Xi'an

This guide contains advice for visiting the main sites of Shaanxi, the central region of China, known above all for its capital Xi’An, the ancient Chinese capital.

Lo Shaanxi (not to be confused with Shanxi) is an extensive region, but the recommended sites are in the areas around Xi’An, where the majority of tourists are concentrated: rather, a multitude, considering that this city is the second most-visited place in China.

Xi’An is rich in archaeology, which you can’t ignore if you come here. OK, there there’s Hua Shan, one of the five sacred Chinese mountains, to add a touch of sport and challenge to sentimental trips.

In this guide you can find information about:

  • The city of Xi’An;
  • The Terracotta Army:
  • The tomb of Emperor Jingdi (or sunkem museum of Han Yangling) and surrounding archaeological sites: the tomb of Qian Ling and the Famen Temple;
  • Mount Hua (or Hua Shan);
  • Hancheng and the village of Dangjiacun, Yan’an.
