- Muslim Quarter - Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of Xi’an’s Muslim Quarter, where the air is filled with tantalizing aromas and every corner has a story to tell. Here, food is not just consumed—it is celebrated.
Follow the enticing aroma of lamb skewers sizzling over open flames, seasoned with cumin and chili. Observe as “Yangrou Paomo” bread is hand-torn and soaked in a rich, aromatic lamb broth. Be sure to try ‘Roujiamo’, China’s oldest burger, filled with tender meat, and the “Biang Biang Noodles” with spiced meat, or watch the dramatic preparation of hand-stretched noodles, tossed right before your eyes. Each bite here is bold, authentic, and steeped in tradition. Arrive hungry, leave satisfied—and perhaps a bit messy.
Typically, 3-4 dishes are chosen from: Liang Pi (cold noodle), Yang Rou Pao Mo (crumbled pancake in mutton soup), Hui Fang Kao Rou skewers (barbecue), Suan Tang Shui Jiao (hot and sour dumpling soup), Biang Biang Noodles, sticky Zeng Gao, Plum Syrup (Suan Mei Fen drink)…
- Xi’an Mosque - You may also choose to visit the largest and best-preserved early mosque in China, located just behind the lively market. It is a peaceful and beautiful site, serving as a sacred place for local Muslims to pray, despite its proximity to the bustling street. The Great Mosque, primarily constructed during the Ming Dynasty, showcases a blend of Chinese architectural elements in its design.
