What's the weather of xi'an between 9 to 16 Feb '13? Key attractions? All shops closed?

It will be a little cold then. According to the past weather records, the lowest temp then would be around -3C and the highest temp may be 7-8C. Thus the warm clothes are suggested, such as down jacket, sweater, Long John and thick trousers. Sometimes, a hat and scarf are also necessary upon windy days.

During that time, the major attractions should be City Wall (you can enjoy Lantern Show there), Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Muslim Quarter and Terracotta Warriors Museum.

Not all the shops will be closed then. Don't worry! You can still find some special stores or big shopping malls.
