Xi’an

A sense of the place.

01

Give the Terracotta Army its own substantial time slot.

02

Explore the old-city area at a gentler pace.

03

Discuss a food walk around tastes and dietary requirements.

Leave a little time to explore.

1 day

Choose the Terracotta Army as the main visit and keep the evening optional.

2 days

Add old-city sights and time to explore the food streets.

3 days

Leave room for a museum, a slower neighbourhood route or rest.

A few practical thoughts.

Getting around

The Terracotta Army is outside the central old-city area. Confirm round-trip transfers and ticket arrangements separately from city walks.

When to go

Summer heat and busy visitor periods can affect the pace; build in water and rest breaks.

Your pace

A wall walk or ride is optional. Food experiences require advance discussion of allergies and preferences.

A little closer to local life.
