Xi'an Current Situation! Sisters planning to travel during May Day, take advice!

1️⃣Xi'an is suitable for a 4-5 day itinerary, you can visit Mount Hua, and there's no need to rush like special forces, 【no need to join a tour group】. Xi'an's tourism is quite mature, and the money for a tour group can be spent on hiring a good guide multiple times. 2️⃣It's more appropriate to carpool to the Terracotta Warriors due to the crowds. Heed the advice to grab tickets online in advance, bring your ID, and first visit 【Lishan Garden】. The ticket for the Terracotta Warriors includes Lishan Garden, which is not the same as Lishan, two completely different places, 2 kilometers away from the Terracotta Warriors. It's the excavation site of the bronze chariots and horses, and you need to buy a sightseeing car ticket for 15 yuan per person. Fewer people there, and after visiting, head to the Terracotta Warriors around 1 pm, where there's a free shuttle bus. 3️⃣The 【Terracotta Warriors】 site will be extremely crowded. Don't worry about which pit number, they're all crowded. The lighting inside is dim, and the signal is poor, so there's no need to look for explanations on Bilibili as you won't be able to open them. It's recommended to find a human guide, who usually provides headphones, and it's basically impossible to eavesdrop. Definitely find a guide, as the historical stories are more interesting. 4️⃣Performances at 【Da Tang Everbright City】 are timed, and I couldn't squeeze in, really couldn't! It's not recommended to go to the Everbright City at night in fancy dress, as it's crowded and you might step on your dress. 5️⃣The steles in the 【Stele Forest Museum】 are currently under repair and not visible, so keep an eye on their official WeChat account for the latest news. 6️⃣【Terracotta Warriors-Huaqing Pool-The Song of Everlasting Sorrow】 are close to each other and should be arranged on the same day. However, if time is limited, it's suggested to skip Huaqing Pool, but 【The Song of Everlasting Sorrow】 is a must-see. 7️⃣You must book in advance for 【Shaanxi History Museum】. If you can't get a reservation, keep refreshing to see if there are any cancellations on the day. It's very worthwhile, especially if you're bringing children. If you're not interested in the Shaanxi Museum, you can skip the Small Wild Goose Pagoda. 8️⃣Local sisters do not recommend going to Muslim Street, but you can visit 【Sajinqiao】. It's crowded even during the day. I went there early in the morning at 7 am, and many places already had long queues, truly delicious without any disappointments. 9️⃣There are only shared bicycles in Xi'an city center, no electric scooters, so definitely do not drive there. If you're driving yourself, leave your car at the hotel and then take the subway, which is the most convenient. 🔟【Da Tang Furong Garden】 is a Tang Dynasty garden park, with a ticket price of 120 yuan. If you're dressing up for a photo shoot, then it's a great place for pictures. If you're just looking to visit, you can skip it. 1️⃣1️⃣It's recommended to book a hotel near 【Bell Tower】, which is also close to Sajinqiao, convenient for travel. However, prices rise quite a bit during May Day, so if you haven't booked yet, consider hotels along subway line 2, which are relatively convenient. 1️⃣2️⃣You can visit the Xi'an City Wall in the evening, entering from Yongning Gate. Around 6 pm, there are performances at Yongning Gate. 💟Essential scenic spots reservation methods: ①Shaanxi History Museum 💬Shaanxi History Museum ⏰Book 7 days in advance ⚠️Tickets are released at 10, 11, 18, and 19 o'clock every day ②Terracotta Warriors 💬Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum Reservation ⏰Book 7 days in advance ③Xi'an City Wall 💬Xi'an City Wall Scenic Area ⏰Book 7 days in advance ④Xi'an Museum 💬Xi'an Museum ⏰Book 7 days in advance, tickets are released at 18 o'clock every day
