2025 Xianyang Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

Just finished experiencing Xi'an T5 Terminal, While being so angry that he rolled his eyes, At the same time, I was amazed and screamed. This wave must be talked about! 😣Slot points: 🌀Confusing airport instructions Although there is domestic self-service check-in on the second floor, it is very slow. If you want to choose a safe exit, you have to go to the manual counter on the third floor. 🌀Museum visiting rules Schrödinger The most outrageous thing is the museum on the 4th floor of the terminal! I saw before that you need to make an appointment in advance, but the number of places available each day is limited and it is almost impossible to get one. When I arrived at the museum entrance, I asked the lady if she could let me in to take a look. The lady told me that I could not enter without a reservation (I still had my boarding pass in my hand at the time), so I had to leave in shame. When I returned to the third floor, I overheard a volunteer telling another passenger that "passengers can queue up on-site to visit with their boarding pass on the day," and I was instantly speechless about the staff at the museum entrance. I returned to the museum, registered my boarding pass and was able to enter for the visit. I don’t know why this young lady kept blocking me with my boarding pass. After entering, I found that the exhibition area was indeed not big, but the exhibition layout was indeed exquisite. Xi'an is indeed a city where you can dig up cultural relics with just a shovel! Various jars, ornaments and figurines dug out during the airport construction were directly displayed in the display cabinets. ✨Highlights: Aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty The entire terminal is a collision of modern and classical elements, and the museum's bracket-arched wooden structure brings back memories of the Daming Palace. The "Hundred-Meter Long Scroll" in the departure hall takes the Qinling Mountains as its ancestral vein, showing the magnificence of mountains and rivers and highlighting the historical and cultural heritage of Chang'an. Airport MixC takes off from the spot Although the process tortured me thousands of times, the commercial area is really good! China Resources directly transformed this place into Airport MixC AIRMIXC, and its commercial positioning is close to MixC M1. The future brand business is worth looking forward to! Summary of the guide ✅ Check-in: If you want to save time and check in luggage or need a seat at the emergency exit, go to the third floor → go through security and return to the second floor → the boarding gate is within 8 minutes’ walk ✅ Museum: Travelers do not need to make an appointment, boarding pass = admission ticket! Go directly to the 4th floor to queue up for entry ✅ Photo spots: Imitation Tang Dynasty bracket ceiling + "Hundred-meter Scroll" mural + runway stone floor tiles Finally, I want to say, T5 is like a proud and arrogant Tang-style beauty—she has good looks but a weird temper. It is recommended that you arrive at the airport 2 hours in advance. While complaining, exploring, Maybe you can encounter a cultural relic-level surprise around the corner~ #3月好去地方2025 #西安旅游 #西安好去地方👍 #trip #airport #museum #check-in好去地方

Getting There - easy, 100 didi ride from xian center Attractions - fake looking everything. Hotels - one hotel i didnt visit Food & Restaurants - snack street. didnt try Shopping - tourist trap. It is literally a tourist trap. fake flowers, some statues and lots of tea shops that offer fucha but without the feeling of real tea shop and more like a tourist bleeding center. the museum is worth it if you really are into tea and can understand chinese.

Han Yang Ling Everyone heard about terracotta warriors in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang Di. Yes, that was pretty impressive. But Xi'an and Xianyang cities have a lot of other tombs with remarkable artifacts. Today I would like to introduce one more emperor tomb - Han Yang Ling located in Xianyang city, which is very close to Xi'an and together they are forming biggest agglomeration in Shaanxi province. The mausoleum has thousands of small figures and sculptures. As in a case of terracotta warriors, all these servants, warriors and animals should accompany their lord in the spirit realm, according to the ancient beliefs. I am very happy I found the time to visit this remarkable place. #culturalattractions#museumquest#historicculture

[Xi'an best fish soup squid hot pot! Soup fresh meat is delicious today, come to the spotted fish hot pot. Located in Zhongmao Square, the Lijiang Longli Group has an elegant decoration style.

As the name suggests, the Zhou Family Courtyard is the compound of Zhou Jiazhi. The residents of the village are all descendants of the famous Northern philosopher Zhou Dunyi. They live together as a kinship family and have been through 27 generations. Zhou Dunyi takes the lotus self-telling, writes "Ai Lian said", and says "The silt is not dyed, and the sputum is clear and not demon". Since then, "Lotus" has become the spiritual totem of the Zhou clan, and the ubiquitous lotus pattern is precisely the reflection of the famous "Ai Lian". Zhou Dunyi's "Lian" Jie has set a benchmark for people of future generations. At the same time, it is like a spring breeze and moisturizes the Zhou clan. Therefore, after more than 500 years of enduring, and talented people, they wrote "Nine Generations of Three The legend of Jinshi, the story of more than 70 officials at or above the county level in the Qing Dynasty, emerged as such a man. Of course, the beauty of lotus is not only "clean" but also "fragrance". How can I get away with you? Abdominal poetry and gas from China! Su Shi once wrote in "San Yu Tang Ming": "The loyalty of the family is long, the poetry is the longest." A family can live through the big waves of the years, not by chance, but by strict The family style has an inevitable connection. In fact, the descendants of the Zhou family have been observing the ancestral training of "the first class loyalty to the filial son, two things to study and cultivate the fields".

🗺 It feels like ages since I last soaked in a hot spring. Over the weekend, I arranged a getaway with a friend and booked a themed room at Xianyang Haiquan Bay Hot Spring Resort Hotel. The fairytale world theme was absolutely adorable, complete with a little tent ⛺ and full amenities – truly five-star hotel standards! ⛱ Since it's a vacation, we made sure to fully enjoy the hot spring ♨ experience. The facility has three floors: the first floor is the changing area, both first and second floors have soaking pools, while the third floor houses the rest area, cinema, and dining zone. 🏖 The entire place features Japanese-style decor, including the changing area where you can even wear yukata 👘 robes. Xianyang Haiquan Bay Hot Spring World recently launched their cherry blossom 🌸 season, complete with a cherry blossom corridor – perfect for photos when dressed in yukata! ♨ My favorite were the beauty pools – seven in total, each with different scents and benefits: tulip, papaya, lavender, jasmine, aloe, osmanthus, and rose. Soaking in each one was pure bliss. ♨ There are also larger themed pools like Roman, Japanese, Huaqing Pool, Thai, and Dead Sea baths – each offering unique experiences. After soaking, you can enjoy a sauna, apply a face mask, and take a nap – utterly relaxing. 🥢 The third-floor dining area has a Japanese aesthetic with ample seating. Options include Korean kimchi hot pot, mini hot pot buffet, curry rice, sushi, shumai, dumplings, as well as simple spicy rice noodles and minced pork noodles – plenty of variety!
