한국어 안내: 1. Bell Tower, Drum Tower and Shopping

한국어 안내: I’m Alisa, and this was our final day in Xi’an. The city turned out to be much larger and more historical than we expected. Even though the weather was cold and rainy, we still decided to continue exploring.

한국어 안내: In the morning, we walked past the famous Bell Tower and Drum Tower. If you watched our previous videos, you would know these landmarks are usually packed with tourists. However, rainy weather actually made the area quieter and much better for photography.

한국어 안내: Xi’an also has excellent shopping options, ranging from international luxury brands to local Chinese stores. One thing we noticed immediately was how many Apple flagship stores there were throughout the city.

한국어 안내: Another popular trend in Xi’an is renting traditional Chinese hanfu clothing for photos. Rental packages usually cost between 100 and 200 RMB, often including makeup and hairstyling services.

한국어 안내: 2. Walking Along the Xi’an City Wall

한국어 안내: Later, we bought tickets to walk along the famous Xi’an City Wall. Entry tickets cost 54 RMB, and WeChat Pay made the payment process extremely convenient.

한국어 안내: The City Wall was originally built during the Ming Dynasty and stretches for approximately 6.5 kilometers. The wall itself is incredibly wide — around 6 meters across — wide enough for emergency vehicles to drive on.

한국어 안내: Even in the rain, some visitors were still renting bicycles to ride around the wall. Personally, we decided walking would be safer because the stone surface looked slippery.

한국어 안내: Along the route, there were snack stalls, souvenir shops, and even preserved ancient fire stations displaying historical firefighting equipment.

한국어 안내: For travelers interested in Chinese history, the Xi’an City Wall is one of the most impressive landmarks in China.

한국어 안내: 3. Rainy Streets and Local Markets

한국어 안내: After hours in the rain, our shoes became completely soaked, so we stopped at a convenience store to buy waterproof shoe covers. Finding my size was surprisingly difficult because my shoe size is quite large by local standards.

한국어 안내: Later, we wandered into a quiet alley with almost no tourists. The atmosphere felt completely different from the main attractions because it was filled entirely with local residents.

한국어 안내: Street vendors were making fresh noodles by hand, while fruit sellers displayed watermelons, grapes, and cherries along the roadside. These ordinary daily scenes made Xi’an feel much more authentic than the crowded tourist areas.

한국어 안내: We also passed a place called the City God Temple, where shops sold incense, traditional decorations, and stone ornaments. Exploring these smaller streets became one of the most memorable parts of the trip.

한국어 안내: 4. Muslim Quarter Street Food Experience

한국어 안내: In the afternoon, we returned to the famous Muslim Quarter, one of the best food streets in Xi’an.

한국어 안내: Even with puddles everywhere from the rain, the streets were still crowded with locals searching for snacks and dinner. The energy of the area never seemed to slow down.

한국어 안내: We tried Xi’an’s famous biangbiang noodles, served with tomato, egg, and pork. The flavors were rich, savory, and incredibly satisfying.

한국어 안내: We also ordered grilled meat skewers, but one important tip for visitors is that local seasoning can be extremely spicy. If you do not eat spicy food, remember to ask for “no spice” before ordering.

한국어 안내: For food lovers, the Muslim Quarter is absolutely essential when visiting Xi’an.

한국어 안내: 5. High-Speed Rail Back to Beijing

한국어 안내: That evening, we took the high-speed train back to Beijing. Xi’an North Railway Station felt almost as large as an airport, complete with strict security checks.

한국어 안내: Because foreign passports often cannot use the automated ticket gates, we had to enter through the manual inspection lane instead.

한국어 안내: At the station McDonald’s, I compared prices and realized something interesting: a Big Mac meal cost more than three bowls of local noodles, five meat skewers, and a beer combined in the city center.

한국어 안내: That comparison confirmed one thing clearly — local Xi’an street food offers incredible value for money.

한국어 안내: 6. Final Thoughts on Xi’an

한국어 안내: Xi’an is a city best explored slowly. Even in rainy weather, walking along the ancient City Wall and discovering hidden alleyways felt unforgettable.

한국어 안내: The city combines deep Chinese history with vibrant local street life, making it one of the most rewarding travel destinations in China.

한국어 안내: If you visit Xi’an, do not rush through the attractions. Bring an umbrella, explore beyond the tourist streets, and enjoy the atmosphere at your own pace.
