"Xi'an: old and new" Xian Shan by MylesD

Xian Shan Travel Guide: 35 reviews and 45 photos

Xi'an's a wonderful city if you know where to go, and how to get there...there are many 'downsides' to visiting any Chinese city, and having spent 2 years of my young life here, I consider myself somewhat of an authority in giving advice to people who wish to visit this wonderfully diverse country. Anyway, on to Xi'an! Enjoy and please e-mail me for further information. (ttmdolphin@hotmail.com)
