Got to Xi'an City, still very cold. Went to a restaurant the first night and tried loads and loads of different dumplings.
Went to see the Terracotta warriors which was really cool. They have 3 massive pits which they've uncovered and the one has 6000 soldiers in. They were made 2000 years ago for an emperor which is buried and the idea was to put all these underground to protect the emperor. They were only uncovered about 40 years ago and every single one was completely smashed so they're having to restore them all.
They have a muslim quarter in Xi'an which has a market with loads of nice stuff and is geat to look around at night. A few of us went to get a Chinese massage which was brilliant and really funny cuz we were all in the same room having it done, definitely one of the highlights!
