Looking for a self-guided tour guide to Xi'an

Day 1 (2nd): Shaanxi Provincial History Museum, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Musical Fountain in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

1. It is recommended to go to the Shaanxi Provincial History Museum first, because the Shaanxi Provincial History Museum is now free but not free (bring a valid ID to get the ticket). Tickets are only issued four times a day, so go early, otherwise, the queue for tickets will be long. After arriving in Xi'an at noon, take bus 5, bus 30, bus 6, bus 8 (610) at the train station and get off at Cuihua Road.

Let me tell you a secret, if there are too many people, you can pay 20 yuan to buy a ticket for the fourth exhibition hall ("The Heritage of the Tang Dynasty" Hejiacun Gold and Silver Special Exhibition), which is not open to the public for free. Note: You need to buy it at the ticket window. There are ticket sellers selling fake tickets at a high price of 100 yuan. Tickets can be entered at any time.

2. After visiting Shaanxi Expo, you can take the bus to the South Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and enter the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
