You may never imagine how large a cake can be. Here I will introduce one spectacle in Xi'an: Guokwei. You may never hear of Guokwei. It is a traditional Xi'an wheaten food with large and round size. How large it is? You can get it from the below imagine.
Guokwei is one spectacle of Shaanxi Eight Spectacles. People often say that it likes large and thick pot cover. It is famous for its aridness, crisp, white and spicy.
The most obvious feature is its large shape. The inside of Guokwei is soft and the outside is very crisp.
The popularity of Guokwei can be traced back to Tang dynasty, about more than 1200 years ago. In tang dynasty, a large number of farmers were gathered to build the mausoleum of the emperors. Because the projects were large and there were a large number of farmers, the food issue became a difficult problem. Therefore, the large Guokwei was invented. On the other side, the dry Guokwei is easy to kept and can supply a large number of people.
Nowadays, the Guokwei is still popular in Xi'an areas. In addition, the travelers from other places like to taste this so large Guokwei. You should not miss it next time you come to Xi'an.
