A Xian tour is likely to be revelation to westerners because there is still widespread ignorance of China. Usually people look back on history and wonder why they did not recognize change when it was happening. That is why a visit to a place like Xian could help ordinary people keep abreast of massive changes happening now.
Although East and west have drawn closer together in recent years the process is not yet complete. People with Caucasian features still draw glances and people look sideways at them in supermarkets to see what they are buying. In some parts of China villagers will stop and stare at foreigners. Bank consultants in the western world will still not know the name of the currency even of they work in the forex market.
The reasons why China fell behind the West from the Renaissance onwards are hotly debated. Admiral Zheng discovered the Americas and Australia well before the western explorers but some say that the Emperor ordered everything destroyed when the explorers returned to China. Such reticence is still evident in some Chinese quarters where people seem reluctant to discuss history.
There can be no doubt that the Bamboo Curtain erected in the era of communist dictatorships is steadily being dismantled and tourists and investors are looking eagerly into a fascinating world. Highly intelligent and developed people go about their business with efficiency born of a highly developed civilization.
The wonders of an ancient world are being revealed in the bright light of economic miracles that are taking place daily. For many people educated in western schools that largely ignored the history of China and its languages the views are breathtaking.
Tourists who have become alert to the tourist possibilities of China enjoy wonderful online opportunities to book and enjoy economical and culturally rich holidays. Xian is the capital of Shaanxi province and a city with an ancient past and population of about six million people.
In a developed tourist industry there are many destinations that have become threadbare and well trodden by numerous visitors. Chinese cities are ancient and populous but there is a freshness about them. The people are famously enthusiastic and spontaneous and the historic sites so old and extraordinary that they have the freshness of new discoveries. The Terra Cotta warriors and the Wild Goose Pagodas are the most famous but there are many other attractions that will make a Xian tour well worthwhile.
For a look at early history up close, take the Xian tour. The excitement of Terracotta Warrior Tours is a thrill to individuals who love historical experiences.
