Hi Suzanne, I’m guessing you still have the vibe alive in you. Did you try any of the Xian food like the numerous dumplings?

I just got back from China and Xi’an was my favorite place. The Muslim Quarter needs at least a half day of wandering, of which I did not get. I did get a snapshot and found the area interesting and intriguing. Thinking about the history of the area really blows you away! Think–the Silk Road! Just imagine! You are in touch with such a wild part of history! Don’t miss it. I can’t wait to go back and experience it again.

I was travelling around China in 1993 for few months and found most part of China interesting as long as you get out of the cities. My partner and I always look for roadside food stall if available. They are cheap, delicious and unique in some way. We do not encounter any problem with our stomach. However, as Cate said, do be careful if you have a senstive stomachs.
