Question

   I’m planning to visit Xi’an for my vacation this summer. I’ll fly there on July 28 and stay there until August 6. First I want to see the old city wall. There are many old city walls in Xi’an in the past. But now there are only a few left. They are more than 700 years old. Lots of them were pulled down in the 1960s. People thought they were not useful and they made the traffic heavy and the streets crowded. Some of them were even dangerous. Today, our country is trying to build some of the old city walls again, because they can help us to remember our history.

   Second, I’m visiting Emperor Qin’s Terra Cotta Warriors (秦始皇兵马俑). It’s very famous in China. And I will take the camera with me. I’m taking photos there.

   I think my trip will be very interesting and I can’t wait for it.
