Xi'an
Mount Hua & Ancient Capitals Exploration
5 days / 4 nightsXi'an1 reviews
Overview
One of China's five sacred mountains combined with the layered history of Xi'an and a valley full of archaeological secrets. Mount Hua (Huashan) is both a physical challenge and a spiritual one — its five peaks connected by narrow ridge paths and iron chain handholds, each sacred to a different Taoist deity. Below it, the Wei River plain holds Neolithic sites, imperial burial mounds, and a medieval capital waiting to be explored.

- Night ascent option: summit South Peak at sunrise
- Terracotta Army — the most visited archaeological site in the world
