Muslim Quarter

Xian’s Muslim Quarter, also known as Muslim Street, is the heart of the city’s Hui minority community, descendants of Silk Road traders who settled here to form a close-knit neighborhood. Nestled in the bustling streets, visitors can explore about 10 mosques, each a testament to the area’s rich Islamic heritage. The vibrant food market and street food scene offer a sensory experience, with the aromas of spices and sizzling dishes filling the air. This historic district invites exploration, blending cultural history with the lively atmosphere of local life.
