Experiencing the Historic Charm of Xi’an

#holidayitinerary Exploring Xi’an in Shaanxi Province is like walking through the pages of Chinese history while still enjoying a lively modern city. Known as the starting point of the Silk Road, Xi’an is packed with fascinating sights and cultural gems. I loved starting at the ancient City Wall, where you can walk or bike along the top and take in views of both traditional rooftops and modern streets. The Muslim Quarter was another highlight, with its vibrant mix of street food, shops, and the aroma of freshly grilled skewers filling the air. Of course, no trip to Xi’an feels complete without visiting the Terracotta Army, which is every bit as impressive as its legend. Between the temples, bustling markets, and peaceful parks, there is always something to see or taste. Xi’an has this perfect blend of old and new, where history feels alive and the city’s energy keeps you exploring. It is a place that truly leaves a lasting impression.
