Xi'an travel arrangements

Xi'an has been one of the cities with the highest temperatures in the country in recent years. There are many weather conditions with temperatures between 35 and 40 degrees Celsius in July and August, so be careful and choose air-conditioned accommodation.

If your financial situation is not very good, I suggest you spend two more days in the city, and then go to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. Other places are expensive and tiring, and it is not interesting. The tourist attractions in Shaanxi are... It is mainly about history and culture, not much natural scenery. The total cost of tourist attractions is 300 yuan and you can only go to these few places. It would be best if you can go to Huashan.

Accommodation: Accommodation is not expensive when you come to Xi'an at this time. Double-standard rooms in the streets are 100 yuan. I recommend two places for you. Double-standard rooms in Hongdu Hotel on Dongyi Road are 100 yuan. At the Dianjian Hotel on Changle Road, you can choose between a triple room for 30 yuan per person and a double room for 100 yuan. These two places are just steps away from public transportation and both are downtown areas.

The itinerary is as follows:

D1: Go to the train station in the morning and take bus No. 306 (Travel 5) directly to Lintong Terracotta Warriors and Horses (ask the hotel staff, they will tell you where to take the bus) ) Visit Huaqing Pool, Lishan Mountain, Terracotta Warriors and Horses. I advise you not to go to the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, because it is man-made. Lishan is more time-consuming. To be honest, the people above are famous for catching Jiang Ting. It depends on your interest. Not going to Lishan can save you several hours. If you don’t go to Lishan Mountain, you can return to the Tang Dynasty Furong Garden at 16:00 (this place is good, more than one billion yuan is spent there) or visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square. The Tang Dynasty Furong Garden has a float parade and water screen movie at 9 p.m. . (The paradox is that the musical fountain in the North Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is at 18:00 pm and 21:00 pm, it depends on how you arrange it)

D2: The Bell and Drum Towers and the Ming City Wall are both in the city, you can still do it after the tour Go to the food streets near Fenxiang and Dapiyuan to look for Shaanxi snacks. It is recommended that you ask the hotel staff. They will tell you how to get there, what is delicious, and what you can buy and take back. Don’t forget the snacks. Give them a small bribe, a small piece of chewing gum is enough). Go to the History Museum in the afternoon (the History Museum is free now, but...you need to get up at 6 a.m. to queue up to get tickets. Personally, I think that place is worth a visit, so think about it yourself). 1,000 meters east of the History Museum is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square area. It’s great to visit Ci’en Temple and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Eat nearby and then watch the musical fountain at Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square in the evening. There is a Peking duck restaurant in the northwest corner of the square. If you find a good seat on the second floor, you can only see the fountain, so you can eat and enjoy the scenery.

D3: In the morning, you can go to the newly built Qujiangnan Lake. Although it is a man-made natural landscape, it is really good. Go to Qujiang Aquarium in the afternoon. You decide for yourself. At 6 p.m., we rushed to the Chengdong Passenger Terminal (east of Light Industry) and took the direct bus to Huashan (Xi'an to Huayin). We arrived at Huashan at 8 p.m. After resting, we started climbing at 22 p.m. If you don’t want to go up the mountain at night, stay in Xi’an and go to Huashan tomorrow morning.

D4: Get up early at 6 o'clock and rush to the Chengdong Passenger Station (east of Light Industry) to take the direct bus to Huashan (Xi'an to Huayin). Arrive at Huashan at 8 o'clock, and then start climbing. If you are in good physical condition, it is not recommended to go up the mountain and take the cable car. (The best scenery in Huashan Mountain is on the mountain road and the west and south peaks. If you are a northerner and don't care about watching the sunrise, you can go down the mountain directly. It is estimated that you can get on the shuttle bus back to Xi'an before 5 o'clock. If you must If you want to see the sunrise, visit the peaks and stay on the mountain. Get up early at 6 o'clock to watch the sunrise, and then go down the mountain. (1) Take the cable car down the mountain. 2. There is a step down the mountain where you take the cable car. There are 3999 steps. It is recommended that you go down. You are not very tired after sleeping all night.) You can return to Xi'an on the same day. You can take the bus directly to Huashan Railway Station or take the bus back to Xi'an at 3-4pm. Went down the mountain and took the bus back to Xi'an.

Notes for climbing Huashan: Arrive at Chengdong Passenger Station next to Xi'an Light Industry around 18:00 and take the passenger shuttle bus to Huayin (fare 28 yuan + station fee 1.5 yuan). +Fuel fee is 2 yuan) You can take the bus directly to Huashan Pass around 20 o'clock. The entrance fee is 100 yuan, and the student ticket is 60 yuan. You can get delicious drinks (3~4 bottles of purified water + ham + mustard + chocolate per person). To replenish energy, water, and salt, it is economical and filling), it is best to wear a pair of hiking shoes (Pathfinder Ozark and Colombia are fine), gloves and flashlights (LED flashlights are best), and wear long clothes and pants when going up the mountain at night. When you go to Dongfeng to watch the sunrise, you need to rent a military coat (20 yuan). If you are young, have good physical strength, and exercise regularly, you can go down the mountain by cableway at 3 or 4 pm, which costs 60 yuan one way.

(There is a step road going down the mountain near the ropeway, with 3999 steps. It takes men about an hour and a half to go down the mountain.) You can also catch the high-speed bus back to Xi'an (the fare is 30 yuan). But if you have a girl dream If so, it will probably be dark next to you. If you are not young and strong enough to stay up late, I advise you not to go up the mountain at night. It is just to watch the sunrise. You stay up all night and then exercise vigorously. There are endless steps under your feet. Think about it for yourself! It really depends on whether you go up to the mountain and stay one night during the day. Accommodation on the mountain in Datongpu is 30-80 yuan per person, and the standard room is at least 200.

I don’t recommend mausoleums, tombs, etc., they are boring, Famen Temple is It is a museum with some cultural relics inside. Qianling and Zhaoling are not fully developed yet, and it is too far away from Xi'an. The time and money will make you think it is not worthwhile to go.
