If you consider yourself a foodie then this is your place. If not, go here anyways and eat. The ambiance and energy are worth the stroll.

Lively local culture
Jan 2023 • Solo
The area is busy and filled with life. The best part is the back streets where the real lives happen. Walking on the back roads you can experience the reality of the local community, how they eat, how the shop, what is popular between them. It is a great place to know the local culture and try some delicious local food. Special highlights to the lamb pita bread soup, lamb bbq and pomegranate fresh juice.

Interesting and cultural place. Worth to visit
Aug 2022
I would say this place is mostly for business for the local Muslim community. It is really nice to visit it though, especially in the evening. What I would recommend is to skip dinner and go there in the evening and try various kinds of foods. You will be surprised and I think most of the people would enjoy the food. You must try the local specialty, the grilled squid. Many places have it. It is really nice. You can also buy there many souvenirs. Probably no performances, as I did not experience any but loads of food and souvenirs and other things to buy. Surely worth to go!

Visit the Great Mosque and try some local food
Jul 2022
From Drum Tower, entered Muslim Quarter and turned left following the sign to Mosque. Cute alleyways with all kinds of tacky souvenir stuff to purchase (want a Stalin calendar?) Mosque was great and I was one of two tourists there. Saw a procession / group of people coming out of the prayer hall which was interesting. Nice courtyard and buildings, quiet and peaceful. Went back to Muslim Quarter and tried 3 different places for food, had cold sesame noodles, beef soup dumplings and lamb 'burger', all delicious and nice afternoon stroll.

Not quite the cultural experience I expected
Jul 2021 • Solo
Just felt a bit tacky, and not quite the experience I had been expecting. Plenty of stalls, although all selling very similar food and souvenirs. Didn't have the depth of culture I had hoped, and felt more like a tourist trap. I suggest going down the side streets and off the main track to see some smaller units, and local people.

Good to see in the evening
Jun 2021 • Couples
Muslim quarter is one of must see locations in Xi’an. Very bright place with eastern color. Here you can find a lot of snacks like spicy bbq of different kinds, sweets like yogurt roll ice cream, Uighur flatbread, various drinks: sweet flower tea (rose, cherry, karkade) and fresh fruit juice (pomegranate, coconut and passion fruit). This place definitely doesn’t feel like China, more like eastern bazaar….. with Chinese souvenirs. Be careful- might be very crowded in the evenings around 6-8, specially weekends

Excellent food and shopping

So many fantastic food choices. Definitely recommend the mutton soup with bread pieces and the many varieties of flat bread. Have some fun bargaining in the souvenir shops!

Hectic street with tons of food.
Dec 2020 • Couples
We visited twice, during night time and day tine, and we recommend you to come at evening. It's always crowded, but manageable.
Tons of food. We tried the stinky tofu, and I love it.
