Tailor your two-day itinerary to align with your specific preferences among six pre-selected attractions. Our personalized guide will lead you through each site, accompanied by complimentary entrance tickets, a local lunch, and airport transfers. The exception is the accommodation details.
Please select three attractions based on your preferences from the following five itinerary options:
Day 1:
1. Museum of Qin Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses: This iconic attraction offers an immersive experience of over 700 warriors and horses crafted from terracotta. The guided tour includes visits to Pit 1, Pit 2, and Pit 3, followed by the magnificent bronze chariots exhibition, conducted entirely away from any tourist stops.
2. Big Wild Goose Pagoda (Dayanta): Considered one of Xi'an’s most significant historical landmarks, this ancient pagoda narrates tales of Silk Road significance and Buddhism. Your guide explains its unique leanings and their historical context, revealing insights into Tang dynasty architecture and cultural practices.
3. Muslim Quarter: Visit the bustling Muslim Market (also known as Muslim Street), renowned for its authentic Chinese-style halal cuisine. Enjoy a leisurely exploration of various stalls offering delicacies such as skewered meat, sticky rice, fruit ice creams, and nuts candies. This area can be explored at your own pace, lasting approximately 1 hour or more depending on your appetite.
4. Banpo Museum: Delve into the rich heritage of Neolithic era settlements in Xi'an. Discover the daily life of a matriarchal clan spanning 6,000 years ago, divided into three distinct sections—living houses, burial sites, and pottery kilns.

3. Bell Tower (Dinghong): Located in the heart of Xi'an, this iconic landmark is easily accessible via foot or bicycle. From the summit, you’ll capture panoramic views of the entire city and experience a brief performance of bells and drums, complemented by exhibits showcasing Ming and Qing Dynasty furniture.
