Xi’an – Terracotta
Had a last minute trip to Xi’an this weekend. . .12 hour train ride south-east bound and you end up in the interesting city. Train ride isn’t that bad at all as long as you get a bedded room, which consists of 6 bunk beds in each room that you share with others. I arrived in the early morning, checked into the hotel, to then notice the room was relatively tiny so we requested a bigger room for a slight price increase roughly $58.00 total a night for a 4-star hotel. Shortly afterwards we headed to the tombs. . .
