Quite near the Forbidden City is the Foreign Language Bookshop, which I always visit when in Beijing. I am pretty sure they sell maps, absolutely sure they sell a very wide range of English source material, and don't know whether they do laminated maps. Do bear in mind that maps of China may be restricted in various ways -availability; production in English; restrictions on who they can be sold to. I am not aware of anything similar in Xian.

In Beijing the Wangfujing Bookstore sells a wide variety of maps. In 2012 this was on the ground floor, directly to your left after you enter the store.
