Time for watching the imposing Sunrise
By DAISY | 11/29/2004 12:01:27 PM
I've posted the time schedule for Sunrise at http://community.travelchinaguide.com/mtip.asp?u=Daisy&i=0,7
In fact, to remember the simple period of time just will be OK!
Spring: 5:00 - 6:00 am
Summer: 4:30 - 5:20 am
Autumn: 5:00 - 5:20 am
Winter: 5:30 - 6:00 am
This should be much easier than the former one, ah? ^)^

Best time to Mt. Huashan
By DAISY | 11/29/2004 11:55:02 AM
April - Oct is the best time for climbing the Mt. Huashan. And also the crowded period, especially during the Golden One-Week Holiday of May Day and National Day.
And each lunar 15th of March (should be about May 4th in Gregorian calendar), the Pilgrimage Day, there will be held grand temple fair and celebration.

The special lines to Mt. Huashan
By DAISY | 11/29/2004 11:39:43 AM
For more option, take the special lines to Mt. Huashan from the East Square of Xian Station. The price should be RMB18.
As I know, in shoulder season, the 1st bus departs about 8:30 am ,and last 12:00 am; while in high season, the 1st 7:00 am, the last 14:00 pm.
The last returns from Huashan at the same day at 17:00 pm.
Please note the bus schedule^_^

To Mt. Huashan
By DAISY | 11/29/2004 11:32:33 AM
From the Xian Airport:
The Xian Inertnational Airport is about 138 km from Mt. Huashan. With the speedway, you would only spend one and half hours to get Huashan from the airport.
From the Railway Station:
Take off at the Huanshan stop, and take public bus to the scenic area, about RMB3.
From Xian Station, there have so many special lines to Huashan. According to the type of the vehicle, the price would be RMB11, RMB16, RMB18, RMB21 respectively.
Long-Distance Bus:
At the Tangdu Bus Station (at the Langle Zhonglu) of the eastern Xian City, you can take the bus to Huayin county where Huashan lies. About every 10 minutes, one bus starts off.
Single ticket: RMB15-20.

When to see the Warriors in Xian, see my experience...
By FFEJ | 10/29/2004 9:49:21 AM
When you visit the terra cotta warriors, do beware of the museum officials, who will charge you RMB 200 to take a picture of the reconstructed warriors. You may follow what I did: if the guards catches when you take the picture, just pretend to be Japanese and. Trust me, because it worked for me... Just for your reference : )

To the Xian Airport from the downtown
By DAISY | 10/25/2004 10:44:42 AM
Of course the shuttle bus is the ideal means to / from the airport, but you always should take about one hour to wait for the next one setting off if you are unfortunately miss one which is just leaving. Generally speaking, at most hotles, you can take the shuttle bus, but it is always difficult to find the hotle's exact loation near your location. With the time passing, and the flight takeoff time approaching...
So Taxi would be the best alternative. You should get to a fixed price before getting into the car. It should be RMB80 at most, and the toll (RMB5) shouldn't be paied by you.
