I am also going to Xi’an in June. I hope the information collected in the past few days will be useful to the poster.
Xi'an is really a good city and I'm looking forward to it~~~~
Xi'an: The Hui people are very sensitive to pigs. Pay attention to respecting nationality and religion.
Let me tell you some things to pay attention to when coming to Xi'an. 1. It is best not to eat the roasted gluten in the poster (from a hygienic point of view); 2. If the vendors only have numerals and no quantifiers, most of them are digging holes; 3. There are many one-way streets in Xi'an, both for going and returning. Taxi prices often vary, which is not a rip-off. This is a fact. 4. Foreign friends who use annual passes should note that the Lishan Scenic Area has been strictly controlled recently, and it is difficult to use it without some certificates from Shaanxi. However, overall it is still a good deal.
A reminder to friends who are about to come to Xi'an, it is still a good deal to buy an annual tourist ticket of 68 yuan. The ticket price for the city wall alone and the Bell Tower and Drum Tower alone is 80 yuan, but you must pay attention. : To use the annual pass to go up to the city wall, you must enter the city from the four gates: the South Gate, the East Gate, the North Gate, and the West Gate. There are 10 entrances to the city in the whole city, but only these four can use the annual pass. The others There is no annual card machine at the door. In the past, we could still be accommodating. But now that the city's monitoring system is online, no one dares to pass people in violation of regulations. Please remember this to avoid taking the wrong path.
Terracotta Warriors, Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor and Huaqing Pool. Take 611 at the Bell Tower and go back to the train station. Take 915, 914 or Tour 5 at the train station (East Square, in front of the train station ticket gate) to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. Do not take the tourist bus in the square. They are lying. From the Terracotta Warriors and Horses to Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum, from Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum to Huaqing Pool, the cheapest price for bathing is equivalent to a public bath. If you still have time to go to Lishan Mountain. Don’t go to other places such as Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum, Underground Palace, Eight Wonders, etc. They are all artificial scenery. After visiting Huaqing Pool, take a bus back to Xi'an. Note: Be careful of being ripped off when eating in Lintong. Check the menu prices before eating. The main attractions in Huaqing Pool are: Imperial Concubine Pool, Five Halls and Bingjian Pavilion. From the train station, we took a 9-minute tour of the Eastern Route, including the Terracotta Warriors, Huaqing Pool, Bingjian Pavilion, Underground Palace, and Lishan Mountain. This is a state-owned bus. It is best not to be a private minibus because it has too many things to do. When you arrive at a scenic spot, you get off, and after shopping, you wait for the bus to go to the next one. The bus leaves every 5 minutes, so don't worry about running out of buses. When entering the Tangming Palace, be careful and be sure to follow the tour guide. The tour guide will dig holes for you to buy incense for 260 yuan. After asking for a free signature, you can ask for a "mascot" (400-8000), and then you have to pay the incense money equivalent to the mascot.
Provincial Museum, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Han Kiln, Qujiang Park, Tang Furong Garden, Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square 1. The Provincial Museum is now free. It is recommended to go to the Provincial Expo first because the Provincial Expo is now free but not free (bring a valid ID to get the ticket). There are more people visiting every day, so you have to go early, and the queue time to get tickets is relatively long. Transfer to 606 at Bell Tower, go to Heping Arch, take bus 5, 30, 8 (610), and get off at Cuihua Road (pay a 1 yuan coin). . Route 5 and Route 30 are shorter. You can see Shaanxi Expo when you get off the bus; 2. After visiting Shaanxi Expo, take the bus on Cuihua Road and get off at the South Square of Dayan Pagoda. There are many buses. You can take a minibus, which costs 0.5 yuan, or a big bus, which costs 0.5 yuan. The nearest one is Route 701 outside the east wall of Shaanbo. Enter the Big Wild Goose Pagoda; 3. After visiting the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, take bus 715 at the South Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to Chunlin Village and go to Hanyao (where Wang Baochuan and other Xue Rengui lived for eighteen years); 4. After visiting the Hanyao Pagoda, go to Chunlin Take Route 715 from the village and get off at Qujiangchi Heritage Park. Visit Qujiangchi Heritage Park; 5. After visiting Qujiangchi Heritage Park, take bus 715 at Qujiangchi Heritage Park and go under the south gate of Tang Furong Garden (or walk from Qujiang Park to Tang Furong Garden, it’s very close. Less than 1 stop away), enter the Tang Furong Garden; 6. After visiting the Tang Furong Garden, go out from the north gate of the Tang Furong Garden and go to the North Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to see the musical fountain (the musical fountain in the North Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is the largest in Asia Musical fountain. The best thing to watch is the one at 8:30 pm, with music and lights).
Weiyang Lake is actually an artificial lake. There is a bungee jumping platform and a jet ski. There are not many attractions to miss. Because the Tang Furong Garden has been arranged before, Weiyang Lake cannot be mentioned at all except those two entertainment projects.

After visiting the Drum Tower, you can enter Hui Street from the Drum Tower. Where is the most comprehensive place for Muslim snacks in Xi'an
Recommended route, the first day, Terracotta Warriors and Horses - Huaqing Pool, (many routes include Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum in the middle, I firmly deny it, it makes no sense, it is just a dirt slope up A shabby one called a museum, with a simulated underground palace inside, and admission fees. Basically, my dad and his company never go there when entertaining guests. They just mention it when driving by.) If you travel by bus If so, it’s probably just one day. When I get back at 5 or 6 p.m., I’ll go to Huimin Street to eat something (it’s best to bring your own biscuits for lunch, don’t eat them at the farmers’ houses there, they’re expensive and not delicious)
The next day, we visited the city wall (you can ride a bicycle~it takes about more than an hour a week to visit the city wall~). After coming down from the south gate of the city wall, you went directly to the academy gate, which was antique, and then went In the Forest of Steles, go to the Bell and Drum Tower in the evening to see the night view. The night view of the four streets in the east, west, south and north is quite good. It only takes five minutes to get back to the hotel after coming down from the Drum Tower! That's almost the day.
On the third day, Shaanxi Provincial Museum~~ (You must go early when going to the provincial museum. I thought that tickets could be distributed at any time. However, the first time I went in the afternoon, the tickets were all gone. Then there were no more people who went there at 10 a.m. the next day. In the end, we were so angry that we ran away after 7 a.m. Fortunately, basically I think we have to queue up at 8 a.m.), and those who finished transferring to the Provincial Expo went directly to Dayan The pagoda is only two stops away and is very close. (However, since the Big Wild Goose Pagoda was crooked by the earthquake last year, it is no longer possible to go up to the tower. It is a pity.) The Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square is also pretty good, with a musical fountain
< p>The first day: Datang Furong Garden (50 yuan ticket) + Big Wild Goose Pagoda (20 yuan ticket + 25 yuan to climb the tower)The second day: Banpo Ruins, Huaqing Pool, Terracotta Warriors and Horses (usual prices They are: 18 yuan for the museum, 25 yuan for the clan museum; 45 yuan for the Huaqing Pool, 90 yuan for the Terracotta Warriors and Horses). It is estimated that the price will increase during the peak season!
The third day: Bell Tower, Drum Tower + Hui Snack Street + Shaanxi History Museum
1. Gaojia Chicken Soup - near Xianyang Airport, a friend drove there, the specific location is here I can't explain, the chicken soup is very original and fresh, and the baked bread there (may not be called that) is eaten with chili sauce, very fragrant!
2. Fenxiang - Spicy Noodles. Fenxiang is right next to Zhuba City. There are many small bars there where you can go and have a drink at night. I accidentally discovered three bar streets in Xi'an, one in Zhuba City, one within the south gate of the city wall, and one on the road to the west gate of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
3. The "Xifu Cuisine" next to the Provincial Government in Xincheng Square, which uses rolled dough, vinegar powder and chili, is said to be delicious. It is right next to our hotel, but now it is closed for renovation!
4. Xuejia Liangpi at Qinzhen Bridge. There is a long-distance bus to Hu County at Chengnan Passenger Station. It takes 40 minutes to get off at Qinzhen Bridge. Unless they are top foodies, few people would go so far to eat.
5. Don’t eat it – Dumpling Banquet, Lao Sun’s House, Xi’an Restaurant, etc.! !
Mirror Cake: The one you said doesn’t taste like roses. Diagonally across from the handmade ginger soup in Xiyang City, there is a “Ma Lin Cartoon Mirror Cake”. The owner can draw cartoon characters on the mirror cake. . Just draw whatever you want. . .
Xiao Chao: The first bowl in Shaanxi was okay, but there is a restaurant on the street opposite Liu Jixiao that is even more amazing. . .
Preserved beef and mutton: There is a "Sunqing Hainiu and Mutton" in the middle of Dapiyuan. . I basically buy it there. . .
Fried rice with red sauerkraut: It was a roadside stall 10 years ago, and the boss personally served it. It’s delicious. . Now. . . Why. . .
Eight-treasure rice porridge: The eight-treasure rice porridge of Jia San Guan Tang Bao is very average. . The best thing to drink is the "Xiao Jia Sweets" diagonally behind the Musa Casserole in Dapiyuan. . . tasty. . .
Mutton Soaked: Many people know this. Lao Mijia in Xiyang City is best to go in the morning. If you go late, you won’t get anything. I recommend their oil-soaked radish, which is delicious! If you like stir-fried dishes, go to Shaanxi First Bowl nearby. Many celebrities from Shaanxi also like to go to these two houses, and they have to queue up to wait for a seat when playing cards, haha
Zummi Pork: Any one in Dapiyuan or Xiyang City will be fine, it’s not much different
Zeng Cake: Made of glutinous rice and candied dates, it is delicious. The most famous one is the one at the west entrance of Xiyang City, which is known as "Best Selling in Southeast Asia". It is a very big brand. When buying, don't pick the top layer of each pot. It is not good. eat.
Soup dumplings: There is no doubt about Jia San’s, but if you have to go to an old restaurant in Xiyang City to eat, the environment may not be as good as the new one in Gulou, but the steamed buns are more authentic and taste better than those in Gulou. Much more.
Meatball stew: You can try the ones from Qiaozikou and Xiyang City, but you may not be used to the butter flavor in them.
Small crispy pork and braised chicken: the ones from Qiaozikou are good, and the small crispy pork from Dingjia in Dapiyuan is also good, but it is a bit greasy for outsiders
Barbecue: This varies from person to person because everyone has different tastes. As long as it’s not from Dapiyuankou or Gulou, it probably won’t taste bad. You can tell the stall owner your preferences and tastes.
Mala Tang: "Lao Huifang" in Dapiyuan, the dipping sauce tastes good, and the dishes are large and fresh.
Preserved Beef and Mutton: I don’t understand why Liu Jixiao’s business in Xiyang City is so good nowadays. When holidays come, there are always queues of people. His meat was very classic a few years ago. , as it has become famous over the years, it has become a big name, but the key meat is not that good. I recommend Sun Family and Tie Family from Dapiyuan, both are Niu Jian, very good
