I've tried it for you, and Xi'an is really not suitable for budget travel

Just returned from Xi'an, I'm here to share with you full of experiences and some anecdotes! 🕒 Remember the opening hours of the attractions: - Bell Tower & Drum Tower: 30 yuan per person, open from 8:30 to 18:00 (combined ticket 50 yuan) - Xi'an City Wall: 54 yuan per person, from early 8 am to 10 pm, book 7 days in advance - Shaanxi History Museum: Free admission but must book 3 days in advance, closed on Mondays, tickets released on the hour every day - Big Wild Goose Pagoda: 30 yuan per person, from 9 am to 5:30 pm, available for online booking at any time - Tang Paradise: 120 yuan per person, there is a light show at 8 pm, also need to book one week in advance - Terracotta Warriors: 120 yuan per person, open from 8:30 to 18:00, including Lishan Garden, reservation as above - Huaqing Palace: 120 yuan per person, from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm - The Song of Everlasting Sorrow Show: Book early, half a month before the peak season, and 7 days before the off-season - Mount Hua: Book 10 days in advance for climbing, the total cost of ticket + cable car + shuttle bus is 420 yuan 🧳 Tips: - Be sure to book in advance before holidays, the earlier the better! The same goes for joining a tour group! - Don't go up the city wall from the South Gate, you'll regret it, because the front is the holy place for check-ins! - For the Bell Tower and Drum Tower, don't waste money going up, the railing of Kaiyuan Mall opposite is the prime spot for photos! - Just look around at the bottom of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, there's nothing on top! - Wear a pair of comfortable flat shoes, you can easily walk twenty thousand steps in a day! - Ignore street hustlers, be careful with your valuables! - Choose accommodations near the subway line of Bell Tower and Drum Tower for good value! - Don't buy Lantian jade in the shopping street behind the Terracotta Warriors, most are fakes! - Bring your student ID, don't miss the half-price discounts at attractions!
