Heading to Xi’an? Yo

Heading to Xi’an? You can’t miss the legendary Xi’an Drum Tower – a spot that’s got both serious history and some of the best city views you’ll find! 🌇 Top Spot to Visit: Xi’an Drum Tower Address: No. 74, North Courtyard, Lianhu District, Xi'an Opening Hours: - Apr 1-Jul 18: 08:30-21:30 (last ticket: 21:00) - Jul 19-Aug 31: 08:30-22:30 (last ticket: 22:00) - Sep 1-Oct 10: 08:30-21:30 (last ticket: 21:00) - Oct 11–Mar 31: 08:30-18:00 (last ticket: 17:30) Admission Fee: ¥30 Why go? The Drum Tower is not just epic on the outside, but climbing up gets you sweeping panoramic views of Xi’an that totally wowed me. The way the city lights sparkle at night makes it even more magical (sunset or after-dark visits highly recommended for next-level pics 📸). The place isn’t overly crowded if you go later in the day, letting you chill and take in the vibes. Getting Around: The Drum Tower is right in the city center — super easy to walk to from the Muslim Quarter or take a quick metro/taxi from almost anywhere in Xi’an. Eat & Drink: After your tower tour, hit up the Muslim Quarter nearby for must-try local eats like roujiamo (Chinese burger) and fresh pomegranate juice. Pro Tip: Bring a light jacket after sunset; it gets breezy on top, but you’ll want to stay for those killer views! #xiandrumtower #xiantrip #chinatravel #travelguide #tripdotcom
