Back from Xi'an, I don't recommend going in the off-season because...

Hey guys 😃, Xi'an in January is a unique experience, let me tell you how to have fun. 1. Preparation Xi'an is quite cold in January, so make sure to bring a down jacket, thick sweater, scarf, and gloves. Staying warm is the most important thing❗ I recommend staying near the Bell and Drum Towers, it's convenient to go anywhere, and you can enjoy the beautiful night view. For transportation, the subway can take you to most attractions in the city, and you can also prepare some change for the bus, as some bus routes have beautiful scenery. 2. Must-visit attractions 1. Ancient City Wall: Go to the city wall early in the morning when there are fewer people. The city wall in January is less noisy and more simple and quiet. Rent a bike and ride around the city wall, overlooking the inside and outside of the city, and feel the weight of history. It's windy on the city wall, so remember to wrap up tightly and don't just take pictures and freeze yourself 🥶. 2. Terracotta Warriors: A must-see! Although it's not in the city, it's very convenient to get there. When you get there, hire a guide, otherwise, you won't be able to see the way out of a pile of clay figures. Listening to the guide, imagine the might of the Qin army back then, it's very shocking. There is heating in the exhibition hall, so you don't have to worry about freezing. 3. Shaanxi History Museum: Make a reservation in advance, and grab a free ticket. Here you can find treasures from thousands of years, from Shang and Zhou bronzes to Han and Tang gold and silverware, all the way through the long river of history. If you get tired of walking, there is a rest area in the museum, with plenty of heating, so you can take a break and continue to visit. 4. Bell and Drum Towers: Beautiful after the lights are on at night. The Bell Tower is in the city center, and the Drum Tower is next to the Muslim Quarter. First, go to the Bell Tower to see the chime performance, then go to the Drum Tower to listen to the drum music, and finally go to the Muslim Quarter for a late-night snack, a perfect route 😎. 3. Food recommendations 1. Lamb Pao Mo: A bowl of it in cold weather will warm you up. Find an old brand, break the mo yourself, slowly break it to get the flavor, then pour hot soup, the lamb is tender, the mo is chewy, the soup is fresh and flavorful, and a bowl of it is very satisfying. 2. Rou Jia Mo: The Bai Ji Mo is crispy and crumbly, with chopped braised meat and a spoonful of braised soup, take a bite, and it's so fragrant that you stomp your feet. Don't just look at the inconspicuous street shops, they may hide the most authentic taste. 3. Hot Rice Noodles: Hanzhong specialty can also be found in Xi'an. Soft and glutinous rice noodles, with chili oil, bean sprouts, and other seasonings, stir them up, the red oil is bright and shiny, and it tastes smooth and spicy, a bowl for breakfast, and start a vibrant day. 4. Notes Xi'an occasionally snows in January, the road is slippery, be careful not to fall. There are many tourists in the scenic spots, so take care of your personal belongings. If you go to attractions like Lishan Mountain, it's colder on the mountain, so bring a thermos and drink hot water at any time. In addition, Xi'an people are warm and hospitable, if you don't understand, just ask, and you will surely get a warm response. Guys, Xi'an in January has beautiful scenery and delicious food, just waiting for you to embark on this journey, for an unforgettable winter date, I guarantee you will have fun, eat to your heart's content, and go back thinking about how good Xi'an is 😘!
