Suhoor delivered before Fajr
A box of dates, bread, eggs and tea at your door, timed to your wake-up call.
Suhoor boxes delivered before Fajr, slow afternoons, iftar confirmed nightly and Eid prayer at the Great Mosque. We rebuild the entire day around the fast: nothing scheduled before 10am, nothing strenuous after Asr, and every iftar table booked and paid for in advance. Xi'an is the best city in China to spend Ramadan — a million-person Hui community and a mosque that has fed fasting Muslims for thirteen centuries.

The halal guarantee on this route: every restaurant is a certified halal restaurant with no pork and no alcohol on the premises. We send the full list with addresses before you fly, and your guide re-checks each booking the day before you eat there.

Breaking the fast with the congregation in the courtyard of a mosque founded in 742.
If your dates fall over Eid, we take you to the Eid prayer — tens of thousands of people in the streets around the mosque.
The whole quarter stays open until one in the morning and the atmosphere is unlike anything else in China.
Rest, Quran, a nap. Nothing strenuous between Asr and Maghrib.
One evening broken in a family home, arranged in advance and genuinely hospitable.
A working skeleton, not a fixed package — we rebuild it around your dates, your prayer needs and whoever is travelling with you.
Halal transfer from XIY, early check-in and rest. Maghrib and iftar at the Great Mosque with the congregation.
Fajr with the congregation, suhoor left over or a light breakfast, then a quiet morning. Afternoon rest. Iftar in the Quarter.
A late start and a gentle morning at the pits, back in the city well before Asr. Iftar at a Hui restaurant near the mosque.
Rest through the heat, then a walk on the Ming wall as the light goes. Iftar on the wall or just below it.
A slow day in the quarter, then iftar cooked and served by a Hui family in their own home.
A deliberately empty day. Optional visit to a Quran study circle. The night market after Taraweeh.
If Eid falls in your window, the Eid prayer and the celebrations around the mosque. Otherwise a farewell day and dinner.
Fajr, breakfast, and a transfer timed to your flight.
This trip exists for prayer. The Great Mosque of Xi'an holds all five prayers and Taraweeh throughout Ramadan, and the surrounding quarter has smaller mosques on nearly every block. Your guide is Muslim, is usually fasting too, and will never schedule anything that competes with Fajr, Maghrib or Taraweeh.
Ramadan itself, obviously — and the last ten nights are extraordinary. Outside Ramadan, Xi'an is still the best Muslim city in China to visit; ask us about Eid al-Adha dates too.
Send us your dates and who is travelling. A Muslim advisor replies within one hour during China working hours with a day-by-day halal plan for this route — restaurants, mosques, prayer times, hotels and an itemised price.
