Qujiang New District (Chinese: 曲江新区; pinyin: Qǔjiāng xīnqū) is a district in Xi'an city, Shaanxi province, China.[1]

The district was first created as a tourism district called Xi’an Qujiang Resort in 1993.[1][2] The site originally had an area of 15.88 square kilometres. It has been expanded to 47 square kilometres.[3] The resort became Qujiang New District ten years after its establishment.[1] It is now an economic centre with arts, luxury shopping, tourism and 5-star hotels (e.g. Westin, W Hotels in Xi'an).[1]
