Xian Hotels and Travel Guide
 Xian (Read in Thai :
ซีอาน) served as the capital of China for over 1000 years and was home to thirteen dynasties. It was also the Eastern terminus of the ancient Silk Road.
Although due to warfare and constant political changes throughout the ages, not much of its former glory remains in the city and most visitors find Xian a rather grimy industrial city.
Xian has an international airport to the northeast of the city (Xi'an XianYang International Airport). This is around 25 km away from the city centre.
Most people use taxicabs or the airport bus to reach town from the airport. Be careful though, one of the airport buses (from the airport to the Drum Tower) will try their absolute best to sell you expensive plane tickets and then upon getting off the bus you'll be hounded by a few dozen more touts and a large concentration people begging for money that were all seemingly waiting for you to get off that bus. It's probably best to avoid this route and take the bus to the train station instead. see more
