Plan your Xian Tour in March? March ushers in an early spring in Xian which is getting relatively warmer than February, saying farewell to the harsh winter. Xian's landscape turns greener with new leaves and budding flowers.

March is also the transitional tourist month going from low season to high season. Most of the entrance fees in Xian are adjusted according to high tourist season, but you may still be lucky enough to be eligible for Xian-bound discounted flights and hotel accommodations in Xian.
Though warmer than February, you still need to prepare yourself for some warm clothes in March to deal with the chilly temperature in the morning and evening, a big temperature difference in a day.
You may make use of the data to decide what to dress, what to pack, what to see for your coming trip to Xian.
