Xi'an was not in the original plan, but after noticing how close we were (only 14h by night train) to this famous location, small modifications to our route were made.
Xi'an is the ancient capital of China, the capital for Han and Qin dynasties. 1976 local farmer discovered by accident an army of pottery warriors, known as a Terracotta warriors - around 6000 life size figures lined up to go for battle. Nowadays this city is one of the top touristic destinations of China.
The ancient wall of Xi'an - 14km long - actually not ancient, it has been almost 100% rebuilt as tourist attraction in its original location. Wall fading in Chinese fog-smog.

Cooking food in front of an eating place. Flames bursting out from the fireplace.
Inside the eating place, next to our table fresh dumplings were made
