Tour description

Bring Your Appetite, Xi’an Doesn’t Do Diets!

Hi! I’m Wenqi, a born-and-bred Xi’an foodie with a PhD in noodle-slurping and dumpling-devouring! 🥟 Think of me as your hype-human for conquering the Carb Kingdom—we’ll feast on crispy roujiamo, chase history through ancient walls, and swap stories like spicy biangbiang noodles. Adventure (and food babies) guaranteed.

During my tour I may show you:

🍜 Ancient Restaurants: Visit 100-year-old spots where locals ate (yes, the carbs are that good)

🏡 Hidden Local Gems: Find tiny family restaurants even Xi’aners keep secret.

🌙 Night Market Madness: Stuff your face with spicy skewers, crispy pancakes, and desserts that glow in the dark.

🍦 Sweet & New: Taste modern treats: hawthorn ice cream, bubble tea with Xi’an twists.

Let’s get terracotta-wasted together—your turn to say ‘yes’!

IMPORTANT
The food price is not included. You decide how much you eat, how much you pay.

The tour will last about 2h30min, and we will try at least 7 dishes! But pay attention: Xi’An food is very filling, so spare some space in your stomach for lunch/dinner:) It’s a free tour but I also welcome some tips if you are really satisfied with the tour.

In order to make it easier for you to decide the tips, here are some references! If you are not satisfied at all, you can pay none. And satisfied for ¥150 per person, very satisfied for ¥200 per person, and super extremely satisfied for ¥300 per person. Thank you! Looking forward to exploring Xi'an food with you!

Bell Tower of Xi'an & Drum Tower of Xi'an

The Bell Tower of Xi'an is a historic Ming Dynasty structure located at the city's center. Built in 1384, it stands 36 meters tall on a brick base, featuring three layers of eaves and a spiral staircase. The tower, with its dark green tiles and gold-plated roof, is a prime example of Ming architecture. Originally housing the Jingyun Bell, it now contains a smaller 5-ton bell. The tower's engravings depict popular ancient Chinese stories.

Outside visit

Xi'an Muslim Dasi Residential Quarter

Located near the Bell and Drum Towers, it’s a centuries-old Muslim neighborhood dating back to the Tang Dynasty: 1. Home to the Hui ethnic minority (Chinese Muslims), blending Islamic culture with Chinese traditions. 2. Culinary Paradise: A foodie’s dream with over 200+ street food stalls and restaurants. Famous for halal cuisine (no pork) and authentic Northwestern Chinese flavors. （You’ll need to cover your own meal costs.）
