Xian, the historical city, was called Chang'an in ancient times, and
is now the capital of Shaanxi province.
Xian is situated in the centre of Weihe Plain with the towering and verdant
Mt.Qinling in the south, with the meandering and rolling Beishan mountain
system in the north and eight rivers around it, all of which are at Guang
Zhong Plain (the centre of passes). Historically, it was famous for being
called "a gold city stretching a thousand li" with its fertile
soil, mild climate, adequate rainfall and rich products.
Xian has a long history. Since the earliest societies, humanity lived
and multiplied here. It served as a capital for twelve dynasties, including
the Western Zhou, Qin, Western Han, Sui and Tang dynasties, spanning over
1120 years. It became the oriental cultural centre of the Silk Road. Below
you will find a comprehensive listing of Xian Hotels by Locations.
