Travel Destinations of Xian (China).
China and India are the most populous countries on the planet. Formerly communistic, China turned very capitalistic. This large country and great culture offers many superb touristy sites with the Great Wall (the only structure visible from the moon) being the most famous. Beijing, Shanghai, Guilin and Xian in particular are worth a visit. China has excellent, very fast trains and travel has become really easy. Hong Kong and Taiwan are listed separately.
Xian is an old city mostly known for the archeological finds of the Terracotta Army, a real size stone army where real people and horses are said to have posed to be carved in stone. The stone wall around the city centre also makes Xian quite unique.
