Hiking
The Drum Tower of Xi'an was built in the Ming Dynasty in 1380, four years earlier than the Bell Tower. The tower featured a large drum that played every hour of the day. The Drum Tower is only about 250 meters from the Bell Tower.
Guided tours are available, and cheaper combined tickets for both towers are available.
