Xi'an City Wall Guide

I Won't Allow You Not to Know/Xi'an Tourism. "Under the city wall of Xi'an is the train of Xi'an people." When it comes to Xi'an, this song always echoes in my mind. Today, I will take you on a journey through time and space to have a spiritual encounter with the ancient city wall. Ticket Price: Refer to Ctrip for ticket prices. There is a joint ticket with the Forest of Stone Steles Museum. If you happen to be interested in the Forest of Stone Steles, then go for it decisively, as it can save you some money. (If you enter the city wall from the South Gate, purchase tickets online in advance, as there is currently no manual channel.) Route: Enter from the South Gate (Yongning Gate) and exit from the East Gate (Changle Gate). It is recommended to climb the city wall around 4 PM in summer. You can see the sunset and not miss the afterglow of the setting sun. The total length of the city wall is more than 10 kilometers. Those with good stamina can walk the entire route. You can also rent a sightseeing bicycle for a fee, which is not expensive, or take an electric cart. Personally, I suggest walking a section or riding a bicycle around the city wall, which will definitely yield great photos. If you arrive early, you can go to a café at the foot of the city wall for a cup of coffee and enjoy the northwest wind, which has a unique charm. That's all for today. If you have any specific questions, you can discuss them in the comments section or send me a private message.

Xi'an Muslim Quarter

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
