Xi’an
2 nights · Inside the South Gate
Walk to the city wall and keep evening food wanderings close to the hotel.
Xi’an · 2 nightsXi’an: walls, warriors and a proper food wander
Three days that let the Terracotta Army be the main event without losing the old city.
Why this itinerary works
Walk the city wall and central streets after settling in, then keep the warrior outing on a separate day.
The final morning stays local; this short version leaves out another distant excursion.
Two nights keep the stay compact. If you arrive late, trim the first afternoon and head straight out for dinner.
