Hi Steemit friends.
We are in Xi An. It was the Capital of China during the imperial period few thousand years ago. It is also where the silk road starts. It was called 'Chang An', you may have heard if you play the computer game ' Three Kingdoms'
This is the Bell Tower in the middle of the city
The city is very modern with big pedestrian walk path and lots of flowers and trees
The Bell tower in day time
It is really nice to explore a city with so much history of thousands of years and the historical buildings are preserved so well
Lots of space is needed, becouse there must be so much picutres and videos to capature

I have heard so much about the Silk Road and opening trade again with Europe. China has a huge advantage and now with cost efficient transportation, they will only grow and get stronger IMHO.

China is indeed the capital of Beijing that I am beautiful, especially when we see it at night, so many colorful lights decorate the historic buildings in that place.

That is a beautiful building! Chinese cities always seem so perfect right in the city center. In US cities there would be trash all over the place and hobos :-D Also I don't see any street performers in China either...

Thank you hotsauceislethal. That building is similar to Namdaemun in Korea but this one seems bigger with more lights. There are many cleaners working to clean the streets so there is no trash almost

Xi’an is a large city and capital of Shaanxi Province in central China. Once known as Chang’an (Eternal Peace), it marks the Silk Road’s eastern end and was home to the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties' ruling houses. At archaeological sites in Xi’an’s surrounding plains are the famed Bingmayong (Terra Cotta Army), thousands of life-size, hand-molded figures buried with China’s first emperor, Qin Shi Huang...
Cheers~~~

The Chinese architecture is one of those things I like about China. Term beautiful and artistically designed with lots of shiny and brightly coloured everything. While we are reserved with the colour combinations over here, our friends in the east just allow the colour play to flow.
