AM: At 09:00, our tour guide and driver will meet you at your downtown hotel. First, we will go to visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. The pagoda was originally built in the early Tang Dynasty (618-907) to keep the Buddhist sutra and statues brought back from ancient India by Mater Xuanzang. Now the Big Wild Goose Pagoda area is a popular amusement place among local people. Afterward, we will head to Xian Museum (closed on each Tue.) to learn about the city’s history and appreciate some exquisite relics unearthed in local area.

Noon: Lunch will be at your own expense (please feel free to ask your guide for suggestions)

PM: After lunch, we will move on to Xian City Wall. This 600-year-old city wall is the largest and most completely preserved ancient military system in China. Bike and battery car are available on the City Wall and they are optional (cost on your own). After descending from the City Wall, we will walk through Muslim Quarter to visit the Great Mosque. The Muslim Quarter is the best known food street in Xian where you can optionally try local Xian food. And the Great Mosque at the end of the Muslim Quarter built in Chinese style is the largest gathering place of Muslims living in Xian.

After the tour ends, you will be escorted back to your hotel at about 18:00.
