Xian Private Day Tour: History & Muslim Culture Experience
- Duration: 8 Hours (approx.)
- Location: Xi'an, Shaanxi Province
- Product code: CXT039
Get picked up from your hotel lobby at 9:00 am. Your first stop of the day is Shaanxi History Museum, which is one of the biggest museums in China. It houses the cultural heritage of Shaanxi Province and shows the development of the Chinese civilization. Next move on to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and catch sight of the 1,300-year-old pagoda. Here you'll get some free time to wander around the North Square of Bid Wild Goose Pagoda.
Then it's time for lunch break to eat a traditional-style Chinese meal. After lunch make your way to the Ancient City Wall, which is the relic of ancient military defense. The last stop will be the Great Mosque, a major spot for religious activities for over 60,000 Muslims in Xian. Different from the Mosque in Arabic, the Mosque here in Xian possesses a lot of Chinese traditional style in both its design and artistic outlook. You will also take a walk at the famous Muslim Quarter where you will find many local snacks and crafts. When all the sites are finished, we escort you back to your hotel around 5-6 pm.
Special note: During Chinese summer holiday (July & August), it is very crowded in Shaanxi History Museum and needs queuing for long time and there is also limitation for the number of visitors each day. To make sure a good tourist experience for travelers, we might suggest to change Shaanxi History Museum with Xian Museum (free) and refund the admission fee.
