Must-visit pagoda-view hotel in Xi'an for stunning photos

When my bestie brought her kids to Xi'an for summer vacation, I accompanied her to experience the famous pagoda-view hotel near the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda—Zhiyin Hotel. Even as a Xi'an local, I was amazed! Who knew such a magical hotel existed in Xi'an?

👉 Why magical? The location is unbeatable! Just a 5-minute walk from the subway station~
✔ Every room perfectly frames the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda—every shot is a postcard-worthy view! Exclusive access to Chang'an's iconic scenery! The hotel itself feels like an art gallery, photogenic at every turn. My bestie couldn't stop raving about how gorgeous and Instagrammable it was!

✔ During scorching 40°C+ days, while others jostle like stuffed buns in crowds to see the pagoda and its fountain show, we enjoyed the view from our air-conditioned room—cool, comfortable, and crowd-free. Now that's efficient travel!


Tang-style pastries (just like imperial concubines enjoyed!) + iced latte with floor-to-ceiling pagoda views
Kids played house in the tent while my bestie edited photos for social media—scoring 50+ likes in just 3 minutes 💥

✔ Conquering Chang'an's night in hotel slippers
At dusk, we slipped on our slippers for a stroll to the Tang Dynasty Ever-Bright City. The moment the kids whined about tiredness, we whisked them back to the hotel (under 5 minutes walk!). The hotel slippers were luxuriously comfy—even the robe and slipper bags showed thoughtful details.

After dark, with kids asleep, it was our tipsy heart-to-heart time—admiring the moonlit pagoda while sharing gossip and secrets. She sighed: "This is how beautiful Chang'an's night should be."

Local's triple shock:
1⃣ No fighting for photography spots!
1-hour queue at the red wall? We filled our phones' grids with pagoda shots until our devices overheated 🔥

2⃣ Breakfast highlights: braised beef noodles + jumbo shrimp + Yakult!
Kids chugged three Yakults, and we begged for second helpings of the fragrant beef noodles.

3⃣ Nighttime cocktails saved my wine-loving bestie~

Previous pagoda trips with kids felt like Journey to the West❗ Now? More like an empress's incognito tour!
