Is it easy to get a taxi in Xi'an? Is transportation in Xi'an convenient?

Everyone knows that it is not easy to take a taxi in many cities, especially those big cities, but sometimes you can’t leave. In this article, the editor will tell you about taxis in Xi’an Is it easy to drive a car? Come and find out.

Having been in Xi'an for many years, I have to say that the taxi industry in Xi'an is very irregular. If you pick up a taxi on the road, they won't go here or there, or they will always be on duty and don't know where they can go or how they usually make money.

The funniest thing is that once I stopped a car and the driver talked to me, I usually pick up places I know, but I don’t pick up places I don’t know, and I don’t pick up where you want to go. I know it, but it’s okay if you know it. Fortunately, I am considered a native of Xi’an. But if tourists encounter such a driver, the experience can be imagined.

The driver never asks for your opinion when carpooling. When he sees someone waving at the roadside, he will stop and ask as long as there is room in the car. Once, I took a taxi from the train station and took three people along the way. The directions were different. Two of us went to the western suburbs, and I went to the eastern suburbs. It was amazing!

Last year I didn’t know that the year before last, due to the Internet, The popularity of ride-hailing has taken away the taxi business, and Xi'an taxis went on strike. No one around me sympathized with them, and they all said they deserved it. Here are two suggestions for traveling in Xi’an.

1. Try to use Didi to take taxis. This is trustworthy, although the price advantage is not obvious now.

2. If you really need to use a taxi, get in the car first and then mention your destination. The possibility of refusing to take you is lower. Don't ask outside the car window, master, if xx is going. This will probably mean "No, I'll take over" (it feels like it has become a mantra). Where is the best place to stay?

If you go to the North Railway Station, it is recommended to take the subway to the Bell Tower. If you live in the Bell Tower, of course it is best. If not, then come down and take a taxi or take the bus; as for the train station, it is actually not bad, because there are Of course, it depends on the luck of the host at the dedicated taxi pick-up point. Generally speaking, you can queue up to get a seat. Of course, if you are unlucky and all the taxis have left and the empty taxi has not arrived, you will have to continue waiting; at the airport, , take the airport bus to the entrance of Bell Tower Royalton Hotel, and walk back to Zhubashikou (just below Yintai Mall, where a ZARA is very conspicuous, and across the road from McDonald's in Gulou). If you are lucky, there will be some taxis waiting around the corner. You can take a taxi (because the Bell Tower restricts the movement of cars, including taxis, from west to east, many people who take taxis to the Bell Tower will get off here, and there will be some empty cars leaving the city from this intersection).

Taking a taxi in Xi'an is not very convenient, especially during rush hours. In fact, there are a lot of cars, but they are all blocked on the road. If the taxi drivers deliver the taxi at 4 to 5 p.m., if you can successfully get a taxi, it will be a huge explosion of character. You can really buy lottery tickets. .

It is recommended to sit down and do your homework in advance. In fact, many scenic spots, such as the Bell and Drum Tower, Big and Small Wild Goose Pagodas (Da Ci'en Temple), including Lintong Huaqing Pool and Terracotta Warriors, have many bus lines. You may wish to post your itinerary so that we can help you plan an economical and reasonable route. For example, if you come down from the train station and stay at the clock tower, there is no need to take a taxi. There are plenty of public buses for one dollar.
