Xian

Xian has a population of 3.2M. It was originally called Chang'an. It was a thriving city of emperors, courtesans, poets, monks, merchants and soldiers. It was the beginning and end of Silk Road. I loved it here.
The central block of the city is bound by the City Walls. In the city centre is the Bell Tower.
My time in Xian was not long enough. I had to make the most of it with most days starting at 7.30am and finishing at 11 pm.
