Visiting Emperor Qin



























We went to Xian to visit the first real Emperor of China. We took the Bullet Train to Xian which traveled over 300 km per hour. At our hotel we had a whirlpool in our hottub and a cool pool. We went to a Prehistoric Village which was very old. The best part of Xian was seeing the Terracotta Warriors. I liked taking pictures of the ones without heads. I had fun pretending to be a Terracotta Warrior and Emperor Qin. We also saw the Big Goose Pagoda.








































I saw my future car outside our hotel. There was a really large Bell Tower in the middle of the city. We walked through the markets in the Muslim Quarter. I saw lots of interesting things like tongues and lungs (blech). We visited a Muslim Mosque which was really quiet. Xian has a really long city wall and we went cycling on it. I let Mom do most of the work when we were on the tandem bike. It was cool meeting an 'ancient' soldier, being a Chinese soldier, pretending to be Samson, but the best part was watching Spongebob Squarepants in Chinese!
