Can I buy a ticket at site instead of booking it in advance?
Yes, you can. However, you may meet with some difficulties. In many scenic areas, the staff do not speak English, so you need to take language barrier into consideration. Besides, long queues for buying entrance ticket are common in popular attractions, especially during Chinese public holidays. The last but not the least, many scenic areas limit the number of tickets sold at site per day. If you get there late, the ticket is possibly not available. Therefore, we strongly recommend you to book a ticket online in advance to guarantee a smooth trip.
How far in advance should I book a ticket?
After you have made out a China travel itinerary, you can start the booking of admission tickets for scenic areas involved. Generally speaking, most scenic areas of China release tickets seven days ahead of the entry date, and we can grasp it as soon as possible. The latest time you can book is the day before your intended travel.

Do I need to redeem a paper ticket after booking online? Or can I enter the scenic area directly?
The case varies in different scenic areas. You can simply have your passport or QR code scanned to enter some scenic areas, while some require you to collect a paper ticket at the ticket window using the QR code, Confirmation No., or passport.
How do I pay for a ticket order? Do I need to pay while booking or upon arrival at the scenic area?

Got a little worried when I got to the place and read at the entrance that they are not working with any other non-official partners for ticket sales since 1st january 2024 except the ones they had written there (bought my ticket after that) and this company didnt appeared there in writing. However, when I got to the door, they checked my passport and all was ok. Just make sure to get there on the time booked (morning or afternoon session), cause they don't let you in before or after. ...More
I had to change my ticket and it was no problem.
Thank you for your great service!

However, we are sorry that the time is not enough for you to catch up the show. For a full day schedule, you may need a train after 8pm from Luoyang Longmen Station. You will only reach Xi'an North Station around 10pm. It still takes around 1 hour by taxi to reach Huaqing Pool.
The show usually begins at 20:10pm, sometimes a second show will be added and begins at 21:40pm. Travelers need to be there around 20 to 30min in advance.
