Xi'an is back! 3 days and 2 nights non-detour guide! Quickly save it
After three trips to Xi'an,
I have summarized this super detailed 3-day and 2-night guide.
Friends who want to come recently, hurry up and save it!
Especially friends departing from Chengdu, highly recommend 🚅, very convenient.
✔️Day1
Morning: Chengdu 🚅 Xi'an, arrive at the hotel at noon, start citywalk in the afternoon to check in at Xi'an Dazibao, and see the night view of the Bell Tower.
It is recommended to book a hotel near the Bell Tower, as it is very convenient to travel by subway. After arriving at the hotel at noon and resting for a while, start walking around to check in at various Xi'an Dazibao walls and landmarks.
After dinner, go to the fifth floor of Kaiyuan Mall to see the night view of the bustling Bell Tower.
✔️Day2
Guangren Temple - Big Wild Goose Pagoda - Xiangzi Temple - Yongning Gate City Wall - Great Tang All Day Mall
Be sure to get up early to go to Guangren Temple to take pictures of the red walls and white pagoda, as there are not many people at this time.
Next, go to Joy City. You don't need to enter the Big Wild Goose Pagoda; you can take photos with the pagoda from outside.
After lunch, it is recommended to go back to the hotel to rest for a while, and then come out for a citywalk in the afternoon.
Citywalk route: Xiangzi Temple Street ➡️ Defu Lane ➡️ Shuyuanmen, the scenery along the way is beautiful, with ancient walls and old trees complementing each other, giving a strong sense of history.
There are many people at Yongning Gate City Wall, and it is very hot, so it is recommended to go later to watch the sunset from the city wall.
✔️Day3
Leisurely museum tour: Anrenfang Ruins Exhibition Hall and Shaanxi Art Museum
If you want to understand the history of the ancient capital Chang'an, you must not miss the museums.
We went to the Anrenfang Ruins Exhibition Hall and the Shaanxi Art Museum. Each museum has its own merits. Personally, I prefer Anrenfang, as it is very photogenic, and the design inside is great. If I have the chance, I would like to visit the Xi'an Museum next time. Remember to make reservations in advance for the museums.
About accommodation:
It is recommended to choose a hotel near the Bell Tower first, as it is very convenient to go to the attractions.
About food:
Lamb paomo, biangbiang noodles, oil-splashed noodles, roujiamo... There are really too many delicious foods in Shaanxi, and they are all quite heavy in flavor!
Thank you for reading, see you next time 👋🏻

Xiwu Tai is almost integrated with the residential area, now divided into three sections by the houses: the third and fifth platforms are independent.
Xiwu Tai Yunjusi is a monastery, not a tourist attraction

One of the world's eight wonders that you must see in Xi'an is the Terracotta Army
🏨 The Terracotta Army of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum
❤Recommended Reason:
When in Xi'an, everyone wants to see one of the world's eight wonders, the Terracotta Army. The talents from the south and the generals from the north, the yellow earth of Shaanxi buries the emperor. Just finished visiting the Museum of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses and here to share some tips!
🚉Transport Strategy:
Take the direct bus from the front of the Vienna Hotel near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which costs 30 RMB per person.
🗓Itinerary:
After the first ticket check to enter the Museum of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, there is an electric cart on the left-hand side (5 RMB/person), which I personally do not recommend as it requires waiting in a long line!
It takes about ten minutes to walk to the second ticket check. After passing the second check, you will directly reach the site of Pit No.1.
The last part of the route passes by the Mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang. Here you can only get off and not on. After getting off, you have to walk back to the entrance of the visitor center (the guide will also remind you).
Electric cart route:
Starting point → Acrobatic Figurines Pit (Exhibition Hall k9901) → Bronze Chariot and Horse Pit → Civil Official Figurines Pit (Exhibition Hall k0006) → Endpoint
After visiting the Terracotta Army, there is a long commercial street to walk down, which takes about 15 minutes. At the end is the statue of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and opposite the statue is the shuttle bus to Lishan Garden!
Suggested visiting order inside the museum: Pit No.1 — Pit No.3 — Pit No.2
Pit No.1: Quite spectacular and was the first to be discovered
Pit No.3: Smaller, serves as the command post
Pit No.2: Has a separate glass case displaying five representative terracotta warriors, including the 'Treasure of the Museum' - the kneeling archer that resembles the map of Shaanxi!
📝Note tips:
The purchased ticket includes a guided tour inside the museum. There are many 'bare-pole commanders' (unlicensed guides) at the entrance of the Terracotta Army, be careful to discern! There are no toilets inside the museum, make sure to use the toilet at the entrance!

In Xi'an | The only Chinese garden in the country that has free-range peacocks
|The only Chinese garden in the country that has free-range peacocks. It is located next to the Tang Dynasty Great Ci'en Temple, a ten-minute walk from the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, the Tang Paradise, and the Grand Tang Mall. The overall architectural style is that of a Chinese garden, designed by the famous architect Mr. Zhang Jinqiu. The garden features free-range peacocks and magpies, as well as pavilions, verandas, warm pavilions, stone bridges, and more, with clear ponds filled with swimming koi. Wearing traditional costumes for photos in the garden is especially striking, as if you were in the Tang Dynasty, with ginkgo, red maple, and willow branches creating a beautiful interplay of colors, and various plants displaying their most beautiful hues in autumn.
Despite being in the heart of Xi'an's core tourist area, the hotel environment is quiet and undisturbed, a true paradise of the prosperous Tang era. In the lobby, there is a bronze horse with colorful patterns, and the 'Flower Banquet of the Two Capitals' mural on the second floor is painted by the Japanese muralist Tamura Noriko. The scent of the environment is that of Chinese sandalwood, and the combination of artworks and murals is like a 'Tang Palace Gala' performance that has traveled through time. The shock brought by the lighting, arrangement, atmosphere, music, and fragrance is indescribable.
★The rooms are decorated in Chinese style, with dark wood furniture as the main feature, and the key decorative elements are Chang'an and ginkgo, allowing for garden views from the room. There is also a full set of tea utensils and tea leaves prepared for an immersive experience of ancient capital life. Service: As soon as you get off the car, there are waiters in Chinese clothing to take your luggage, and there are guides to the room. The check-in process is quick, and the service is very attentive.
The most surprising part of the trip to Xi'an was the Tanghua Huayi Hotel, which exceeded expectations. It was like traveling back to the Tang Dynasty for two days, healing the modern person's complicated life. I would choose this place again for my next trip to Xi'an.
Location: No. 40, Yanxi Road, Yanta District, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province
Price: 988-2688 yuan/night (The garden view deluxe suite is highly recommended, as the hotel's Chinese garden is beautiful all year round, and sitting on the balcony to enjoy the view and tea is a unique experience)

This hotel in Xi'an makes me want to stay 5678 times!!
Located in the Gaoxin District of Xi'an, the Hyatt Regency is only about 30 minutes by taxi from core attractions such as the Ming City Wall, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the Bell and Drum Towers, which is quite convenient!
The hotel is full of modern vibes, and when I enter, I can see an open-plan front desk. The lobby bar is also very tastefully designed, by the renowned architect Kengo Kuma.
I love the king-size bed room with its large glass windows. The room is spacious and bright, especially when the sun shines in, the warmth that comes through the blinds is just delightful!
The hotel's gym is well-equipped, and it's great to exercise there after waking up, starting the day full of energy!
The breakfast is also very rich, and you can even taste local specialties, such as Rou Jia Mo, Qishan Saozi noodles, etc., allowing you to feel the local culture of Xi'an without even leaving the hotel!
For dinner, try the hotel's specialty crayfish🦞, which are large in size and have a strong spicy flavor. They are also very clean, and once you start eating, you just can't stop!
Moreover, it's worth mentioning that the hotel has pet-friendly rooms, so it's very comfortable and reassuring to bring your beloved pets along!

Right below here is the Grand Tang Mall that never sleeps!!
When visiting Xi'an, promise me you must stay here. Just walk 1-2 minutes downstairs from the Hilton Garden Inn and you'll reach the Grand Tang Mall that never sleeps!! It's really so convenient!
The hotel is filled with orange elements, and the 'Xi'an' characters in the coffee area deeply touched my heart. The entire hotel incorporates elements of the Tang Dynasty such as tri-colored glazed pottery, Tang figurines, and paintings of court ladies, making it feel like I've traveled back to Chang'an!! Although it only has 5 floors, its location is superb! Especially for the young men and ladies who want to change into ancient costumes for photos, it's incredibly convenient!
Moreover, the hotel's breakfast and dinner are very rich, and you can also taste special snacks like Roujiamo, Biangbiang noodles, etc. Here, you can enjoy the delicious food while admiring the scenery of the Grand Tang Mall that never sleeps, feeling full of happiness!!
And the hotel's service is also really considerate and thoughtful. After my friend and I spent a day touring Xi'an, we returned to the hotel room exhausted, to be greeted with a 'Welcome back to Jia' fruit and nut platter. After taking a hot shower, using branded bath products, and lying on the soft and comfortable bed, it's just too cozy!

Have you ever heard of the legend of the blue sea, perhaps you also like the color blue, or maybe the mysterious allure of the underwater world is subtly captivating you.
In this scorching summer, carrying this sense of mystery, my friends and I plunged into the blue fairy tale world🌊
In this dreamy aquarium, I walked through the underwater tunnel, and the mermaid performance by Huang Xiaolu was absolutely stunning, so beautiful it was beyond control! The soft lines of her body attracted many spectators, and as she moved freely, I felt as if I saw the mermaid princess swimming slowly towards me. Closing my eyes, it was like seeing the portrayal of Shen Qing from the Korean drama 'The Legend of the Blue Sea', mysterious and enchanting😍 At that moment, I couldn't help but believe that mermaids really do exist in this world.
After watching the mermaid princess performance, we went to the 5D cinema, Children's Dream Park, Happy Coast, and the Amazing Polar Pavilion. In the Polar Pavilion, I saw cute little penguins running around, and also watched the marine animal show. Hehe, I even took a photo with a little shark through the glass, isn't that brave😉
Blue really has a healing power, it heals all unhappiness, all loneliness, because life is worth it, I want to accompany you to see the miles of the underwater world. Hurry up and bring your special someone, and explore the underwater world together~
