شيان: جولة توكتوك الخاصة لتناول الطعام عبر هوتونغ القديمة والشرق المخفي

Looking back, this was less about eating a huge meal than paying attention to several small ones. That rhythm worked for 3 hours and 30 minutes.

The unglamorous part: the Xi'an stops were organised, but the food did not arrive like a rehearsed tasting menu. Each place kept its own character.

Before you go, come hungry in Xi'an and say clearly what you cannot eat. There was enough variety that skipping one item did not make the experience feel smaller.

Not every minute was engineered into a “moment.” There was time for coffee, questions and simply watching Xi'an go by.

In short, I would change my shoes, not the itinerary. I would keep the Xi'an outline as it was.
