Operated by TWT Travel · Xi'an, Shaanxi
You step out of your hotel into Xi'an's morning air and the city feels like a layer of history waiting to be walked. Day one moves inland: a short drive brings you to the Terracotta Warriors, an underground army frozen mid-gesture, their individualized faces watching centuries of visitors. The site’s earth and tile give way to the broad sweep of the ancient City Wall and the compact energy of Muslim Street where spices and street vendors shape the city’s living story.
challenging.
2 days.
Moderate to fit — able to handle stair-heavy walking and short steep sections; basic stamina for all-day activity
Expect several hours of walking each day: a museum visit with paved routes on day one and several hours on steep, stepped trails at Huashan (cable car shortens ascents).
This private tour includes entrance fees and the round-trip cable car on Huashan as listed in the inclusions.
Not recommended for travelers with significant mobility, spinal, heart conditions, or pregnancy; children and elderly with good fitness may join but should consult the operator first.
Yes—if you prefer a full hike you can typically decline the cable car, but be prepared for a much longer, steeper ascent and inform your guide in advance.
Xi'an served as China’s imperial capital for several dynasties; the Terracotta Army was commissioned by Qin Shi Huang in the 3rd century BCE while Huashan has been a site of Daoist pilgrimage for over a millennium.
Heavy visitor numbers stress trails and sites; stick to marked paths, avoid touching artifacts, and use park facilities to reduce erosion and litter.
