Enjoy a great meal at the Qian Zhou Restaurant, before taking a tour of the tomb of the only female emperor ever to rule China, Wu Zetian. The characteristic of this charming restaurant is deeply inspired by the Tang dynasty, and many of the fantastic items on the menu have their origins steeped in tradition. One of these is a special pancake called the Guokui pancake. Guokui means helmet; it is said that when the soldiers were building the tomb of Wu Zetian, they did not have enough time to cook. One soldier used his helmet to roast the dough, and thus invented the Guokui. |
