Back from Xi'an, I really don't recommend going in March. Because of a song, I came to a city.

“Under the city walls of Xi'an are the trains of Xi'an people. No matter where they go, Xi'an people can't live without paomo. The tall buildings of Xi'an are connected one by one. In the hearts of Xi'an people, this is the song of Xi'an people…” Whenever I hear this song "Xi'an People's Song" by the Black Head Band, the city of Xi'an, full of historical charm and the smell of fireworks, unfolds like a painting, making people eager to explore it. In March, accompanied by this familiar melody, let's embark on a wonderful 48-hour trip to Xi'an!👇 📍Day 1: Explore the ancient city walls and feel the vicissitudes of history 1️⃣ Xi'an City Wall Stepping onto the Xi'an City Wall is like traveling back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Although the chill has not yet dissipated in Xi'an in March, the sun shining on the city wall offers a unique view. Rent a bicycle and ride along the wide city wall, overlooking the ancient buildings inside the city and the bustling traffic outside. The majestic atmosphere of the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties comes to you. The city wall is about 14 km long, and the corner towers and enemy towers along the way are scattered in an orderly manner. The traces of time on the bricks and stones are clearly visible, as if telling the changes of the past. 📸Photo Tips: With the ancient city wall and the Bell and Drum Tower in the distance as the background, put on ancient costumes, hold a bow and arrow (props), and capture the heroic moment in the afterglow of the setting sun. It is full of ancient charm, as if you were a city guard from thousands of years ago. 2️⃣ Bell and Drum Tower Square Walk down from the city wall, and you will reach the Bell and Drum Tower Square in a few minutes. The Bell Tower and the Drum Tower stand majestically, complementing each other, and are landmarks of Xi'an. During the day, they are solemn and solemn; at night, when the lights are on, the lights outline the buildings in a magnificent and beautiful way. The square is crowded and lively, with snack stalls and souvenir shops all around. You can try Zhao's mung bean pie in the Zhonglou neighborhood. The crust is crispy, and the filling is delicate, sweet, and delicious. 3️⃣ Muslim Street Adjacent to the Bell and Drum Tower Square, Muslim Street is filled with smoke and fire. Here, all kinds of halal delicacies are gathered, and the aroma of mutton paomo, sesame paste cold skin, and zeng cake fills the air. Walk into a time-honored restaurant, break the mo, and patiently wait for a bowl of steaming hot paomo with rich soup to be served. According to the authentic way of eating, first take a sip of the soup along the edge of the bowl, and feel the mellow and fresh aroma spread on the tip of your tongue, then eat the mo and meat in big mouthfuls. You will feel warm all over and experience the authentic Xi'an food culture. 📍Day 2: Trace the Chinese civilization and enjoy the natural scenery 1️⃣ Shaanxi History Museum In the morning, head to the Shaanxi History Museum. This place can be called an underground treasure trove of cultural relics. The museum has a rich and diverse collection, ranging from stone tools from ancient times to bronzes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, from terracotta figures from the Qin and Han dynasties to murals from the Sui and Tang dynasties. Walking through the various exhibition halls is like traveling through time and space, having a dialogue with history, and appreciating the long history and profoundness of Chinese civilization, which is amazing. 📸Photo Tips: Outside the Tang Dynasty Mural Exhibition Hall of the Shaanxi History Museum, with the exquisite mural copy as the background, put on a Tang suit, hold a round fan, and capture the elegant moment of appreciating the painting under the soft light, showing the charm of the Tang Dynasty. 2️⃣ Giant Wild Goose Pagoda Leave the Shaanxi History Museum and walk for a few minutes to reach the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda. As the earliest and largest existing square pavilion-style brick tower of the Tang Dynasty, the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda is majestic and spectacular. The Dacien Temple under the tower is full of incense. Walk into the temple, listen to the long bell, admire the Buddha statues, and feel the solemnity and tranquility of Buddhist culture. The surrounding Datang Everbright City Pedestrian Street is even more lively at night, with imitation Tang buildings, bright lights, and wonderful literary performances, such as the performance of the "Never-Falling Sister", attracting many tourists to stop and watch, as if dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty. 3️⃣ Qujiang Pool Ruins Park In the afternoon, come to Qujiang Pool Ruins Park. The lake of Qujiang Pool in March is sparkling. Although it is a bit chilly, the scenery is unique. Stroll along the lake, admire the lake and mountains, breathe the fresh air, and imagine the grand scene of the Tang Dynasty nobles playing here. The pavilions, terraces, and winding paths in the park reveal simplicity and elegance everywhere, making it a good place for leisure and relaxation. 4️⃣ Yongxingfang (Dinner) In the evening, go to Yongxingfang. Here, there are not only various Shaanxi specialties, but also traditional folk culture displays. Have a bowl of "摔碗酒" (broken bowl wine) to experience the bold and unrestrained Shaanxi style, and then taste buckwheat noodles, Zichang pancakes and other delicacies. Relive your Xi'an trip in the delicious food, and draw a perfect end to these 48 hours. 🏨【Accommodation Recommendations】 It is recommended to stay in Beilin District or Yanta District.
