Xian is known as the place you go to go to the Terracotta Warriors and Horsemen, but there is so much more. Xian is one of the ancient capitals of China and is presently one of the largest cities in China. It has a well preserved city wall, lots of museums and temples, and some excellent nightlife and street food. There is also a great deal of ethnic and religious diversity. The Muslim street is a major section of the old town.
