| wow, i am impressed how fast i get postings on my questions...thx. well we will arrive by train on friday morning and go to shu yuan youth hostel. i have been reading many postings on this forum and think i know what i wanne see and where to go. i mean we two wanne have a chilly weekend, combining xian must sees with a happy, relaxing time. i am especially interested in the muslim quarter coz i love to eat yiang rou..hehehehe.. is there any nice chinese restaurant or tea house, where u can have a tea listening to some live traditional chinese music or seeing a dancing show or even chinese opera etc. but i am not talking of things like this tang paradise show...thats too much tourism like. |

| yes i called them already and they have plenty of room. wow this sounds all so fantastic...i am really excited. on the internet it says that you can actually take a bath in the hot springs. does it cost extra and we have to wear bathing suits and bring our own towels right? i plan to go to the terracotta army in the morning first and on the way back stop at the hot springs and take a nice relaxing bath....this is possible right? |
