Activity itinerary

Xi'an City Wall (Chengqiang)

  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
Start your day with a walk along the well-preserved Xi’an City Wall near the South Gate. As we stroll at a relaxed pace, your guide will bring the city’s ancient history to life through engaging stories—going beyond dates and facts to explain how Xi’an became the capital of multiple dynasties. You’ll also have time to take photos, enjoy panoramic views of the old and new city, and get a sense of Xi’an’s unique layout.

Yongxing Fang

  • 2h
Around lunchtime, we head to Yongxing Fang, a lively food district where you can explore a variety of local snacks from Shaanxi province. Your guide will introduce the stories behind the dishes, explain what locals actually eat, and help you choose authentic options. Depending on your preferences, we may also explore nearby smaller eateries to avoid overly touristy spots. This is more than just eating—it’s a chance to understand Xi’an’s food culture and daily life.

Shuyuanmen

  • 1h
In the afternoon, enjoy a relaxed walk through Shuyuanmen Cultural Street, known for its traditional architecture, calligraphy shops, and artistic atmosphere. This area offers a quieter and more cultural side of Xi’an, where you can see local artisans at work, browse unique souvenirs, and learn about Chinese calligraphy and traditional aesthetics. We’ll take our time here, with opportunities to explore at your own pace.

Defu Alley

  • 1h
Continue with a gentle city walk through nearby local streets and areas. This part of the experience is flexible and tailored to your interests. We may stop at a cosy café to take a break, chat about life in China, and enjoy a slower moment in the day. This is where the experience feels less like a tour and more like exploring the city with a local friend.

Xi'an Bell Tower

  • 1h
End the day near the iconic Bell Tower, one of Xi’an’s most recognisable landmarks. As the city lights come on, the area transforms into a vibrant and lively space. Take in the night views, capture photos, and enjoy the atmosphere as your guide shares final insights about the city.
