    Getting TO/AROUND: There is a China Rail ticket window on the second floor (first floor=ground floor) of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China on the corner right in front of the Hyatt Regency hotel (+/- 1,5 km straight south from the train station and +/- 1,5 km east of the Bell Tower).
    Office hours: 09:00-12:00 and 14:00-16:00.
    Only a couple of people queuing here and the service is very fast.
    The staff who served us did not speak one word English (I did not hear/see her utter a single Chinese word to her Chinese customers either), but was extremely efficient in communicating in writing (train number, departure/arrival times, price, etc.). Very easy and fast to buy train tickets here.

    Address: on the north/east corner of the intersection of Dongda Jie (east-west) and Jiefang Lu (north-south). The black circle in the right lower quarter of the map indicates the intersection where the office is located.

    Aknowledgement: the map is a copy of a free leaflet edited by the Tourism Bureau Of Shaanxi Province and made available at hotel desks. If anybody objects to the use of this map on my tip, please contact me.
