RE: Travel with me #62 :The magnificent ancient Bell and Drum Towers of Xi'an

in #travel7 years ago

我爱西安. Riding a bike on the city wall and the food on Muslim street is great. Also a fun nightlife. Amazing history in that area. Thanks for sharing

You sound like you've had a really good experience there before, that's great!
Did you know that Xi'an was the capital of China for 13 dynasties, it has so much cultural heritage, it's often over looked for just having the terracotta soldiers when in actual fact it has so much more!

Yeah I love the history! Xian was the ancient Chang An, and Luo Yang, thousands of years of history. One of my favorite places was qinshihuangs tomb. Even though its unopened it was still amazing to be there and imagine what is below you.

The hill you see there is the park on top of qinshihuangs tomb about 1.5km from the terra cotta soldiers. There was no one there just us :-)
