About This Novel
"Searching for the Beauty of China: A Young Man's Journey to Xi'an" is a cultural journey in Xi'an, the ancient capital of the 11th dynasty. Mr. Fu Guoyong led the students to famous scenic spots with profound cultural heritage in Xi'an such as the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, Huaqing Pool, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Shaanxi History Museum, Xingqing Palace Park, and the Ming City Wall to experience the beauty of history, culture and scenery on the spot. They also had conversations with historical figures such as Qin Shihuang, Li Bai, Du Fu, Du Mu, and Bai Juyi, sharing their little-known experiences and stories behind them, and telling historical and cultural knowledge that cannot be learned in textbooks. From the terracotta warriors and horses with thousands of faces to the Huaqing Pool with lingering regrets, from the ruins of Xingqing Palace echoing the sound of the prosperous Tang Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty city walls that have gone through the vicissitudes of time, Mr. Fu Guoyong and the children visited the ancient capital of Xi'an, looking for the culture and beauty scattered in the torrent of history.
