Xi'an Travel Safety Guide — China

Safety Score: 8.5/10 · Value: 8.8/10 · Beauty: 8.4/10

Xi'an is one of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of China, capital of 13 dynasties spanning 1,000 years, including the Qin, Han, and Tang dynasties. As the eastern terminus of the ancient Silk Road, it was the most cosmopolitan city on Earth during the Tang dynasty (618–907 AD), when the population was over 1 million. The Terracotta Army, 8,000 life-size clay warriors and horses buried with Emperor Qin Shi Huang in 210 BC, is one of the greatest archaeological discoveries in history and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The intact Ming Dynasty city wall (14km) and the vibrant Muslim Quarter are equally unmissable.
