It is no understatement that the city of Xi’an has had a rich and influential history. The city was historically referred to as Chang ‘an and was the home to over 10 different dynasties. These included the well-known Qin, Han, Sui and Tang Dynasties.
There are many remnants from these dynasties that have captured the imagination of millions of visitors. For example, it was Emperor Qin Shi Huang that set about creating the first feudal dynasty, but you may know him for a much more recognizable monument he left behind.
The Terracotta Army of China is well known as one of the most extraordinary archaeological findings and has gained worldwide popularity. Additionally, there remain structures such as the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda or the Drum tower, all serving as testaments to the brilliance of these bygone eras.
