This guide is packed with valuable tips! 📅 Itinerary Highlights: Walk 3 kilometers on the city wall and catch the most beautiful sunset✨ The Big Wild Goose Pagoda fountain night show is stunning💥 Eat at 20 different stalls on Muslim Street without repeating🍢 DAY 1: City Wall Walking Plan 📍Xi'an City Wall (enter from Yongning Gate) It’s recommended to rent a bike to tour around; 3 kilometers one way just reaches Zhongshan Gate, a perfect spot for sunset photos!
🍜 Lunch: Dongmutoushi Qin-Yu Roujiamo (10-minute walk inside the city wall)
📍Beilin Museum (15-minute walk) A paradise for calligraphy lovers, remember to ask the guide to unlock hidden stories
📍Bell and Drum Towers Night View (directly accessible by Metro Line 2) The lights turn on at 8 PM, instantly creating a dreamy atmosphere. The west side steps of the square are the best photo spots. DAY 2: Carb Bomb Day 📍Sajin Bridge (rush there at 7 AM) Old Li’s Mingming Spicy Soup with Cured Beef Roujiamo is unbeatable
📍Shaanxi History Museum (book 3 days in advance) Must-see: the Gilded Dancing Horse with Cup in Mouth, the electronic guide is more detailed than a human guide
📍Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square Arrive half an hour early for the 7 PM music fountain show, selfie sticks recommended
🍲 Dinner: Zhang Ji on Ziwu Road (must order the three-piece set: cold noodles + roujiamo + Ice Peak soda) DAY 3: Time Travel to the Terracotta Warriors 🚌 Tourist shuttle bus directly to the Terracotta Warriors Be sure to follow the official guide! Independent guides love to make up stories
📍Huaqing Palace "Song of Everlasting Regret" performance Buy tickets for the middle section for the best visual effect, bring a jacket as it gets cold at night
🍡 Late-night snack: Honghong Sauerkraut Fried Rice (a long-established Muslim Street stall) 💡 Local Insider Tips: • Use the "Chang'an Tong" mini program to scan the metro code directly
• The Buddha Eye on the outer wall of Guangren Temple is trending recently
• Buying cultural and creative products at Shuyuanmen is half the price of the scenic area ⚠️ Avoid These Pitfalls: Don’t buy Lantian jade at the Terracotta Warriors entrance!
Yongxingfang’s bowl-breaking wine has become tourist-only
Don’t go to the "authentic cave dwellings" recommended by taxi drivers 🍽️ Food Recommendations: Mahong Small Stir-fry Paomo Restaurant (the soul is in tearing your own bread)
Liu Jixiao Cured Beef and Mutton (vacuum-packed makes a great souvenir)
Huanainai Sour Plum Soup (must try the double-flavor) 🏨 Accommodation Recommendations: Staying near Bell Tower Metro Station is convenient for everywhere, recommended to stay at a homestay offering Hanfu experience
