There are many hanfu to choose from, especially the flowy kind. The girls at the shop were very kind and helped me wonderfully. After getting your makeup done, you have to go to a park near the big pagoda to take photos, and then to a shop to choose which ones you want retouched. I had a fantastic time! Although, it was about three hours in total!

We had a wonderful time at this class. The teachers were extremely helpful and we can tell they put a lot of care into their craft. Highly recommended!

Seeing the Terracotta Army in person is nothing short of thrilling. Redeeming the ticket with a passport is simple. However, tour groups should not be allowed to give explanations inside the pits, as they create crowds and lines, and negatively impact the experience of other visitors. Explanations should be provided outside.

Booking on Klook is easy. I booked the first show (8.10pm in June) Central District. Different timing in different timing, because they need to wait for sun to set. Seat number was stated on the paper ticket and I was on the last row. Still decent view I feel. A show with combination of laser, lights, water, fire and of course the performers. Show your passport/ID to exchange for physical tickets at ticketing counter. Pass through security scanning in two separate lines (male and female). Enter the seating area by following the signage. Different area has different stairs, your ticket will indicate 单/双. Many people but crowd clears fast. Plenty of leg room in front of the seats (enough space for people to walk comfortably in front of the seats) If possible, arrive earlier as there are some 'talkshows' before the actual performance start.

it was on summer discount so it was definitely worth it. guide was very knowledgeable and patient. only downside was that the lunch provided was very average, definitely could've been better, and also they could've at least provided a bottle of water.

Mount Hua is a must-see when you're in the area. Our guide, Zem, was very thoughtful and gave us a lot of information about our itinerary (ascending from the west and descending from the north). The weather can be unpredictable, but we loved the cloudy and slightly rainy atmosphere, which didn't detract from the charm of one of China's most famous mountains. By booking with Klook, you get breakfast and lunch included, plus a small magnet to take home. We highly recommend it! 😊

I want to start by thanking Ruby the most charming and characteristic woman I have met in the tour industry, your knowledge and connection to the community made this visit to your beautiful city a once in a lifetime experience for me. I am truly grateful you showed me and my wife around today. the tour was extremely enjoyable and very informative, it was well planned and had some extra surprises that truly made it even more memorable ( they aren’t listed in description but just trust ruby )

Easy to use, just need to scan passport at entrance. Long queue but moving very fast. It took me only 15min to get into the museum. Amazing museum covering almost all history of ancient China with lots and lots or artifacts.

The audience seating moves 220 meters, not just the stage, creating an immersive experience as if you're living in the Qin Dynasty. The quality, including the stage direction, music, projection mapping, and the actors' skills, is truly top-tier. I felt it was worth traveling to Xi'an just to see this production. I want to visit again.

What to know before visiting Xi'an

Discover Xi'an: history, tours and cultural highlights

Xi'an is a hub for historical sites, guided tours and cultural experiences, with Attractions and Events also featuring strongly in local bookings. Demand on Klook peaks in April and falls to its lowest in August, giving the city a rhythm that swings between busy spring months and a much quieter late summer.

Best time to visit based on crowds and prices

Klook booking data shows April is the busiest month while August is the quietest. Prices drift through the year: they’re typically lowest in July and August and rise toward the spring and into May, so peak demand in April comes alongside relatively higher prices. If you want smaller crowds and lower prices, plan for July–August; for full peak-season atmosphere, aim for April when attractions and events are at their liveliest.

Tips for travellers from Australia

Most travellers from Australia tend to book about 18 days ahead, with many finalising plans within around nine days of travel, so you have flexibility. If you’re visiting in April (the busiest month), consider booking experiences earlier in that window; for quieter months you can often lock things in closer to departure. Use Klook to browse tours, historical-site tickets and cultural experiences and secure spots with the booking lead times that suit your trip.
