So, you’re in Xian and you need a little break from all your Terracotta-ing. Thanks to a bullet train that began late last year, it now only takes less than two hours to get to Luoyang – one of the most celebrated historical areas in all of China. The Terracotta warriors go back to the second century BCE, but Luoyang has been an important historical site since the Neolithic period. You can get in, see Luoyang, and get back for cocktails in Xian if you know how to do it.
