What travelers say:

Cycling atop Xian's ancient city wall, I was immersed in a blend of history and scenic beauty. The sturdy fortification, dating back to the Ming Dynasty, stretched endlessly, offering panoramic views of the modern cityscape juxtaposed with traditional rooftops and temples. The brick pathway wound past watchtowers and battlements, each corner revealing a new perspective of the bustling streets below. The lush greenery lining the wall provided a tranquil contrast to the lively atmosphere. Descending from the wall, I explored quaint neighborhoods and bustling markets within the city gates, where the scent of local delicacies filled the air. As the sun set, the wall was bathed in a golden glow, casting long shadows and creating a picturesque backdrop for capturing timeless moments. Cycling the Xian City Wall was not just an exploration but a journey through centuries of history and culture.

Helpful Information

There are bicycle rental services at each of the 4 gates; North, South, East and West, for you to rent and to return. The best way to tour this ancient city is by bicycle as it is even allowed on top of the circumvallation. After that you can always hop into the sightseeing electric cars to loop through the rest of the city of which the entire journey will take about 50 minutes.
