Decorative Xian / China

Posted by Leena (Joensuu, Finland) on 26 May 2009 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

After Beijing we went to Xi'an , what has been also the eastern terminus of the Silk Road. This city has more than 3,100 years of history. As one of the oldest cities in Chinese history, Xi'an is one of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of China.

Thank you very much for your visits and comments !

I should love to visit China one day. Love those lanterns around the gardens. Did you eat lots of delicious chinese food? I am assuming you were travelling with a group tour.
