The Fountain Show is really beautiful and worth a visit! Starts at 8:30pm and lasts 30mins. To look around the park better get there early, is a large area and nice to walk by.

It’s a legendary place associated with an incredible Buddhist legend in Chinese history. Btw you can climb to the top.

Tobias Schmidt

Confucius says: don't climb to the very top of this thing. The view from one floor down is just as good and you'll have it all to yourself!

Matt Mitgang

We lucked out with a spectacular volunteer guide who was a local history professor. Try to find someone to show you around, the temple has an interesting history.

music water fountain is awesome u can tell the story by just listening the music and the movement of the fountains !

Dave Mc

I can’t believe that something this heavy and tall can stand for so long. ????

Marc Sommer

The official guide is actually free of charge (hard to believe, but true), and he gave us a two hour tour (!) for the five of us. Of course it ends in the shop, but you are not forced to buy anything.

Spectacular & awesome musical fountain show just started at 20:35hrs Xi'an 西安。Truly amazed indeed

1-of-ThePagoda-many functions-was to hold sutras & figurines of TheBuddha that were brought to China from India by TheBuddhistTranslator&Travelers-Xuanzang. Now ThisHolyPlace has been TheSymbolOfXi'an

Simple Discoveries

We were told it's not worth the extra fee to go up inside, but it is nice strolling around the temple grounds with ornate Buddhist decor.

Ken Tang

Enjoy the 20mins water fountain show . One during the day and one at night. Highly recommend the night show. It's free! Arrive 30mins early for good view . Stand towards the front to see the colors.

Kyle Xia

You need to spend ¥50 to enter the Temple of Great Maternal Grace and EXTRA ¥30 for the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, VERY EXPENSIVE!!!

JY Choi

You get pretty dizzy by the time you reach the 5th floor but the view is spectacular! Especially the fountain .

Ivan Garin

It is a nice place to go. Communication is terrible: nearest tube at 20min walk and very few cabs.

Nurin Alya

Beautiful gardens surrounding the place

Pohl Yang

Gary Chisholm

Fountain show starts at 9pm daily, a bit underwhelming. Difficult to get a cab after.

muyumao

Very hard to get a taxi . When the fountain show is begin, too many people standing on the stairs. Bad place and not a must-see.

Julia Schröder

Water fountain show is not really a must-see. At least for free…

Column Fleming

The fountain show each night is brilliant

Matej Kalan

Fountain show at 8:30 is a must see!

Gabriela Bautista Aguirre

Hermoso lugar, muy grande por lo que lleva tiempo recorrerlo, hay show de fuentes a las 12:00 del día con música tradicional china!

Ch Great

Θυμίζει κάτι από Νεα Υόρκη και Παρίσι μαζί αυτή η πόλη! Μαγευτική, καμία σχέση με την υπόλοιπη Κίνα... Μεγάλα πεζοδρόμια και φωταγωγημένη σε όλους τους δρόμους της!!!

Oxana

Очень красивый храмовый комплекс, понравился даже в феврале, когда еще ничего не цветет, что и говорить про весну... Символ города .

Daniel Paniagua

Me gusto mucho, desde la terminal de trenes puedes tomar el bus 500 que te deja en la entrada

Sofia Shemiakina

Рядом самый большой в Азии фонтан ,вечером свето-музыкальное шоу. В самом фонтане можно бегать

อิ่มบุญตลอดปีนะก้า

Kyle Xia

50块进大慈恩寺,如果想爬大雁塔还得花30,坑爹的很。另外大雁塔闭塔时间(2011.8证实,其他季节不知)是20:30,不是网上盛传的17:30。
