A city full of history.

The museum collections and the architectural design of the museums themselves are truly impressive. If you love history, you really shouldn't miss it. To avoid the crowds and fully enjoy the museum artifacts, it's recommended to visit during the off-season. The Terracotta Army Museum, Xi'an History Museum, Xi'an Archaeological Museum, Forest of Stone Steles Museum, Bell Tower, Drum Tower, etc., some of the collections are even national treasures and are not loaned out. I sincerely recommend getting a guided tour. For accommodation, I chose the Novotel Bell Tower Hotel. The transportation is very convenient, just a 2-minute walk to the subway station, and you can also walk to Luomashi Pedestrian Street, Bell Tower, Drum Tower, Muslim Street, and other major attractions. More importantly, the hotel service is super attentive. Due to a heating issue, the hotel staff proactively offered to change my room and even upgraded it for free. Additionally, because of a small issue like dental floss, they proactively bought a new one for me. I originally thought that since it was no longer managed by the French Accor Group, the service would decline, but it turned out that they maintained the usual Novotel service quality. Special praise goes to the hotel staff member Wenwen, who, through the WeChat butler service, provided attentive service from before check-in to after check-out, offering a very good accommodation experience for this trip to Xi'an.

Spent 3 amazing nights in Xi’an and I couldn’t believe how epic the old meets new vibes are! 😍 From ancient emperors to neon noodle bars, this city brings the drama. If you’re after history, food, and super easy adventures, bookmark this! Must-See Places: - Terracotta Warriors Museum (Lintong District, 8:30am–5pm): Xi’an’s no.1 must! The army is jaw-dropping. Pro tip: Go early for photo ops. - City Wall (South Gate, 8am–10pm): Walk or rent a bike for a killer city view. At night, fairy lights make it extra magical. - Muslim Quarter (Huimin St, til late): Snack heaven — try lamb kebabs or roujiamo (“Chinese burger”). Crowds thin out after 8pm for easier exploring. - Giant Wild Goose Pagoda (Yanta District, 8am–5pm): Beautiful architecture and a chill surrounding park. - Drum Tower & Bell Tower (Beilin District, 8:30am–9:30pm): These historic towers are close together and super photogenic, especially at dusk. Tips: - Buy tickets for major spots on trip.com ahead — lines can be gnarly at Terracotta Warriors. - Biking the City Wall takes ~1.5 hours. Bring water! - The subway and Didi (ride-sharing) make getting around dead simple. - Most street stalls in the Muslim Quarter take cash or WeChat Pay, so load up before heading out. - Weather: Xi’an can be dry year-round but gets chilly at night — pack layers. Food Faves: - Roujiamo at Lao Sun Jia — it’s iconic - Hand-pulled biangbiang noodles at First Noodle Under The Sun - Persimmon cakes from street vendors Getting Around: - Xi’an Metro is clean, cheap, and English-friendly. - Didi app works best for late nights or further spots. Pack some comfy shoes because you’ll walk LOTS. Xi’an totally delivers, whether you’re a history buffs or a foodie on the run! #XianTrip #AncientChina #FoodieAdventure #TerracottaWarriors #tripdotcom
