Daming Palace National Heritage Park 大明宫国家遗址公园
Choose Daming Palace Heritage Park when the scale and layout of Tang-era power interests you. Use the interpretation available at the site to understand what once occupied the open spaces, then choose a manageable walking section. This is a different experience from a richly furnished palace interior: imagination and explanation do more of the work. Give the park a clear focus instead of walking long distances simply to complete the grounds. It suits someone who likes archaeology and urban planning more than a tightly packed object collection.
