Xi'an

Planning a Xi’an stop usually begins with two questions: how the city fits into a wider China route and which heritage visits deserve your limited time. If you are connecting Xi’an with Beijing and Shanghai, start with the seven-day Golden Triangle or ten-day first-time itinerary. For time in the city, use the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda guide, then open the Qin bronze chariots guide for a focused visit within the Terracotta Army museum complex. The four published guides below cover route planning and two heritage experiences; they do not yet provide complete airport, hotel, food or neighborhood coverage. Compare China destinations if you are still choosing cities. Check official attraction information before departure because ticketing and visitor arrangements may change.
