Sage 思齐
Tour Guide嘿！我叫Sage，西安人。我从十九岁开始做导游，走遍了从兵马俑到莫高窟的大大小小的古迹。每个地方都有讲不完的故事，我最喜欢的就是把这些故事讲给你们听。跟我一起走吧！

"Hey! I'm Sage, from Xi'an. I've been a tour guide since I was nineteen, and I've explored historic sites from the Terracotta Warriors to the Mogao Caves. Every place has endless stories to tell, and what I love most is sharing those stories with you. Come walk with me!"

About Sage
Sage started guiding tours through Xi'an at nineteen, and a decade later he has walked nearly every historic site between the Terracotta Warriors and the Mogao Caves. His Mandarin carries the warmth of someone who has told a thousand stories and still finds new details in each one. He peppers his explanations with folk sayings and local legends. Travelers say his tours feel less like lectures and more like walking through a living novel. He brings that same narrative energy to Mandarin Temple, turning vocabulary into vivid journeys.
