Wauw China! I’ll never forget you. When you are in China as a backpacker it is easy to travel. Trains, subway, busses and airplanes are good. The local bus is only one or two rmb. The subway is also 2 RMB. The long distance busses are not realy expensive and have good connections. The train is amazing. I prefer the hardseat for the normal and long trips (over 7 hours) and the hard sleeper for the real long distances. The hard sleeper is a bed and is sometimes better than a cheap hostel. I think China is a save coutry to backpack and travel. Hostels are cheap and the staff is nice. They want to help you with everything. Just ask for a note for the bus, train or other thing you need.
10 RMB is 1.30 euro
When you’re lucky the people who sell the traintickets speak English. The best way to arrange a trainticket is with a note from the hostel. Every hostel will write a note for you. It’s way easier with this note. Check before you go if there are traintickets en write the number of the train on the note aswell.
When you visit Xian a nice way option is to visit the Birdmarket in Muslim area. There are a lot of people selling stuff. You’ll see the weardest things like pills and even granates.
Named as World’s Most Dangerous Hiking Trail
Last days I spend wit two Swedish guys on Hua Shan mountain near Xian. We took the train early and walked up the mountain to the West Peak. On that point we booked a hostel an visit the real West Peak. The hostel was hard to sleep very cold and hard beds. At 4.30 we climbed via the central Peak to the East Peak to see the sunrise. It was cloudy so the sunset was nog that beautiful as we hoped. But after the sunset we tried the plankwalk. Thats a awesome expirience! Walk on plank with nothing beneath. We did the full round to see the other peaks. Now we are tired of the thousands of stairsteps and ready to grap a deserved beer at the hostel!
After a week of tours and sightseeing yesterday it was a day to chill. Went with my roommates to the trainstation to buy a ticket eated some new streetfood walked trough Xian to see the birdmarket. For lunch we tried another local restaurant. I like the dumplings! Mike learned me some Chinese words so now I can order beers count a little and say beauty. Thats always good to know š Today slept till 11.00 so thats nice I think I needed some sleep.
Chinese is very difficult because of the tone differences.
If you want a quantity of it you have to put ger behind it.
Because of the beers last night this morning a had a few terracotta warriors in my head who hammered my head so I had to bring them back š From Xi’an we took the subway and bus to get there. It’s amazing to see how many of them there are and all with different clothes and faces. Back in Xi’an we eated at a local restaurant. 35 rmb a person, tried some streetfood, fruit and took a electric tuk tuk to the hostel.
