Xi'an
The Village Guardians of Xi'an
6 days / 5 nightsXi'an3 reviews
Overview
Beyond the Terracotta Army, Xi'an holds a world most visitors never find: the agricultural villages of the Wei River plain, where ancient rhythms of farming life persist alongside Neolithic sites, cave dwellings carved into loess cliffs, and artisan workshops that have produced the same crafts for centuries. This six-day journey opens that world, guided by a local Xi'an specialist who grew up in it.
Tour Highlights
- Visit a lived-in loess cave dwelling community in Shaanxi's countryside
- Learn to make traditional biangbiang noodles in a village kitchen
