great poets of the Tang Dynasty visited Qujiang Lake and wrote popular poems. Every year, the emperor himself also came to Qujiang Lake for an outing. A temporary palace was built on the north bank of Qujiang Lake. Sometimes the emperor would climb the high platform in the palace to watch the people having fun, and even let his servants scatter copper coins to the people who were kneeling outside the palace gate as a reward for the people. But the scenery feels like it is only at the same level as the lakes in Xiaoyaojin, Feicui Lake, Swan Lake, or Shulu Park in Hefei. It is not as good as Bao Park and it is completely incomparable with Chaohu Lake. However, there are many times more poems and literati visiting the park and emperors visiting Qujiang Lake than in Hefei. It is worth going as a free attraction, but it is not worth going there before visiting the main attractions. Because the scenery of this lake is not too outstanding. Take bus No. 500 to Yanta South Station, then take bus No. 609 or No. 22 to Qujiang Lake Ruins Park Station, and you can enter the north gate of Qujiang Lake for a visit.

We are not very clear about the origin of Qujiang Lake Ruins Park, we only know that many cultural relics have been dug up nearby. There is also a light rail for sightseeing, which is said to be 80 yuan per ticket, we just watched. It was already evening when we arrived at the park. We first walked along the entrance and enjoyed the charming scenery of Qujiang Lake Ruins Park. When we walked to the bicycle rental place, I couldn't help but nag Brother Niu to rent a double bicycle and ride around the park.

The scenery is beautiful, the air is fresh, and it is also very good in winter. The clear lake is a good place to relax. The park is very large and it is very tiring to walk around. There are various imitation Tang Dynasty buildings, bronze statues, reliefs, and murals. Such a good park is open for free. I personally think it is more worth visiting than the Tang Furong Garden!

Qujiang Pond Ruins Park is located in Yanta District, Xi'an. It used to be a royal park. The park is large and has beautiful scenery. You can go boating and it is a free attraction. I passed by this place by chance. According to the taxi driver, these 10 horses are all carved from different jades, which means perfection! Qujiang Pond Hanyao Ruins Park is not large in area. It is said that the love story of Wang Baochuan and Xie Pinggui took place here, so a love and marriage theme park was built here.

Qujiangchi Ruins Park is a place to spend time strolling. If you want, you can walk for a whole day.

We wanted to relax on the weekend, so we drove here with our family. The weather was nice, the air was great, and my dad was very happy.

It should be a good place for citizens to take a leisurely walk or jog. For a tourist like me, those statues and other things became good props for taking photos. I set up a tripod and entertained myself in the park for a whole afternoon...

Qujiang Lake is really a conscientious recommendation. Not only is the scenery beautiful, but the important thing is that it is free of charge!!! We were taken to an entrance by the Didi driver. As soon as I got off the car, I felt a cool breeze, and I didn't wear long johns yet! Forget it, I have been in Chengdu for two years, and I can still survive this little cold. We walked on the driveway for a long time and finally found the stairs to enter the park. It was so suitable for taking pictures all the way in the park! I feel that we are still quite lucky. We caught up with the park and all transportation was half price. We rented a single car and a small car (a two-seater car with a canopy), which were 10 yuan/hour and 30 yuan/hour respectively. If you don't stop and go, it's almost enough to ride around the park for an hour. If you exceed the time limit, you will be charged an extra five yuan for every half hour.

Qujiangchi Ruins Park and the surrounding Qujiang Hanyao Ruins Park, Qin Ershi Mausoleum Ruins Park, Tang City Wall Ruins Park, etc. form an urban ecological landscape belt. The park is free of charge. If time permits, you can come here for leisure, but in fact, the park's characteristics are not obvious. There is a reed marsh that attracts my father who likes to watch anti-Japanese war movies to take pictures~ You can see the elevated sightseeing bus in the city in the park. When I came here the night before, the light was insufficient and I couldn't see clearly. I thought the track of the sightseeing bus was some kind of decoration. But the sightseeing bus ticket is quite expensive, so I didn't take it.

A large civic park.

There are many sculptures.

It's worth taking a slow walk.

Qujiangchi Ruins Park (the park is quite large and the scenery is nice, but there is a section of the stone road across the river that is closed, otherwise it would be more interesting)

Qujiang Pond Ruins Park, as a leisure place for citizens, is very beautiful, comfortable and relaxed, but as a tourist attraction it is a bit light.

It's free, the environment is beautiful, and you can exercise for half an hour every day by walking around the lake. It's a good place for local people to relax. During this trip, I always saw considerate boys pushing their wives in wheelchairs to take pictures and sightsee. People unknowingly believed in love.

I spent the whole afternoon here. The scenery is very nice. I took a lot of photos. I am most satisfied with the photos I took in Xi'an. This is a big park with a lake in the center. Of course, for someone like me who sees the sea every day, I don't have any special feelings about the lake. I just think it's like a pond. I also bought fish food and fed the fish. The most unforgettable thing is that we didn't bring any food, so we got hungry after walking around, so we went out to eat. This ended the trip to the park.

I live in Qujiang and have nowhere to go at night, so I just wandered around. The night view is beautiful and the air is fresh after the rain. I recommend people who live nearby to go there.

It's a free park. I don't know what it's like in other seasons, but it's beautiful in autumn.

Let's talk about a relatively unpopular park - Qujiangchi Ruins Park. It is a free park that was built in the Tang Dynasty and renovated in modern times. Because there are few people, it is convenient to visit. It is October, and there are large areas of reeds, which is very beautiful.

The park is very beautiful and large, with great views, a new scene at every step, and very few people. I went there on the weekend and went to the Shaanxi Museum first, which was just for people watching. It was only when I came to Qujiang Pond Park that I was very happy. I was so happy that I discovered such a good park. The whole park was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus.

Qujiangchi Ruins Park is very beautiful and it is best to go there. It is an open park and does not charge admission.

Qujiang Lake Ruins Park is a free open urban ecological cultural park. There are many sculptures showing the social life of the Tang Dynasty, and the atmosphere of Tang Dynasty culture is strong. The park is relatively large and spacious, but the signboards are not clear enough. Later, we asked several people to find the square to board the helium balloon and walked a lot of wrong ways. There are not many people, usually nearby citizens are exercising or taking a walk. My favorite is the helium balloon sightseeing, because the city where I live does not have this, so it is relatively rare, haha.

Qujiangchi Ruins Park is an open park that is free to visit. There are many sculptures in it, all of which contain the charm of the Tang Dynasty. It is suitable for a leisurely walk and the scenery is nice.

Opening hours

Winter (September to March): 09:30~17:30

Summer (April to August): 09:00~18:00

The Qujiang Lake Ruins Park is built around a lake, just like the cultural atmosphere of the ancient city of Xi'an. Ancient statues can be seen everywhere in the park. There is a large pavilion not far away, which is very convenient for leisure or shelter from the rain. If you walk around for an hour, there is a circulating battery car in the park, which costs 30 yuan per person. You can get on and off as you like, and stop as you like until you can play the whole park. It is good for outings on weekdays, but it is a bit of a luxury to arrange time to play in Xi'an, because there are not many people and it is comfortable to play.
