Xi'an is ranked as the second largest highway transportation hub in China, supported by five national highways of 345 kilometers and twelve provincial freeways of 266 kilometers (165.3 miles). Additionally, ten freeways have been constructed between the urban area and the districts and counties in the city. Any journey between them takes no more than one hour.
Presently, Xi'an's passenger transport is mainly supported by seven large long-distance bus stations, all of which are built in the urban area. Besides, there are several small stations dotted around the city. Generally speaking, most of the buses in the same station leave for cities and counties in the same direction within Shaanxi Province. So, it is easy for passengers to choose the right station if they know the direction of their destination.
The following are the seven large stations: Xi'an Bus Station of Shaanxi, Xi'an Coach Station, Sanfuwan Long-Distance Bus Station, Fangzhicheng Bus Station, West Xi'an Bus Station, Xi'an South Coach Station, North Xi'an Bus Station.
