Top Xi’an Attractions: Best Places to Visit in Xi’an

Xi’an is the capital city with the most dynasties in China. History has left so many treasures for Xi’an that it seems every old alley, every brick of the city wall, and every piece of house tile can make people travel back in time. Xi’an’s attractions are mostly historical monuments, and the City Wall, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and Bell (Drum) Tower in the urban area are not to be missed. Outside the city, the Terracotta Warriors and Mount Huashan are the most classic attractions. If you have more time, you can explore more of the hidden gems in Xi’an.
