Spring Festival Xi'an Travel Guide

Spring Festival Xi'an Travel Guide 6️⃣ can't miss night view shooting spots Xi'an's lights are really beautiful! The slogan 'Xi'an Year, Most China' is the most domineering and true I've ever heard. 🌟Itinerary 4 days and 3 nights, if 5 days can go to Huashan (😝Follow me~ I will write about Huashan's niche shooting spots later) It is recommended to stay in a hotel near the Bell Tower for convenient transportation 🌵DAY 1️⃣ Morning High-speed rail/airplane arrives in Xi'an Afternoon Muslim Street/City Wall Stroll and eat Evening Bell Tower Night View 🌵DAY 2️⃣ Huaqing Palace & Terracotta Warriors Day Tour Huaqing Palace and Terracotta Warriors are not far apart, they are in the same direction and it's just right to visit 2 places in one day ❗️Tips1 There are many people during the Spring Festival, it is recommended to go to the Terracotta Warriors in the morning, Huaqing Palace in the afternoon, it is best to enter the Terracotta Warriors at 8:30 in the morning when the door opens. If there are 3-4 people, it is recommended to take a Didi directly, about 50 minutes and 80 yuan, which is not much more expensive than the bus. If you can't catch up in the morning, it's best to go in at noon, when the tour groups go to eat and there are relatively fewer people ❗️Tips2 There are many people at the Terracotta Warriors and Huaqing Palace asking if you need a guide, I suggest hiring a guide at the Terracotta Warriors, but remember to hire one at the guide counter inside the scenic area, the price is the same but they are more professional than those soliciting customers on the roadside. It's okay not to hire one at Huaqing Palace, there are just a few pools, and there are explanations 🌵DAY3️⃣ Morning Shaanxi Provincial Museum Afternoon SEG Shopping Center Evening Big Wild Goose Pagoda/Datang Everbright City ❗️Tips1 Shaanxi Museum is free but requires a reservation! Book 7 days in advance on the official website sxhm! Plan ahead for the Spring Festival and book as early as possible to avoid not getting a ticket ❗️Tips2 SEG is right next to the Shaanxi Museum, you can go to eat and rest after visiting the museum, and you can also check in at Asia's longest indoor escalator~ spanning 6 floors! ❗️Tips3 The Big Wild Goose Pagoda fountain is the largest fountain in Asia! It looks better at night than during the day, there are four shows every day at 12:00, 16:00, 19:00, 21:00, there are many people so it is recommended to grab a spot 10 minutes in advance for good photos ❗️Tips4 From January 1st to February 9th, the first three fountain shows are the regular version 'Return to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda', and the 21:00 show is the festival special edition 'Return to Chang'an for the New Year'. If you have time, you can watch 2 shows 🌵DAY4️⃣ Morning Yongxingfang Afternoon High-speed rail/airplane leaves Xi'an 🔥🔥🔥 Key point Xi'an Spring Festival's 6 must-see night view shooting spots! 1️⃣Bell Tower It is recommended to shoot at the turning point of North Street and East Street, you can take a photo with the New Year's lights & Bell Tower 2️⃣Fountain The night fountain has a festival special edition, great for photos!
