Katy's Travels
Xian was a lot more dirty and old than the last 2 modern cities. We hired some bicycles and cycled round the top of the old city wall, which was good fun and gave us a good impression of the city. Inside the wall was the old part and outside the wall was the new part with high rise buildings etc.
We also took a trip from here to see the amazing Terracotta Warriors! This crazy Emperor spent most of his life preparing for his death by forcing thousands of men to make this whole army of statues to take with him to the grave. Didn't realise they were so detailed and discovered so recently either - the guy who found them was there signing autographs! It poured with rain all day here.
