The Great Tang Mall is a pedestrian street that highlights the rich Tang culture of Xi'an. It's the perfect place to witness and immerse oneself in this cultural experience. At night, the park becomes illuminated with vibrant lights and lively crowds.

The journalists started their visit from the South Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and walked along the pedestrian street to the interactive performance area.

The humorous interactions and engaging conversations between the two performers and the audience caught the attention of the journalists.

In recent years, the interactive cultural programs launched by Great Tang Mall, a charming calling card of Xi'an, have attracted flocks of locals and tourists.

"I didn't expect this relatively short pedestrian street to attract so many tourists. It's so lively!" exclaimed a senior journalist and host from the Philippine SMNI TV Station while taking pictures.

"You can find many delicious snacks here, and there are wonderful performances just a few steps away. The pedestrian street is full of ancient and modern charm, allowing me to feel the vitality and charm of Xi'an," the journalist added.

The journalists expressed their intentions to bring back their impressions of the visit to the Philippines, spreading the beauty of Xi'an and the Tang culture to their friends and colleagues, and encouraging them to come and experience the unique charm of Xi'an.
