I enjoyed the photos. It paints a realistic view of Xian and typical urban Chinese cities.

[Ex-Ithacan]

Wow, what a country. Your pics encompass many of the faces of urban China. The last series on the warriors is too cool. Thanks for the tour Raptor.

Amazing! Simply Amazing.

Definitely a place on my list of cities to visit while in China this coming year.

I could look at China threads just for the funky street lamps alone!

Ya, probably for poor central china cities. The coastal cities like shenzhen, hangzhou, shanghai don't look like that, even on street level.
