The oldest surviving capital of ancient China, Xi'an is home to thousands of years of Chinese heritage and history. Xi'an is more than 3,000 years old and was known as Chang'an in ancient times. For 1,000 years, the city was the capital for 13 dynasties, and a total of 73 emperors ruled here.

With so much history within the ground the city lies upon, it is no wonder that there are so many historical ruins, museums and cultural relics to be found here.

Download or read book Xian Tourism China written by Jack Wright and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Xian Tourism, Xian History, China. Travel Guide. As the capital of China's extremely historic Shaanxi province, Xian really is a wonderful place to learn about the region's past Chinese civilisations, which span more than 6,000 years and include many important dynasties. Xian was once the easterly terminus for the famous Silk Road camel caravans and has become a city of culture, standing right next to the world-famous Army of Terracotta Warriors, close to Lintong. The very heart of Xian is clearly marked by its enormous Bell Tower and Drum Tower, which date from the late 14th century and are surrounded by important shopping centres and leading entertainment venues. Xian's railway station lies to the north-east and is reached along the Jiefang Lu, where the city's Tourist Information Services Centre is located, along with the post office and the long-distance bus station. Although it would be true to say that the main draw card of Xian is its Terracotta Army, the city does have plenty of other quality attractions to offer tourists spending time here. The ancient City Walls add much character to Xian, while the Big Goose Pagoda (Dayan Ta) and Little Goose Pagoda (Xiaoyan Ta) are certainly further 'must sees'. Those with time on their hands would be advised to enjoy a leisurely stroll around the Hui Muslim Quarter, where innumerable sights and sounds are in good supply.Within the Hui Muslim Quarter, the Great Mosque (Daqingzhen Si) is a particular highlight and is the epitomy of traditional Chinese architecture at its very best, dating from the middle of the 18th century. Other striking structures within Xian include its oriental-style Drum Tower (Gu Lou) and Bell Tower (Zhong Lou, as well as its grand Taoist Temple of the Eight Immortals (Baxian An), near to the Zhongshan Gate (Zhongshan Mén).
