Where China’s great stories begin.
The old city walls still frame a place that once stood at the centre of empires. Meet the extraordinary Terracotta Army, trace the legacy of the Tang dynasty and wander lanes alive with the aromas of cumin, fresh bread and hand-pulled noodles. Xi’an brings archaeology and everyday life into wonderfully close conversation.
