After three nights in Beijing we departed to fly to Xi'an. When we arrived we could really see why this is called the "China of yesterday" or "China of the past." Beijing is called the "china of today," and Shanghai is the "China of tomorrow." China is so large that it is most efficient to fly places. In total we will fly on 6 internal flights in China...let me jsut say I am already sick of planes. On the first morning in Xi'an we went to Emperor Qin Shihhuangdi's tomb entrance. This tomb is ...

One of the students in the USAC program decided he wanted to go to Xi'an to see the famous terracolta soldiers. Before we know it, 22 piers decided to take the train and spend a couple of days in this ancient capital city. My International Business class met all day on Thursday so we could make the train today. (Normally classes would have run through 5:00 p.m. today). Last night I graded rsearch papers and the final exams for class. I'm not as youg as I used to be! An allnighter was a long h...

Well I have just returned from a four day excursion to China's cultural city of Xi'an. This city used to be the ruling center for dynasty after dynasty in Chinese history. Part of the trip was an optional 1 credit field study in which you have to write a paper about Chinese culture. For those of you that know me, I really don't need more credits and extra work, especially for only 1 credit. So, I just went on the trip to travel.
This trip started off with another long train ride (16 h...
This past weekend I flew to Xi'an, only about 1 hour away, and went to see the Terra Cotta Warriors. It was pretty cool and Xi'an was also a really nice city with the inner part of it contained within some very old, high, and beautiful city walls. I'll be uploading pictures some night this week.

Xian is well known to be the cradle of China's civilisation where most of China dynasties rose and fell. Today Xian is classified as a small city (only 3.2 mil) in terms of China vast population and largely caters for the tourist and educational industry. One of the most famous sites in Xian are the world famous terracotta warriors which have been named by UNESCO as a world heritage site. The terracotta statues were discovered in the early 70's by a farmer trying to dig a well when he pulled ...

... the efforts both in their making and excavating. Since the last time I visited them more have been unearthed. Unfortunately my battery on my big camera died at the end but it was a thrill to take photos and see them again. We did catch our flight to Yichang and had a very yummy snack. We were given a little box containing a dinner roll, a sweet muffin and a cucumber. I ate the cucumbers while Mike ate the muffins.

... imperial guard should look like in those days of pomp and vigor. The next stop was at Xian's Old City Wall. It still stands 2000 years later completely and is about 8 miles in perimeter. I walked along a little on top of the wall and even explored one of the watchtowers. When Zhu Yuanzhang, the ...

... around AU$50 to stay in a hotel for the night. Best thing we could have done, having the toilet close by and the shower and heater in our room by the next day we felt better. Not perfect... but better! The next day we had a private bus for an hour back to the Chengdu train station. That was an alright trip, we have had the bus driver before and he is a lot of fun! He sings and is really nice. However, he must have been ...

... what it was we were ordering. We still didn't get it right but the food was delicious and Mike tucked into his 'mifaan' but left most of the rest alone cause he couldn't recognise it. After the cycling and shopping I happily settled back to a large bottle of Yanjing beer for about a dollar. Those at school with me would equate it to the quarts we used to buy from the local shabeen when we ran out.
