Xi'an to Beijing Map

Plan your trip between Xi'an and Beijing on the high-speed CRH network, primarily using G-series services on the Xi'an–Baoji and Beijing–Xi'an corridors. Key intermediate stations include Baoji, Zhengzhou, and Shijiazhuang depending on route. The route crosses Shaanxi, Henan and Hebei provinces; use the map to plan transport connections, station transfers and timing for your trip within China.

Rail vs Bus vs Plane

High-speed rail between Xi'an and Beijing provides direct city-center to city-center travel with frequent departures and reliable train times. Long-distance buses are cheaper but involve significantly longer journey times and can be subject to road conditions.
