What’s it like Living in Xi’an?

Nestled deep in the heart of China,you’ll find the ancient city of Xi’an,literally translated as ‘Western Peace’.It was the capital of China for over 400 years. This included the period of 618 – 907AD – China’s “golden age” under the Tang Dynasty. Although probably best known for the Army of Terracotta Warriors, Xi’an also boasts many sites of historical and cultural interest. However you can read this in any guidebook: we want to tell you what it’s really like living and working here in2007.Although experiencing rapid development, Xi’an is still a very traditional Chinese city of approximately 7 million people. Very few people speak English and, excluding KFC, you can count the number of Western restaurants on two hands. Don’t worry however: the food here is fantastic, varied and cheap. As one of a small group of foreigners living here, you will find yourself
being stared at as you walk down the street and will quite often hear surprised locals exclaim laowai, meaning foreigner.They’re not being rude: they’re just not used to seeing a Western face walking down the street.
Every day you will see sights which provoke a second glance, from elderly men playing majiang (mahjong) on the pavement to women practicing tai ji (tai chi), to the sound of traditional music first thing in the morning.
Throngs of children with red neckerchiefs pass you on their way to school and, of course, you never walk along a deserted pavement in this city.
When you live in Xi’an you really feel you are living in China every day.

Several have live music nightly and there are more than enough up-to-the-minute night clubs which attract hip clientele. You can buy 12 bottles of Western beer, such as Budweiser or Carlsberg, in these for 200 RMB. Western toiletries, shampoo, toothpaste, tampons etc. are no problem to buy. Mobile phones are extremely cheap to use and you can bring the handset you have from home. Cigarettes cost as little as 3 RMB for 20, a
