The most western city of China is currently
undergoing a huge transformation. New buildings, skyscrapers
made of glass and reflecting mirrors are being built,
new hotels and restaurant open, new roads and railroads
are being built. In short, the region is booming as
the central Chinese government is spending huge sums
to develop the region. The hilly surroundings of Urumqi
with mountain lakes and impressive valleys are interesting.
XIAN
SIGHTSEEING
BELL TOWER (ZHONG LOU)
The
Bell Tower, is a stately traditional building,
that marks the geographical center of the ancient
capital. From this important landmark extend East,
South, West and North Streets, connecting the
Tower to the East, South, West and North Gates
of the City Wall of the Ming Dynasty.The engravings
on the doors of the Tower reflect the decorative
fashion of Ming and Qing Dynasties, recounting
popular stories of ancient China.
TANG PARADISE
Tang
Paradise is located in the Qujiang Resort, southeast
of the Xian City, Shaanxi Province.In Tang Paradise,
another surprising man-made wonder is the water
film which claims to be the foremost in the whole
world. The screen of the movie is a film of water;
thus it can create a special kind of optical effect
which makes the frame tridimensional.
GREAT MOSQUE
The
Great Mosque in Xian is one of the oldest, largest
and best-preserved Islamic mosques in China and
its location is northwest of the Drum Tower (Gu
Lou) on Huajue Lane.In Xian, it is really well
worth a trip to see the Great Mosque, not only
for its centuries-old history but also for its
particular design of mixed architecture - traditional
Muslim and Chinese styles.
MOSLEM STREET (HUIMIN JIE)

as its name implies, Moslem Street is the hub
of the Moslem community in Xian City, Shaanxi
Province. Located beside the Drum Tower, it is
about 500 meters (about 547 yards) long from south

thing in common: the owners are all Moslems.
