Proto Scooters Wheels

xi'an - the former capital of the empire!

hey
one-man-man, that was again 'ne ...
action, then, yann (some might know him, the lovable half-French and good friend) I had some time ago his itinerary by given by china. two or three weeks back-packing. because we thought "I was in china, he in china" because you have to meet yet again. if you the in Germany for far too rare hinbekommt, then at least here. Well, and how the then so, if you do not care drum, this will also stop anything. well, in any case he was already a few days in Beijing, and Wednesdays I never imagined the key figures of his journey looked again. Thursday from Beijing to Xi'an. "I was not working because I want to go" I've thought of me. wg-over to my colleagues. "Bernd here, what about that? To Xi'an tomorrow! Broadcast times to let flights travel agent!" said, done, off to the travel agency and in the evening at 7 we had the tickets in hand. still fast 'ne yann hostel booked modest, to say that we meet in Xi'an, suitcase packed and down in the fall. The next morning, the airport's direction at 6:30!



we really should be three hours before arriving in Xi'an yann, then wanted to take in the city! but well, how's luck would have it - we were late! and how long? exactly three hours - is 'yes' n ding! So there we stood in xi'an at baggage claim and who was coming down the other side of the hall the escalator. well, yann stop! First a warm welcome ...



so on in the city to the hostel. we arrived just in the city, and what makes bernd? can first steal his wallet - idiot! everything in it been, passport, plane tickets, international insurance, debit card, studi-pass, € 200, and so on ... oh man! first called the German embassy in Beijing, then off to the police station. long story! well, falling on each, we were on our way to the next office so as a temporary passport to apply for smear calls, since the police. wallet was recovered! everything in it except the cash. oh man - certainly more fortunate than gahabt understand! bernd and has never been so happy about the fact that it has been stolen € 200 ...

the next day we went to the terracotta warriors. has yet actually mr china-Emperor Qin Shi Huang 'ne massive terracotta army combat in his grave chamber can. I'll do maybe later times when it's ready. So, really what!





on we went over the huge areal. and lo and behold, a small demonstration! as alternate but sometimes I do! real touristy photo holder ...



evening we went a bit through the city ...





On Saturday, sight-seeing was announced in the city!

yann's flight was already Sunday morning - next to shanghai. Bernd and I had the airport in the evening, so we made our city wall in the direction!



on the city wall could be rented for 20 yuan (€ 2) bikes and leave so that the entire 13km of the wall. of course we have made - even the 'old town' of Xi'an!



evening then the flight home!
